Samuel KizitoProscovia NabunyaFred M SsewamalaPublished in: Journal of pediatric psychology (2023)
Our study showed preliminary evidence that G-CBT and MFG might have contributed to improved ART adherence among ALHIV. Moreover, G-CBT is a low-cost alternative to expensive individual therapy, especially in low-resource settings. The results warrant the need for more extensive studies to better understand the role of these interventions in the routine care of ALHIV. The trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.Gov (#NCT04528732).
