A Participatory Mixed-Methodology Study of HIV and STI Testing Barriers Among Latino College Students in the California Inland Empire
Transportation, administrative burden, and Covid-19: A structural intersectional analysis of barriers to HIV care among Black sexual minority men living with HIV in the US South
While much research has focused on individual (e.g., mental health, substance use) and structural factors (e.g., stigma, institutional racism) driving HIV inequities, less studied are the macro-structural factors like policies governing healthcare and transportation. Using the framework of structural intersectionality, we explore how transportation barriers and administrative burden - the experience of accessing safety net services as burdensome …
The Effect of Behavioral Regulation on Condomless Anal Sex Among Young Sexual Minority Men: Influences of Sex-Related Substance Use, Partnership Type, and PrEP Use
Dimensional Reduction in Barriers and Facilitators to Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Uptake Willingness for Full-Service Sex Workers
LAI-ART Awareness, Willingness, Barriers and Facilitators among Black Sexual Minority Men Living with HIV in the US South
Black sexual minority men (BSMM) continue to bear a disproportionate burden of HIV in the United States, with the highest incidence and prevalence in the southern region of the country. In Texas, BSMM living with HIV (BSMM+) have the lowest rates of viral suppression of all SMM and have lower antiretroviral treatment (ART) adherence than white and Hispanic SMM. Long-acting injectable ART (LAI-ART) can potentially overcome several barriers to dail…
Facilitators and Barriers to Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Uptake Willingness for Full-Service Sex Workers: A Social-Ecological Approach
Full-service sex workers (FSSWs) are at heightened risk of contracting HIV due to facing multi-level challenges to sexual health. This study investigated factors associated with willingness to use Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP)-a daily HIV preventative medication, among FSSWs. Using social-ecological theory, an online survey was developed with initial guidance from a local sex worker advocacy organization to assess barriers and facilitators to P…
Differential Associations of Depressive Symptomology to HIV Care Engagement Among Young Black Sexual Minority Men with HIV (YBSMM+) in the US South: A Multi-Group Analysis of Mood, Intimate Partner Vi…
Psychosocial Syndemic Classes and Longitudinal Transition Patterns Among Sexual Minority men Living with or Without HIV in the Multicenter Aids Cohort Study (Macs)
Engaging African Americans Living with HIV and Serious Mental Illness: Piloting Prepare2Thrive—A Peer-Led Intervention
Background: African American individuals living with HIV (AALWH) and serious mental illness (SMI) represent a vulnerable intersectional group with relatively poor health. These individuals may require consistent treatment engagement to manage both of their chronic conditions; however, due to multilevel factors they are relatively less likely to engage in treatment consistently
Engaging African Americans Living with HIV and Serious Mental Illness: Piloting Prepare2Thrive—A Peer-Led Intervention
This study provides initial evidence for the feasibility of a CBPR-designed and tested, peer-led psychoeducation and behavioral intervention aiming to improve treatment engagement among AALWH and SMI, a marginalized group who could benefit from additional communitybased health research efforts
