Social risk factors for medication nonadherence: findings from the CARDIA study.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the combined effect of social risk factors on medication nonadherence. Using data from the Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study, the results showed that low income and chronic stress are associated with medication nonadherence, and that the odds of nonadherence increase with the accumulation of social risk factors. These findings may assist with developing risk prediction tools to identify individuals who can benefit from adherence-promoting interventions.

Uptake and virological outcomes of single- versus multi-tablet antiretroviral regimens among treatment-naive youth in the HIV Research Network.
Researchers studied the impact of single-tablet regiments (STRs) versus multi-tablet regimens (MTRs) in the treatment of HIV with youth with HIV (YHIV) in the HIV Research Network between the ages of 13 and 24. The use of STRs was associated with greater compliance in their antiretroviral regiments and better outcomes over an 8-year period (2006-2014) at 18 US HIV clinical sites.
