  • Community-level Social Vulnerability and Cervical Cancer Mortality Among Young and Old Adults in the State of Alabama

    Open AccessP G Patel, Sabrina Chowdhury et al.ARTICLEJournal of Community Health2025

    In addition to individual factors, differences in community-level factors impact mortality rates of cervical cancer (CC), especially in the Southeast United States, where CC one-year mortality is significantly higher than national average. This study investigated the association between community-level social vulnerability measured using the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) and overall and one-year CC …

  • Facilitators and barriers to anal cancer screening among men with HIV and their providers in Alabama

    Anna Junkins, Kristina Wilbekin Walker et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2025

    Anal cancer, primarily caused by persistent high-risk HPV infection, is increasing worldwide. Men who have sex with men (MSM) and men with HIV (MWH) have incidence rates over ten-fold the rate among the general population. We explored health beliefs related to anal cancer, and perceived benefits, barriers, and facilitators to screening among MWH and their HIV care providers in the U.S. South, where HIV incidence remains high. We conducted in-dept…

  • Integration of cervical cancer screening into healthcare facilities in low- and middle-income countries

    Open AccessRahel Nega Kassa, Desalegn Markos Shifti et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2024

    Cervical cancer is a prevalent disease among women, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where most deaths occur. Integrating cervical cancer screening services into healthcare facilities is essential in combating the disease. Thus, this review aims to map evidence related to integrating cervical cancer screening into existing primary care services and identify associated barriers and facilitators in LMICs. The scoping review e…

  • Sexual risk characteristics, social vulnerability, and anal cancer screening uptake among men living with HIV in the deep south

    Anna Junkins, M C Kempf et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2024

    Without standard guidelines, there is a critical need to examine anal cancer screening uptake in the South which has the highest HIV incidence in the U.S. We identified factors associated with screening among men living with HIV (MLHIV) at a large academic HIV outpatient clinic in Alabama. Relationships between sociodemographic, clinical, sexual risk characteristics and screening were examined using T-tests, Fisher’s exact, Chi-square, and logist…

  • Evaluation of video-assisted HPV education in government-supported clinics in Western Kenya

    Open AccessHaley Dion, Hanul Choi et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2023

    Despite prevalent preventative methods of human papillomavirus (HPV), cervical cancer remains the foremost cause of cancer-related death among women of reproductive age in Western Kenya. HPV self-sampling is a preventative measure that can improve accessibility and availability to cervical cancer screening. Correct education about HPV is crucial to combating stigma and increasing HPV screening uptake. In this study, we evaluated the workflow impa…

  • Disability-adjusted life years associated with chronic comorbidities among people living with and without HIV

    Open AccessNi Gusti Ayu Nanditha, Jielin Zhu et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Life span of people living with HIV (PLWH) has increased dramatically with the advent of modern antiretroviral therapy. As a result, comorbidities have emerged as a significant concern in this population. To describe the burden of chronic comorbidities among PLWH and HIV-negative individuals in British Columbia (BC), Canada, we estimated disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) related to these comorbidities. Based on a population-based cohort in B…

  • Cervical Cancer Screening Cascade for women living with HIV

    Open AccessKatayoun Taghavi, Ardele Mandiriri et al.ARTICLEPLOS Global Public Health2022

    Countries with high HIV prevalence, predominantly in sub-Sahahran Africa, have the highest cervical cancer rates globally. HIV care cascades successfully facilitated the scale-up of antiretroviral therapy. A cascade approach could similarly succeed to scale-up cervical cancer screening, supporting WHO’s goal to eliminate cervical cancer. We defined a Cervical Cancer Screening Cascade for women living with HIV (WLHIV), evaluating the continuum of …

  • Geographical and Racial Disparities in Head and Neck Cancer Diagnosis in South-Eastern United States

    Open AccessAmrita Mukherjee, Adeniyi J Idigo et al.ARTICLEHealth Equity2020

    Background: Rurality, race, and age at diagnosis are important predictors in head and neck cancer (HNC) prognosis. However, literature on the associations of rurality and race with age at HNC diagnosis is limited. Data on geographical, racial, and gender disparities in young HNC patients (diagnosed ≤45 years) are also scarce. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study assesses rural–urban, racial, and gender disparities in age at HNC diagnos…

  • Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Schedule

    Demetria Hubbard, Sadeep Shrestha et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Public Health2020Referencias: 18

    Objectives. To determine rates of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine adherence to the 2011 and 2016 Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommendations in the United States. Methods. We conducted a retrospective cohort study by using the 2011 to 2017 Marketscan data for beneficiaries aged 9 to 26 years who had at least 1 claim for HPV vaccination between January 1, 2011, and January 1, 2017. According to the 2011 ACIP recommendat…

  • A qualitative study on factors impacting HIV care adherence among postpartum HIV-infected women in the rural southeastern USA

    Amelia K Boehme, Susan L Davies et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2014

    Declines in HIV care and treatment adherence among HIV-infected women from pregnancy to the postpartum period have significant implications for the clinical outcomes and overall well-being of HIV-infected women, especially due to immunosuppression during the postpartum period. While the overall increased risk for mortality associated with HIV care discontinuation is well established, the reasons for HIV care nonadherence among HIV-infected postpa…
