Transactional sex and risk for HIV infection in sub‐Saharan Africa
Revisiting the understanding of “transactional sex” in sub-Saharan Africa
In sub-Saharan Africa, young women ages 15-24 have more than twice the risk of acquiring HIV as their male counterparts. A growing body of epidemiological evidence suggests that the practice of "transactional sex" may contribute to this disparity. Over the last 15 years, the social sciences have contributed significantly to understanding the meaning of and motivations for this practice. The findings from these studies are rich, but varied, render…
Alcohol and fatal life trajectories in Russia
The study provides a unique insight into the personal decline that lies behind the extremely high working-age mortality due to heavy drinking in Russia, and highlights how health status and hazardous drinking are often closely intertwined with economic and social functioning. Descriptions of the development of drinking careers, hazardous drinking patterns and treatment experiences can be used to plan effective interventions relevant in the Russia…
HIV and risk environment for injecting drug users
HIV infection and risk behaviour of primary fentanyl and amphetamine injectors in Tallinn, Estonia
Obstacles in provision of anti-retroviral treatment to drug users in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia
Methods to Recruit Hard-to-Reach Groups
Evidence suggests rapid diffusion of injecting drug use and associated outbreaks of HIV among injecting drug users (IDUs) in the Russian Federation and Eastern Europe. There remains a need for research among non-treatment and community-recruited samples of IDUs to better estimate the dynamics of HIV transmission and to improve treatment and health services access. We compare two sampling methodologies "respondent-driven sampling" (RDS) and chain …
Social-Cognitive Predictors of Consistent Condom Use Among Young People in Moscow
CONTEXT: Russia is experiencing an explosive HIV epidemic, and young people aged 15–29 have the highest incidence of infection. Understanding factors associated with condom use in this age-group is important in developing effective prevention interventions. METHODS: Telephone interviews were conducted with 1,203 Muscovites aged 15–29 in September 2002 to assess condom use, HIV knowledge and sexual behavior. Multivariate logistic regression was us…
