Internalized HIV-Related Stigma and Breast Health Beliefs Among African-American Women Receiving Care for HIV in the USA
Moderating Factors in an Anti-stigma Intervention for African American Women with HIV in the United States
Risk and protective factors of posttraumatic stress disorder among African American women living with HIV
We sought to examine risk and protective factors for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among African American women living with HIV. This is a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a randomized trial of an HIV stigma reduction intervention. We examined data from two-hundred and thirty-nine African American women living with HIV. We examined whether age, marital status, level of education, internalized HIV-related stigma, and social su…
HIV-Related Stigma and Viral Suppression Among African-American Women
Enacted HIV-related stigma and breast-health beliefs and practices among African American women living with HIV
Reducing HIV-related stigma among African American women living with HIV is a priority to improve HIV-specific health outcomes, but may also impact other health beliefs and practices. Testing this hypothesis is important because African American women experience worse health outcomes, including for breast cancer. This study examines the relationship between enacted HIV-related stigma and breast health beliefs and practices and the mediating effec…
Neighborhood community characteristics associated with HIV disease outcomes in a cohort of urban women living with HIV
Recent studies have found geographic variations in immune and viral human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease outcomes associated with census measures of neighborhood poverty and segregation. Although readily available, such aggregate census measures are not based on health behavior models and provide limited information regarding neighborhood effect pathways. In contrast, survey-based measures can capture specific aspects of neighborhood disadv…
Assessing stigma among African Americans living with HIV
We identified many advantages to using the scale, which demonstrated good psychometric properties when used with an audio computer assisted self-interview format and with an African American sample. We recommend this scale's use in both clinical practice and research study of HIV-stigma reduction interventions with African American populations
HIV Transmission Risk Behavior in a Cohort of HIV-Infected Treatment-Naïve Men and Women in the United States
Measurement of Neighborhood Context in an Urban Cohort of HIV-Infected or at Risk Low-Income Women
The study of neighborhood disadvantage and health relies on census socioeconomic data but would benefit from reliable survey measures of factors that influence health within low income communities. The Perceptions of Neighborhood Environment Scale (PNES) was developed for use in the general U.S. population, and its measurement properties in a cohort of low-income urban women living with or at risk for HIV are described. The scale and all but one …
Association of ongoing drug and alcohol use with non-adherence to antiretroviral therapy and higher risk of Aids and death
Drug and alcohol use have been associated with a worse prognosis in short-term and cross-sectional analyses of HIV-infected populations, but longitudinal effects on adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and clinical outcomes in advanced AIDS are less well characterized. We assessed self-reported drug and alcohol use in AIDS patients, and examined their association with non-adherence and death or disease progression in a multicenter observatio…
Gender differences in health-related quality of life in patients with HIV/Aids
Where to Seek Care
Though HIV/AIDS has spread to rural areas, little empirical evidence is available on where patients living in these areas receive care This article presents estimates of rural residents in care for HIV/AIDS, their demographic and health‐related characteristics, information about whether they receive care in a rural or urban setting, and data on the drug therapies prescribed The estimates come from the HlV Cost and Services Utilization Study (HCSU…
