Spectrum 2007 Overview and New Changes

Spectrum 2007Overview and New Changes

UNAIDS Reference Group on Estimates, Model and Projections

2007

Purpose

• Determine the consequences of the prevalence estimates made with EPP or Workbook– New infections, HIV+ population, AIDS deaths– Need for treatment and effects of treatment– Orphans and vulnerable children

New Features

1. New treatment options• Adults: 1st and 2nd line ART• Children: ART and cotrimoxazole

2. Updated progression periods• New infection to need for treatment• Need for treatment to AIDS death w/wo treatment

3. Expanded PMTCT options4. Calibrate to multiple national surveys5. Uncertainty analysis

Inputs required

Country data• Demographic data• Adult prevalence-------------------------• MTCT program

description• PMTCT coverage• Adult ART coverage• Child treatment

coverage

Epidemic patterns• Effect of HIV on fertility• Progression from infection to

need for treatment and to AIDS death

• Sex ratio of prevalence• Age distribution of infection• Mother-to-child transmission

rates by regimen and feeding options

• Effect of child treatment

Creating a new projection

Population Projection

Population Projection

Population Projection

The first year of the projection must be before the start of the AIDS epidemic, usually 1980

Population Projection

The last year of the projection can be anything up to 50 years, but it is best to match the prevalence estimate (2012 for EPP, 2007 for the Workbook)

Population Projection

Creates a projection using the UN Population Division’s World Population Prospects

Spectrum outputs

Various displays are available

Comparing effects

• Display up to four projections at one time

• Open same projection twice and rename to create comparison scenarios

Estimates of Need

Adult ART •Adults progressed to need for treatment•Simulates WHO guidelines

Child ART Children progressed to moderate-to-severe disease

Cotrimoxazole •Early detection–All HIV+ children

•No early detection–Children born to HIV+ mothers until 18 months–All HIV+ children over 18 months

PMTCT All births to HIV+ women

Plausibility Bounds

Plausibility Bounds

• Uncertainty around prevalence curve– EPP: read sampled curve from EPP .spu file– Workbook: generate 1000 logistic curve fits

by varying annual estimates according to data quality

Summary Table – Plausibility Bounds

Exercise

• Create a new demographic projection using EasyProj

• Read prevalence estimate from EPP or Projections Workbook

• Select appropriate patterns for Progression and Age/Sex Ratios

• Add data on coverage of PMTCT, ART and child treatment programs

• Review key indicators• Do uncertainty analysis
