Pre-crime, hyper-vigilance and the over-surveillance of migrant-heritage families in ‘FGM-safeguarding’ in England and Wales
This article investigates the role of pre-emptive policies and practices aiming to eliminate female genital cutting/mutilation (FGC/M) in England and Wales. We argue that the Serious Crime Act 2015, with its focus on pre-empting, uncovering and punishing FGC/M, represents a milestone in the development of a pre-crime society. By combining data collected from focus groups with migrant-heritage families living in Bristol in 2018 and data on state p…
Overdose Experiences among People Who Inject Drugs in West Virginia
Background: As overdose remains a major public health concern in the United States, it is important to understand the experiences people who inject drugs (PWID) have with overdose. Past experiences during such emergencies are an important determinant of future behavior, including help seeking, which can be lifesaving. Methods: We explored experiences with overdose, using data from 21 in-depth interviews collected from PWID in a rural county in We…
The Importance of Sexual Orientation in the Association Between Social Cohesion and Client Condom Coercion Among Women Who Exchange Sex in Baltimore, Maryland
Who Asks About HIV/STI Status
Mapping Interests in Event-Driven and Long-Acting Pre-exposure Prophylaxis Formulations onto the HIV Risk Environment of Street-Based Female Sex Workers
Understanding the longitudinal relationship between substance use and violent victimization among street-based women who exchange sex in Baltimore, Maryland
Acceptability of Overdose Prevention Sites in the Business Community in Baltimore, Maryland
Intervetions are urgently needed to reduce the trajectory of the US opioid overdose epidemic, yet implementation is often hampered by resistance or opposition from key community stakeholders. While businesses are economically and physically impacted by the opioid epidemic, they are rarely engaged in efforts to reduce its impact. The establishment of overdose prevention sites (OPS) is being discussed throughout many US jurisdictions with limited a…
Factors Associated with Sterile Syringe Acquisition among People Who Inject Drugs in West Virginia
BACKGROUND: Syringe services programs (SSPs) are evidence-based interventions that provide essential overdose and infectious disease prevention resources to people who inject drugs (PWID). Little research has examined factors associated with sterile syringe acquisition at SSPs among rural PWID populations. OBJECTIVES: We aim to identify factors associated with PWID in a rural county in West Virginia having recently acquired sterile syringes at an…
Awareness of and interest in oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV prevention and interest in hypothetical forms of PrEP among people who inject drugs in rural West Virginia
Injection drug use-associated HIV outbreaks have occurred in rural communities throughout the United States, which often have limited HIV prevention services for people who inject drugs (PWID). Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is one tool that may help fill gaps in HIV prevention programing in rural settings. Oral PrEP has been approved for use, and new PrEP formulations are under development. Research is needed to better understand interest in or…
The role of local business employees and community members in the HIV risk environment of female sex workers in an urban setting
Results show that both actors play important roles in FSWs' HIV risk environment. Businesses and community members are important targets for holistic HIV prevention interventions among FSW in communities where they coexist in close proximity
Factors Associated with Likelihood of Initiating Others into Injection Drug Use Among People Who Inject Drugs in West Virginia
Syringe Coverage Among People Who Inject Drugs in West Virginia, USA
Interpersonal Violence and Contraceptive Method Use by Women Sex Workers
Conceptualizing overdose trauma
Engagement in drug treatment following nonfatal overdose among people who inject drugs in Appalachia
Perspectives on Fentanyl Test Strip Use among People Who Inject Drugs in Rural Appalachia
Background: Fentanyl-associated overdose fatalities have increased dramatically throughout the United States. Fentanyl test strips (FTS) may be used by people who inject drugs (PWID) to lower overdose risks; however, virtually no research has been conducted to understand the perspectives of rural PWID in Appalachia on FTS utilization. Objectives: We aim to explore FTS awareness and potential use among PWID in two rural counties in West Virginia (…
Fentanyl Preference among People Who Inject Drugs in West Virginia
Background: Overdose fatality rates in rural areas surpass those in urban areas with the state of West Virginia (WV) reporting the highest drug overdose death rate in 2017. There is a gap in understanding fentanyl preference among rural people who inject drugs (PWID). The aim of this study is to investigate factors associated with fentanyl preference among rural PWID in WV. Methods: This analysis uses data from a PWID population estimation study …
Polysubstance use in rural West Virginia
Barriers and facilitators to retaining a cohort of street-based cisgender female sex workers recruited in Baltimore, Maryland, USA
Retention of street-based female sex workers required the simultaneous use of diverse retention strategies that were tailored to participant characteristics. With familiarity of the dynamic nature of the study population characteristics, resources can be appropriately allocated to strategies most likely to result in successful retention
Short-term interruptions to sex work among a prospective cohort of street-based cisgender female sex workers in Baltimore
Entry to Sex Trade and Long-Term Vulnerabilities of Female Sex Workers Who Enter the Sex Trade Before the Age of Eighteen
Barriers and Facilitators to PrEP Use Among People Who Inject Drugs in Rural Appalachia
Correlates of Transactional Sex Among a Rural Population of People Who Inject Drugs
Estimating the Number of People Who Inject Drugs in A Rural County in Appalachia
Objectives. To demonstrate how we applied the capture–recapture method for population estimation directly in a rural Appalachian county (Cabell County, WV) to estimate the number of people who inject drugs (PWID). Methods. We conducted 2 separate 2-week periods of data collection in June (“capture”) and July (“recapture”) 2018. We recruited PWID from a syringe services program and in community locations where PWID were known to congregate. Partic…
Urban air pollution, health, and equity
Air pollution and equity Over the past decade, an ever increasing number of epidemiological studies have linked urban air pollution, particularly particulate matter, to increased risk for morbidity and mortality.1,2 These new findings have led to revised air pollution standards for the United States and they will probably have similar consequences in other countries around the world. This new evidence on adverse health effects of air pollution ha…
