High Prevalence of Unhealthy Alcohol Use Among Persons with HIV, Viral Non-suppression and Any Alcohol Use in Mbarara, Uganda
Unhealthy alcohol use is associated with HIV viral non-suppression. It is unclear how common unhealthy alcohol use is among non-suppressed persons with HIV (PWH) who drink alcohol. We conducted chart reviews to recruit PWH in Uganda with recent viral non-suppression for a study on the efficacy of gabapentin for promoting viral suppression among those with unhealthy alcohol use. Of the 288 PWH screened, 87% self-reported unhealthy alcohol use on t…
Who could benefit the most from long-acting antiretroviral therapy? perspectives of HIV care providers and people with HIV in Florida
Injectable cabotegravir/rilpivirine (CAB/RPV) is now available, and other long-acting antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens are in development. The present study describes the factors that HIV care providers and people with HIV (PWH) in Florida (a high HIV incidence and prevalence setting) consider when assessing populations of PWH who could benefit from long-acting ART. We conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews with 11 providers (27% n…
Exploring how women with HIV develop hazardous drinking patterns
Women with HIV identified emotional and social factors as primary drivers of hazardous drinking across their lifespan. Interventions that address coping strategies and enhance social support may be beneficial in reducing alcohol use in this population
Examining the Psychometric Properties of a Revised 40-Item Berger HIV Stigma Scale
Over the past decades, as social contexts and knowledge about HIV have evolved, the conceptualization and understanding of HIV stigma, as well as the measures used to assess it, may have also shifted. This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of a revised version of the Berger scale which updated language to better capture HIV stigma in the Southern U.S. The revisions were informed by focus group discussions with people with HIV (PW…
Assessing HIV-related stigma in the clinical setting
HIV-related stigma is a key contributor to poor HIV-related health outcomes. The purpose of this study is to explore implementing a stigma measure into routine HIV care focusing on the 10-item Medical Monitoring Project measure as a proposed measure. Healthcare providers engaged in HIV-related care in Florida were recruited. Participants completed an interview about their perceptions of measures to assess stigma during clinical care. The analysis…
Who wants long-Acting injectable antiretroviral therapy? Treatment preferences among adults with HIV in Florida
Long-acting injectable (LAI) antiretroviral therapy (ART) is available to people with HIV (PWH), but it is unknown which PWH prefer this option. Using the Andersen Behavioral Model this study identifies characteristics of PWH with greater preference for LAI ART. Cross-sectional data from the Florida Cohort, which enrolled adult PWH from community-based clinics included information on predisposing (demographics), enabling (transportation, income),…
Spatial and temporal analysis of HIV clinical outcomes in Florida reveals counties with persistent racial and ethnic disparities during 2012-2019
There is persistent, spatially heterogeneous, racial/ethnic disparity in HIV clinical outcomes in Florida. This disparity could not be explained by socio-ecological factors, suggesting that further research on modifiable factors that can improve HIV outcomes among Black and Hispanic PWH in Florida is needed
Antiretroviral Therapy Concealment Behaviors and their Association with Antiretroviral Therapy Adherence among People with HIV
Negative Consequences of Alcohol Use among People Living with HIV
Introduction: Among people living with HIV (PLWH), alcohol use can have negative impacts beyond HIV-related outcomes. The objectives of this study are to identify the most common alcohol-related consequences among PLWH in Florida and describe factors associated with experiencing more alcohol-related consequences. Methods: Data were collected from PLWH in the Florida Cohort study who drank at least monthly in the past year (n=397). Self-reported c…
