Intersecting stigma and sexual relationships among minoritised sexual minority men and nonbinary individuals assigned male at birth in Boston, USA
In the USA, Latino, Black, and other ethnically or racially minoritised sexual minority men and nonbinary individuals assigned male at birth experience a disproportionate burden of HIV and significant stigma that can impede HIV prevention. Understanding how stigma shapes sexual relationships and networking is critical for informing HIV prevention efforts. We conducted interviews with 18 ethnically or racially minoritised sexual minority men and n…
The Syndemic Effects of Food Insecurity, Depression, and Gender-Based Violence on HIV Treatment Outcomes Among People with HIV in Zimbabwe
“I Feel Like there’s a Politician in the Room”
State-level abortion bans enacted after Dobbs v. Jackson may have a deleterious impact on the health of women and may increase maternal morbidity and mortality. In obstetrics-gynecology, strong patient–physician relationships, which are built via patient-centered care strategies, are associated with better pregnancy-related outcomes. Abortion bans may limit physicians’ ability to utilize these strategies by restricting care that can legally be pr…
Development and preliminary inter-rater reliability of the new PROOF tool to measure fidelity of problem-solving therapy for depression delivered by non-specialists in a low-resource African setting
Problem-solving therapy (PST) is a brief psychological intervention often implemented for depression. Currently, there are no tools with well-evidenced reliability to measure PST fidelity. This pilot study aimed to measure the inter-rater reliability and agreement of the Pro blem-S o lving Therapy F idelity (PROOF) scale, comprising binary 14-item adherence and an 8-item competence subscales. Transcripts were from the TENDAI trial, a Zimbabwe-bas…
Medical uncertainty in the shadow of Dobbs
Recent changes to United States medical practice following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Dobbs v Jackson Woman's Health Organization have led to new forms of medical uncertainty arising from the interpretation and implementation of state law. Post-Dobbs legal restrictions are particularly challenging because they entail multiple forms of uncertainty that intensify when combined, with risks to pregnant patients and to the clinicians who car…
Sources of moral distress among obstetrician-gynecologists after Dobbs
Since the US Supreme Court's 2022 decision in Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health Organization, 18 states have enacted functional bans on abortion, yet little is known about how these laws contribute to workplace stress and its sequelae among clinicians. The purpose of this study was to characterize sources of moral distress—which occurs when a clinician knows the right course of clinical action but is barred from taking that action by external constr…
A Longitudinal Examination of HIV Risk Perception Accuracy among Sexual Minority Men with History of Childhood Sexual Abuse
Sexual Networking and HIV/STI Prevention Among Men who have Sex with Men and Identify as Persons of Color in the Era of Covid-19 in Boston, MA
Chronic pain and substance use disorders among older sexual minority men living with HIV
HIV continues to be a critical health issue for sexual minority men (SMM) in the USA. Chronic pain is common in individuals with HIV, including older SMM, and is associated with substance use behaviors. This cross-sectional study sought to address a gap in the literature by characterizing interrelationships among chronic pain, substance use disorders (SUDs), medication adherence, and engagement in HIV care among older (≥50) SMM living with HIV an…

The impact of depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms on physical health perceptions and functional impairment among sexual minority men living with HIV with histories of trauma
Mental health symptoms may compromise health-related quality of life (HRQOL), including among men who have sex with men (MSM) living with HIV, who experience high rates of trauma and other stressors. This study sought to examine the relative contributions of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, depression symptoms, and biological indices of HIV disease status on HRQOL in this population. Participants were 79 MSM with HIV (49% White; 35…
Stigma, discrimination, and substance use among an urban sample men who have sex with men in Massachusetts
Men who have sex with men (MSM) who have intersecting stigmatized identities or characteristics are differentially at risk for acquiring HIV. However, the relationships between specific identities, discrimination and stigma, and HIV risk behaviors require investigation to develop more effective interventions. Data from Boston’s 2014 National HIV Behavioral Surveillance MSM cycle were used to assess associations between socio-demographics, structu…
