“I'm still on that dark path, but I can see the red road in the distance
Awareness, acceptance, and impact of undetectable equals untransmittable (U = U) among people living with HIV across Canada
Undetectable equals Untransmittable (U = U) is a pivotal tool for HIV prevention, stigma reduction, and improving quality of life for people living with HIV. This study examined awareness, acceptance, and impact of U = U among people living with HIV across Canada, and explored differences across sociodemographic characteristics. From 2018-2024, 1,083 participants were recruited in-person and online using snowball sampling. Peer researchers conduc…
We are aspiring to something that is not achievable by natural means’
This study examines the socio-cultural dimensions of anabolic-androgenic steroid use among queer men in Winnipeg, Canada, addressing a gap in research that often focuses on risks and harms. Using qualitative methods, 17 semi-structured interviews were conducted with current, former, and potential anabolic-androgenic steroid users. Findings reveal that anabolic-androgenic steroid use extends beyond individual health risks, acting as a 'technology …
Qualitatively-Driven Mixed-Methods Health Research Protocol
This qualitatively-driven, mixed-methods study explores the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing, treatment, and linkage to care in Manitoba, Canada. Building on the “Landscape of Risk” study, a population-level quantitative analysis examining associations between COVID-19 vaccination and HIV/sexually transmitted and blood borne infection (STBBI) testing, this protocol describes the qua…
First Nations People Living With HIV
First Nations people living with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in Canada face a range of complex barriers during a time when infection rates are increasing. The Northern HIV Journey Mapping Project explored this issue from the perspectives of both First Nations people living with HIV and the health care service providers who support them. Drawing from an Indigenous-led, decolonizing methodology, this study adopted the philosophies of Two…
Qualitative Methods Case Study
This study presents a case study using MAXQDA, a Computer-Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS), to analyze interview data within the Northern HIV Journey Mapping Project, which explored the experiences of Indigenous people living with HIV in Manitoba, Canada. By adapting patient experience mapping and process mapping methods, the research team traced participant journeys through the HIV Care Cascade, identifying barriers and facil…
The thing I’m missing the most is just being around other queer people”
This study supports the line of research on minority stress, biosociality, and place by highlighting some potential links between 2SGBQ + men's mental health and their social and physical environments. This research points to important role of safe community spaces, events, and community organizations that support 2SGBQ + men's mental health
Sources of knowledge and truth related to anabolic/androgenic steroid use among two-spirit, gay, bisexual, queer, and other men who have sex with men
The complexities of seeking and evaluating information highlight the privileged nature of trustworthy, accurate information on the topic. Risk-as a discursive regime-places 2SGBQ+ male AAS users in the position to produce lay knowledge and cultivate their own "truths" on the topic, which can lead to preventable harm. Public health needs to address these biopolitical effects by considering these lay forms of knowledge as an untapped resource and d…
