Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We conducted a study of the acceptability and feasibility of a web application which was designed to empower people living with HIV to manage their daily antiretroviral therapies. The application (VIH-TAVIE) consists of four interactive computer sessions with a virtual nurse who guides the user through a learning process aimed at enhancing treatment management capacities. The information furnished and the strategies proposed by the nurse are tailored, based on the responses provided by the user. The application was evaluated in a hospital setting as an adjunct to usual care. The participants (n = 71) had a mean age of 47 years (SD = 7.6). There were 59 men and 12 women. They had been diagnosed with HIV some 15 years earlier and had been on antiretroviral medication for a mean duration of 11 years. Data were collected by acceptability questionnaires, field notes and observations. Most participants found the application easy to use. They learned tips for taking their medication, diminishing adverse side-effects and maintaining a positive attitude towards treatment. Many participants deemed their experience with the application highly satisfactory and felt that it met their needs with respect to strategies and proficiencies despite their long experience of medication use. The results of the study support the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
