Street-level bureaucracy and relational autonomy in HIV status-neutral care implementation
High prevalence of criminal legal involvement among non-fatally injured ED patients – an exploratory retrospective observational cohort analysis
BACKGROUND: Individuals who have been incarcerated are at high risk of death by homicide after release from carceral settings. Our study aimed to assess the prevalence of criminal legal system involvement (CLSI) among non-fatal violently injured patients enrolled in a hospital-based violence intervention (HVIP) program and describe demographic and clinical characteristics specific to this population. METHODS: This is an exploratory retrospective …
“Everybody thinks that it won’t happen to them”
Barriers and facilitators to implementing status-neutral HIV care in an urban jail system
BACKGROUND: People who use drugs face barriers to accessing HIV prevention tools. The status-neutral model for HIV care starts with the HIV test and offers linkage to HIV treatment if the person tests positive and linkage to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) if the person tests negative. The goal of this study was to evaluate barriers and facilitators impacting the implementation of a status-neutral HIV model of care in the jail setting. METHODS: B…
Methamphetamine Use and HIV Risk Behaviors in a Cohort of Homeless-Experienced Adults Who Use Drugs
Incarceration history and HIV testing among people who inject drugs in the Boston metro area
The persistent incidence of HIV among people who inject drugs (PWID) underscores the urgency for HIV prevention efforts to end the HIV epidemic. Little is known about the role carceral settings play as touchpoints for HIV testing in this population. The objectives of this study were to characterize patterns and sources of HIV testing among PWID and to understand how carceral facilities fit into this population’s HIV testing landscape. Secondary a…
Offering is not enough
BACKGROUND: Eliminating infectious diseases epidemics requires resources for testing, prevention, and treatment in jails. The 2022 Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention guidelines recommend offering hepatitis C virus (HCV), HIV, and STI testing at jail intake. Currently, the impact of offering testing at intake in jails has only been analyzed in the context of multi-modal strategies to increase testing. There is a lack of real-world data ab…
Examining Antimicrobial Stewardship Program Implementation in Carceral Settings
Antimicrobial resistance is a global threat that inequitably affects minoritized populations, including Black, Latinx, and Indigenous people-especially in carceral settings-and is largely driven by inappropriate antimicrobial prescribing practices. People whose identities are minoritized are more likely to be incarcerated, and people who are incarcerated experience higher disease risk than people who are not incarcerated. This article draws on a …
Four Models of Wastewater-Based Monitoring for Sars-CoV-2 Complementing Individual Screening in Jail Settings
Objectives. To describe 4 unique models of operationalizing wastewater-based surveillance (WBS) for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in jails of graduated sizes and different architectural designs. Methods. We summarize how jails of Cook County, Illinois (average daily population [ADP] 6000); Fulton County, Georgia (ADP 3000); Middlesex County, Massachusetts (ADP 875); and Washington, DC (ADP 1600) initiated WBS betwee…
Increased Mortality of Black Incarcerated and Hospitalized People
Implementation of rapid Covid-19 testing at Massachusetts trial courts
The Burden of Untreated HCV Infection in Hospitalized Inmates
Health care workers in Africa access a broad range of topics using evidence-based online medical information
Health care workers (HCW) rely on Internet-based medical resources to obtain current evidence-based clinical guidelines. While such resources are being used with increasing frequency in developed countries, they have not been broadly employed in resource-limited settings (RLS). To investigate the feasibility and the types of medical content used by HCW in RLS, we studied one Internet-based medical resource used in the United States, (UpToDate©) i…
