Correlates of ART adherence among male sex workers (MSW) in Kenya
BAOJ HIV, Vol.2

Abstract
Given the relevance of antiretroviral therapy (ART) treatment to improving life expectancy and preventing the spread of drug-resistant strains, many studies have attempted to predict causes of adherence and non-adherence in order to design strategies that reduce the number of missed doses. Methodologically, there is growing agreement that patients’ self-assessments of adherence—through interviews or self-administered questionnaires—show significant correlation with viral load tests. Little is known about the level of ART adherence among male sex workers (MSW) in Kenya; particularly in Nairobi. This study was aimed to determine the level of adherence to antiretroviral therapy and associated factors among MSW.
