Nutrition support for HIV-TB co-infected adults in Senegal, West Africa: A randomized pilot implementation study by Noelle A. Benzekri (200520)

“…</p><p>Conclusion</p><p>The implementation of nutrition support for HIV-TB co-infected adults in Senegal is feasible and may provide an effective strategy to improve adherence, treatment completion, and clinical outcomes for less than 1 USD per day. Further studies to determine the impact of nutrition support among a larger population of HIV-TB co-infected individuals are indicated.…”
