DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall aim of the project is to develop and extend the infrastructure already in place at the Agincourt Health and Population Unit (AHPU) at the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) in Johannesburg, South Africa and at the University of Colorado ? Boulder (CU) to: 1) Improve infrastructure and build capacity for social science AIDS research at AHPU/Wits; 2) Evaluate the introduction of ART in rural South Africa by using the Agincourt Health and Demographic Surveillance System (AHDSS) longitudinal data to examine socioeconomic differentials in uptake of and adherence to treatment and short-term effects of treatment, including impacts on affected individuals and their families (specifically elders); and 3) Study the socioeconomic effects of AIDS by conducting research projects on the measurement of and models for HIV prevalence and mortality; the socioeconomic impacts of AIDS on individual, family and community (including elderly); and evaluation of HIV intervention (prevention) programs, and how they change the socioeconomic impacts of AIDS. All studies will take advantage of and benefit from the ongoing records of the Agincourt Health and Demographic Surveillance System and the work of the Wits AHPU.

描述(由申请人提供)：该项目的总体目标是发展和扩展南非约翰内斯堡威特沃特斯兰德大学阿金考特健康和人口股(AHPU)和科罗拉多大学现有的基础设施。博尔德(CU)：1)改善基础设施，建设AHPU/Wits的社会科学艾滋病研究能力；2)利用AkinCourt卫生和人口监测系统(AHDSS)的纵向数据，评估南非农村地区采用抗逆转录病毒疗法的情况，以检查接受和坚持治疗的社会经济差异和治疗的短期效果，包括对受影响的个人及其家庭(特别是老年人)的影响；以及3)通过开展关于艾滋病毒流行率和死亡率的衡量和模型的研究项目，研究艾滋病的社会经济影响；艾滋病对个人、家庭和社区(包括老年人)的社会经济影响；以及对艾滋病毒干预(预防)方案的评估，以及它们如何改变艾滋病的社会经济影响。所有研究都将利用和受益于阿金库尔健康和人口监测系统的持续记录以及WITS AHPU的工作。
