Global coverage of interventions for reduction of injecting drug use-related harm, HIV, viral hepatitis and tuberculosis in prisons and other carceral settings
Australian National Health and Medical Research Council
The global epidemiology of injecting drug use, HIV, viral hepatitis and tuberculosis among people who are incarcerated
Australian National Health and Medical Research Council
Piloting a simplified bio-behavioural survey methodology, the BBS-Lite, among people who inject drugs in Georgia
Repeated surveys of people who inject drugs
HIV surveillance is the continuous, systematic collection, analysis and interpretation of HIV-related data needed for the planning, implementation, and evaluation of the HIV response. Some communities are affected by HIV more than others and require more focused responses; one of these communities are people who inject drugs (PWID.) We reviewed HIV surveillance among PWID across all countries. We identified countries with specific repeated survey…
Developing and implementing national health identifiers in resource limited countries
Many resource-limited countries are scaling up health services and health-information systems (HISs). The HIV Cascade framework aims to link treatment services and programs to improve outcomes and impact. It has been adapted to HIV prevention services, other infectious and non-communicable diseases, and programs for specific populations. Where successful, it links the use of health services by individuals across different disease categories, time…
Global Trends of Monitoring and Data Collection on the HIV Response among Key Populations Since the 2001 UN Declaration of Commitment on HIV/Aids
Male sex workers
Prevalence of HIV Risk Behaviors among Undocumented Central American Immigrant Women in Houston, Texas
Effectiveness of Respondent Driven Sampling to Recruit Undocumented Central American Immigrant Women in Houston, Texas for an HIV Behavioral Survey
HIV Testing Behaviors Among Undocumented Central American Immigrant Women in Houston, Texas
Bridging Populations—Sexual Risk Behaviors and HIV Prevalence in Clients and Partners of Female Sex Workers, Bangkok, Thailand 2007
Public health triangulation
Nonetheless, we believe that public health triangulation allows for the interpretation of data sets that cannot be analyzed using meta-analysis and can be a helpful adjunct to surveillance, to formal public health intervention research and to monitoring and evaluation, which in turn lead to improved national strategic planning and resource allocation
HIV risk and the overlap of injecting drug use and high-risk sexual behaviours among men who have sex with men in Zanzibar (Unguja), Tanzania
Sampling Hard-to-Reach Populations with Respondent Driven Sampling
Cost effective and targeted prevention, intervention and treatment programs for hard-to-reach populations at risk for HIV and other infections rely on the collection of quality data through biological and behavioral surveillance surveys (BBSS). Over the past decade, there has been a global expansion of BBSS to measure the prevalence of HIV and other infections, and related risk behaviors among injecting drug users, males who have sex with males, …
Échantillonnage déterminé selon les répondants pour les populations difficiles à joindre
La mise en place de programmes ciblés et aux coûts maîtrisés de prévention, d'intervention et de traitement des populations difficiles à joindre à risque d'infection par le VIH ou d'autres infections repose sur la collecte de données de qualité au moyen d'enquêtes de surveillance comportementale et biologique (ESCOMB). Au cours des dix dernières années, les ESCOMB visant à mesurer la prévalence du VIH et d'autres infections, des comportements à r…
The Associations of Voluntary Counseling and Testing Acceptance and the Perceived Likelihood of Being HIV-Infected Among Men with Multiple Sex Partners in a South African Township
An Empirical Comparison of Respondent-driven Sampling, Time Location Sampling, and Snowball Sampling for Behavioral Surveillance in Men Who Have Sex with Men, Fortaleza, Brazil
Prevalence of Infection with Hepatitis B and C Viruses and Co-infection with HIV in Three Jails
Rapid Ethnographic Assessment of HIV/Aids among Garífuna Communities in Honduras
Garífuna, an Afro-Caribbean ethnic group in Honduras, have among the highest HIV prevalence rates in Central America; 15- to 49-year-old Garífuna have HIV rates comparable to heterosexual transmission rates in regions of sub-Saharan Africa. The heightened rates in this age range pose a significant risk of vertical transmission from woman to child at birth. In 2006, a Behavioral Surveillance Survey plus Biomarkers (BSS+) reexamined seroprevalence …
Effectiveness of Respondent–Driven Sampling for Recruiting Drug Users in New York City
Trends in Hepatitis B Virus, Hepatitis C Virus, and Human Immunodeficiency Virus Prevalence, Risk Behaviors, and Preventive Measures among Seattle Injection Drug Users Aged 18–30 Years, 1994–2004
The mental health status of Mayan refugees after repatriation to Guatemala
Psychiatric morbidity was common among the repatriated Mayans. The repatriation of refugees involves moving an already vulnerable, often traumatized population back to a place of distressing memories and still-unsettled conditions. There is a need to consider and plan for adequate mental health services for repatriating refugees
Recent condom use by arrested injection drug users in King County, Washington, USA
Implementation and Analysis of Respondent Driven Sampling
Those who engage in illegal or stigmatized behaviors, which put them at risk of HIV infection, are largely concentrated in urban centers. Owing to their illegal and/ or stigmatized behaviors, they are difficult to reach with public health surveillance and prevention programs. 1 These populations include illicit drug users, sex workers and men who have sex with men. Development and implementation of adequate prevention services targeting hidden po…
Assessment of Respondent Driven Sampling for Recruiting Female Sex Workers in Two Vietnamese Cities
Respondent driven sampling (RDS) is a relatively new method to sample hard-to-reach populations. Until this study, female sex workers (FSWs) in Vietnam were sampled using a variety of methods, including time location sampling (TLS), which may not access the more hidden types of FSWs. This paper presents an analysis from an HIV biological and behavioral surveillance survey to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of RDS to sample FSWs, to deter…

Living with infertility
This paper explores the perceived causes of infertility, treatment-seeking for infertility and the consequences of childlessness, particularly for women, among a predominantly Muslim population in urban slums of Dhaka in Bangladesh. In-depth interviews were conducted with 60 women and 60 men randomly selected from Urban Surveillance System clusters of the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh. Case studies of 20 self-pe…

Prevalence and Incidence of HIV, Hepatitis B Virus, and Hepatitis C Virus Infections Among Males in Rhode Island Prisons
Objectives. We evaluated prevalence and intraprison incidence of HIV, hepatitis B virus, and hepatitis C virus infections among male prison inmates. Methods. We observed intake prevalence for 4269 sentenced inmates at the Rhode Island Adult Correctional Institute between 1998 and 2000 and incidence among 446 continuously incarcerated inmates (incarcerated for 12 months or more). Results. HIV, hepatitis B virus, and hepatitis C virus prevalences w…
