HIV non-occupational postexposure prophylaxis in a Canadian province: treatment completion and follow-up testing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Provincial guidelines for HIV non-occupational postexposure prophylaxis (NPEP) were implemented on January 2005 in Alberta, Canada. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) NPEP was provided free of charge following approval by a medical officer of health. Between 1 January 2005 and 30 June 2007, 174 individuals were prescribed NPEP; 135 (78%) were women with a median age of 24 years. Sexual assaults accounted for 68% of exposures. NPEP was completed in 49% of cases. Individuals who completed NPEP were less likely to have been exposed by sexual assault (P = 0.04) and more likely to have received HIV follow-up testing (P = 0.03).Individuals who received at least one HIV follow-up test were older (P = 0.03) and more likely to have been exposed percutaneously (P = 0.003). Those who received no follow-up testing were less likely to have filled an NPEP prescription (P = 0.0001). New strategies are required to improve follow-up of individuals receiving NPEP, especially younger persons or sexual assault survivors.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
