Preliminary Findings on the Association Between Symptoms of Depression and Adherence to Antiretroviral Therapy in Individuals Born Inside Versus Outside of Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For optimal health, people living with HIV (PLWH) need to adhere to antiretroviral therapy (ART). We explored the relationship between symptoms of depression and ART adherence for PLWH born inside versus outside of Canada. PLWH taking ART (N = 57) completed self-assessments of depression and adherence to ART. Adherence rates did not differ significantly for PLWH who were born outside (66.7% were ≥95% adherent) versus inside Canada (51.6% were ≥95% adherent), but the relationship between symptoms of depression and ART adherence depended on the country of birth: for individuals born in Canada, depression was associated with lower ART adherence (β = -.21, p = .005, 95% confidence interval -.35 to -.07); for PLWH born outside of Canada there was no association between symptoms of depression and ART adherence. Symptoms of depression may not universally affect ART adherence; country of birth may be one critical variable impacting this relationship.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
