Summary

This study tests a behavioral program designed to reduce stigma and improve healthcare engagement among people newly diagnosed with HIV in Indonesia. Participants attend counseling sessions adapted for a Muslim-majority population. Researchers measure changes in perceived stigma, medication adherence, and clinic attendance.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a behavioral stigma-reduction program adapted for a Muslim-majority population
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical way to improve HIV care engagement and reduce stigma in similar cultural settings.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with 110 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, so its effects can vary widely.
