Behavioral and Clinical Characteristics of Self-Identified Bisexual Men Living with HIV Receiving Medical Care in the United States-Medical Monitoring Project, 2009-2013
Nationally representative data comparing demographic, risk, and clinical information among bisexual men with other MSM or heterosexuals are lacking. We described differences in demographic characteristics, behaviors, and clinical outcomes among self-identified HIV-positive bisexual, gay, and heterosexual men receiving HIV medical care in the United States. We analyzed data from the 2009-2013 cycles of the Medical Monitoring Project (MMP), a surve…
Prevalence of Internalized HIV-Related Stigma Among HIV-Infected Adults in Care, United States, 2011–2013
Delayed entry into HIV medical care in a nationally representative sample of HIV-infected adults receiving medical care in the USA
Before widespread antiretroviral therapy (ART), an estimated 17% of people delayed HIV care. We report national estimates of the prevalence and factors associated with delayed care entry in the contemporary ART era. We used Medical Monitoring Project data collected from June 2009 through May 2011 for 1425 persons diagnosed with HIV from May 2004 to April 2009 who initiated care within 12 months. We defined delayed care as entry >three months from…
Erectile Dysfunction Medication Prescription and Condomless Intercourse in HIV-Infected Men Who have Sex with Men in the United States
Human Immunodeficiency Virus Transmission at Each Step of the Care Continuum in the United States
IMPORTANCE: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission risk is primarily dependent on behavior (sexual and injection drug use) and HIV viral load. National goals emphasize maximizing coverage along the HIV care continuum, but the effect on HIV prevention is unknown. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the rate and number of HIV transmissions attributable to persons at each of the following 5 HIV care continuum steps: HIV infected but undiagnosed, HIV di…
Cigarette Smoking Prevalence Among Adults With HIV Compared With the General Adult Population in the United States
BACKGROUND: The negative health effects of cigarette smoking and HIV infection are synergistic. OBJECTIVE: To compare the prevalence of current cigarette smoking and smoking cessation between adults with HIV receiving medical care and adults in the general population. DESIGN: Nationally representative cross-sectional surveys. SETTING: United States. PATIENTS: 4217 adults with HIV who participated in the Medical Monitoring Project and 27 731 U.S. …
Weighted Multilevel Models
Recent advances in statistical software1 have enabled public health researchers to fit multilevel models to a variety of outcome variables. Multilevel models facilitate inferences regarding unexplained variability among randomly sampled clusters of units (e.g., hospitals) in outcomes of interest and identify covariates that explain the variance in a given outcome at each level of a particular data hierarchy (e.g., patients within hospitals).2,3 M…
Excess Burden of Depression among HIV-Infected Persons Receiving Medical Care in the United States
BACKGROUND: With increased life expectancy for HIV-infected persons, there is concern regarding comorbid depression because of its common occurrence and association with behaviors that may facilitate HIV transmission. Our objectives were to estimate the prevalence of current depression among HIV-infected persons receiving care and assess the burden of major depression, relative to that in the general population. METHODS AND FINDINGS: We used data…
Differences in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Care and Treatment Among Subpopulations in the United States
IMPORTANCE: Early diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, prompt linkage to and sustained care, and antiretroviral therapy are associated with reduced individual morbidity, mortality, and transmission of the virus. However, levels of these indicators may differ among population groups with HIV. Disparities in care and treatment may contribute to the higher incidence rates among groups with higher prevalence of HIV. OBJECTIVE: T…
