Should WHO-prequalified antigen-antibody fourth-generation rapid diagnostic tests be used to detect acute HIV infection? A systematic review and meta-analysis of diagnostic performance

2026-03-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Diagnostics have become the fundamental backbone of HIV prevention, treatment and long-term retention in care, and are critical to achieving the 95-95-95 UNAIDS targets. To effectively reach underserved and remote populations, diagnostic technologies must be cost-effective, robust, user-friendly and suitable for settings with limited infrastructure. Among available testing modalities, rapid...
