Correlates of duration between initial drug use and first drug injection among people who inject drugs in Iran, 2020
The transition to injection drug use among PWID in Iran often occurs within a decade of initial drug use and is influenced by demographic, social, and psychological factors. Prevention strategies should focus on early intervention for at-risk youth, address mental health needs, and leverage peer influence. Policymakers should prioritize evidence-based, multi-faceted approaches that target both individual and structural factors to delay or prevent…
The prevalence of homelessness and its associated factors among people who inject drugs in Iran
Homelessness among people who inject drugs (PWID) represents a significant and complex public health challenge. However, few studies have investigated the factors contributing to its prevalence, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa region. We aimed to determine homelessness’s prevalence and associated factors among PWID in Iran from July 2019 to March 2020 and between May and August 2023. This study analyzed data from two national sur…
Self-perception of risk for HIV acquisition among people in prisons in Iran
A notable gap exists between actual HIV risk behaviors and self-perceived risk among people in prisons in Iran. Targeted prison-based educational interventions are essential to improve risk awareness and promote HIV prevention behaviors among this marginalized population
HIV Prevalence and Related Factors among Female Sex Workers in Iran
Drug use and unsafe injection among adults who live in prisons in Iran
Non-fatal Overdose Prevalence and Associated Factors among People Who Inject Drugs in Iran
Self-reported lifetime Hepatitis B virus testing, and vaccination uptake among people who inject drugs in Iran
Our study highlighted the low prevalence of HBV testing and vaccination uptake among PWID in Iran. It is essential to understand and address the obstacles preventing PWID from getting tested and vaccinated for HBV. Addressing these barriers could significantly reduce the burden of HBV among this socio-economically marginalized population
Sexualized Substance Use among Female Sex Workers in Iran
Background: Female sex workers (FSWs) are at higher risk of HIV due to high-risk sexual and drug use related behaviors. This study characterized sexualized substance use among FSWs in Iran. Methods: In 2015, 1,337 FSWs were recruited from centers for vulnerable women and through outreach efforts in 13 major cities in Iran. Data were collected via face-to-face interviews from consenting FSWs on a range of socio-demographic and behavioral character…
Correlates of quality of life and mental health among youth experiencing homelessness in Iran
This study highlights that QOL and mental health among youth experiencing homelessness in Iran are concerning, particularly among those who were older, were less educated, were living on the street, and had a history of carrying a weapon. Community-based programs, including mental health care and affordable housing are needed to improve QOL and mental health among this population in Iran
Characterizing People Who Inject Drugs with no History of Opioid Agonist Therapy Uptake in Iran
A National Study of Suicidal Ideation and Suicide Attempt Among Incarcerated People in Iran
HIV Prevalence and Related Behaviors Among People Who Inject Drugs in Iran from 2010 to 2020
An on-site community-based model for hepatitis C screening, diagnosis, and treatment among people who inject drugs in Kerman, Iran
Our integrated on-site community-based HCV care model within a DIC setting suggested that HCV care including HCV testing and treatment uptake can be successfully delivered outside of hospitals or specialized clinics; a model which is more likely to reach PWID and can provide significant progress towards HCV elimination among this population
Willingness to utilize supervised injection facilities among people who inject drugs in Iran
Frequency, correlates and consequences of early sexual intercourse among Iranian men who inject drugs
