The Association of Mental Health and Substance Use With Retention in HIV Care Among Black Women in Washington, District of Columbia
Mixed Methods Analysis of Telehealth Experience, Satisfaction, and Quality of Care During the Covid Pandemic Among Persons with HIV in Washington, DC
Risk of Severe Covid-19 Disease and the Pandemic’s Impact on Service Utilization Among a Longitudinal Cohort of Persons with HIV-Washington, DC
Improvements in Virologic Control Among PWH Over Time
Diabetes mellitus control in a large cohort of people with HIV in care-Washington, D.C
With more effective antiretroviral therapy (ART), people with HIV (PWH) are living longer and have more chronic diseases, including diabetes mellitus (DM). The prevalence of DM has been estimated in PWH previously, however there is less research regarding DM control. Our objectives were to determine the prevalence of DM and DM control and determine factors associated with DM control in a large urban cohort of PWH in care. We examined DC Cohort pa…
Disrupting the Systems
A world without HIV is only possible by addressing the socio-structural determinants of health. Our understanding of socio-structural determinants is constantly changing, and parallel changes must occur with the methodologies used to explain the drivers of the HIV epidemic. We argue for the need to engage communities in the planning, implementation, and dissemination of research on the socio-structural determinants of HIV. Community engagement sh…
Identifying Spatial Variation Along the HIV Care Continuum
Fostering a Public Health of Consequence
An editorial is presented which addresses the concept of a public health of consequence in America, and it mentions the author's views about how career guidance and mentorship, multisectoral work, and the ability to lead and follow can impact the careers of public health practitioners as of 2017. The role of a public health worker as a mentor is examined, along with career changes and opportunities to work in various sectors such as the governmen…
Disparities in achieving and sustaining viral suppression among a large cohort of HIV-infected persons in care – Washington, DC
One goal of the HIV care continuum is achieving viral suppression (VS), yet disparities in suppression exist among subpopulations of HIV-infected persons. We sought to identify disparities in both the ability to achieve and sustain VS among an urban cohort of HIV-infected persons in care. Data from HIV-infected persons enrolled at the 13 DC Cohort study clinical sites between January 2011 and June 2014 were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate l…
Temporal association between expanded HIV testing and improvements in population-based HIV/Aids clinical outcomes, District of Columbia
In 2006, the District of Columbia Department of Health (DC DOH) launched initiatives promoting routine HIV testing and improved linkage to care in support of revised the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) HIV-testing guidelines. An ecological analysis was conducted using population-based surveillance data to determine whether these efforts were temporally associated with increased and earlier identification of HIV/AIDS cases and imp…
Use of Geosocial Networking (GSN) Mobile Phone Applications to Find Men for Sex by Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM) in Washington, DC
Childhood Sexual Abuse and HIV-Related Risks Among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Washington, DC
Correlates of frequency of HIV testing among men who have sex with men in Washington, DC
In Washington, DC, the leading mode of HIV transmission is through men who have sex with men (MSM) behavior. This study explored differences between frequent HIV testers (men testing at least twice a year) and annual or less frequent testers (men testing once a year or less) in DC. Nearly, one-third of MSM reported testing for HIV at least four times in the prior two years. In the multivariable model, frequent testers had significantly higher odd…
HIV Among Women in the District of Columbia
HIV Testing Among Heterosexuals at Elevated Risk for HIV in the District of Columbia
Correlates of Group Sex Among a Community-Based Sample of Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM) in Washington, DC
Oral versus anal sex at last encounter – behavioral differences among men who have sex with men in the District of Columbia
Oral sex may be used as a form of harm reduction against HIV transmission. We compared characteristics of men who have sex with men (MSM) in Washington, DC having oral sex versus those having anal sex at last encounter. Data collected through National HIV Behavioral Surveillance in 2008 using venue-based sampling were used. Men ≥18 years old disclosing MSM behavior in the past year were analyzed (n=500); OraQuick and Western Blot confirmation wer…
Differing HIV Risks and Prevention Needs among Men and Women Injection Drug Users (IDU) in the District of Columbia
Update and Overview of Practical Epidemiologic Aspects of HIV/Aids among Injection Drug Users in the United States
Efficacy of a brief case management intervention to link recently diagnosed HIV-infected persons to care
OBJECTIVE: The Antiretroviral Treatment Access Study (ARTAS) assessed a case management intervention to improve linkage to care for persons recently receiving an HIV diagnosis. METHODS: Participants were recently diagnosed HIV-infected persons in Atlanta, Baltimore, Los Angeles and Miami. They were randomized to either standard of care (SOC) passive referral or case management (CM) for linkage to nearby HIV clinics. The SOC arm received informati…

Delivery of HIV Prevention Counseling by Physicians at HIV Medical Care Settings in 4 US Cities
Objectives. We investigated physicians’ delivery of HIV prevention counseling to newly diagnosed and established HIV-positive patients. Methods. A questionnaire was developed and mailed to 417 HIV physicians in 4 US cities. Results. Overall, rates of counseling on the part of physicians were low. Physicians reported counseling newly diagnosed patients more than established patients. Factors associated with increased counseling included having suf…
