Family-centered interventions for people with substance use disorders in low-and middle-income country settings: A scoping review
BACKGROUND: Substance use disorders (SUD) present a significant global health challenge, impacting people who use drugs (PWUD) and their families. While family-centered interventions have shown positive outcomes in high-income countries, their application in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) remains unexplored. This scoping review sought to synthesize existing research evaluating family-centered interventions for PWUD in LMICs. METHODS: A c…
Undetectable = Untransmittable (U = U) Awareness and HIV Treatment Optimism Among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Mumbai, India
Little is known about Undetectable=Untransmittable (U = U) awareness among MSM in India. We analyzed baseline survey data from MSM (N = 1004) in an mHealth HIV testing trial in Mumbai and Thane, India. We assessed factors associated with U = U awareness and agreement (HIV treatment optimism) using multivariable Poisson regression. U = U awareness (29%) was associated with English survey completion, searching for sexual health information online, …

The effects of immune status and race on health service use among people with HIV disease
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between CD4 lymphocyte count and health service use, and to determine whether differences in the rates of service use between Whites and people of color could be identified. METHODS. Medical records for 571 HIV-infected individuals were analyzed. Incidence rates and relative rates across CD4 strata (defined by cell counts) were calculated for inpatient and outpatient events. Ra…
Adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse and subsequent risk of HIV infection
BACKGROUND: Epidemiologic description of long-term adverse health effects of childhood sexual abuse is lacking, despite estimates that perhaps 30 percent of adults have experienced sexual assault in childhood. METHODS: In an adult cohort enrolled to investigate causes of transmission of human immunodeficiency virus, we identified current behaviors affecting risk of infection that were associated with a history of early sexual abuse. One hundred a…

Migration and the Journey to Work
Special census tabulations obtained for Rhode Island permit analysis of the interrelation between residence, commuting, and migration. Although the central cities provide job opportunities for persons living well beyond their boundaries, most people in the suburbs and the outlying areas live fairly close to their place of work. Moreover, within the respective zones, purely local migration takes place independent of changes in job location. For th…
