Abstract:

The systematic review aimed to characterize HIV prevention interventions that included adult women and developed in low and middle-income countries after 1996, identifying how they covered individual, social and programmatic vulnerabilities. The databases were accessed1997 to July 2016 and ed studies that included adult women, with combined strategies or not, excluding biomedical or mass media interventions. Thus, were ed 72 interventions developed in 32 countries most of in African countries and in upper-middle income, with 26 focusing on women only. Among 64 interventions that evaluated results in behavioral, psychosocial, biomedical, knowledge on HIV/STI and use of health services areas 62 reported positive but also non-effect results. Few of them reported reduction in HIV/STI incidence (n = 9), in partner numbers (n = 12), stigma and violence reports (n = 7). The content analysis of the interventions showed that the majority (n = 51) contemplated only individual vulnerabilities. It discusses the need to strengthen preventive approaches targeting structural determinants of the epidemic, encompassing the social contexts of women in a relational and intersectional perspective of vulnerabilities.
