Adaptation of an Intervention Addressing Barriers to PrEP Use Among Pregnant Women in Zimbabwe
The purpose of this study is to develop a multi-level PrEP adherence and persistence intervention as an adaptation of the TENDAI ('grateful' in Shona) program, a problem-solving approach to reduce depression and increase HIV treatment adherence among people living with HIV in Zimbabwe. The new intervention, TENDAI4PrEP, will be designed …

Predictors of Aspirin Failure in Preeclampsia Prevention
Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (including preeclampsia) are among the leading causes of pregnancy complications and maternal deaths worldwide. They also increase the risks to the babies. Numerous interventions have been suggested in order to reduce the rate of preeclampsia. Low-dose aspirin is the most beneficial prophylactic approach in this regard. …

Effects of Moderate Carbohydrate Consumption on Metabolic and Obstetric Outcomes in Pregnant Women with Insulin-treated Diabetes- a Randomized Controlled Trial
Diabetes during pregnancy increases maternal and fetal complications, necessitating optimal glycemic control. The standard care diet (SCD, ≥175g/day carbohydrate) lacks robust evidence, particularly for pregnancies requiring intensive insulin treatment (IIT). This RCT investigates whether a moderate carbohydrate diet (MCD, ≤120g/day) versus SCD improves glycemic control and alters metabolomic profiles in …
