Trois extraits de la suite Kaddish
A Distraction to the Game”
News media play a crucial role in shaping the public's understanding of sexual violence (SV), yet media outlets continue to offer inadequate definitions/representations of SV. The present study demonstrates how Canadian media informs the public about SV perpetrated by male athletes. A total of 273 news articles from six major English and French newspapers were analyzed. Data was collected from two periods: before the #MeToo movement (2014-2016) a…

Correlates of Using Medically-Authorized Cannabis in a Large Cohort of People Living with HIV Who Use Cannabis
We're still alive, much to everyone's surprise”
Trans and non-binary older adults living with dementia experience forms of marginalization, pathologization, and discrimination embedded in epistemic violence that leads them to be mistreated and dismissed as knowledgeable subjects. Based on empirical findings from a Canadian study examining the experiences of trans and non-binary people living with dementia and their carers, we combat this epistemic violence by focusing on the first-hand narrati…
« Nous devons lutter si fort pour défendre nos droits et ceux de nos proches »
Cet article rend compte des résultats empiriques d’une étude canadienne examinant les expériences des personnes qui prennent soin d’une personne trans ou non binaire vivant avec une démence. Dans une approche trans-affirmative, anticapacitiste, anti-âgiste et intersectionnelle, ces résultats comblent une lacune importante dans la littérature. Quatre entrevues narratives révèlent l’existence de caractéristiques uniques associées au rôle de proche …
Forgotten lives
There is little research at the international level to help us understand the experiences and needs of trans people living with dementia, despite population aging and the growing numbers of trans people including the first cohort of trans older adults. There is a need to understand the widespread barriers, discrimination and mistreatment faced by trans people in the health and social service system, and the fears trans people express about aging …
Influence of previous experience with and beliefs regarding anal cancer screening on willingness to be screened among men living with HIV
Men generally had positive beliefs and were willing to undergo screening, though there were differences by sexual orientation and racial identity. Tailored community-led initiatives could focus on men's understanding of their risk and expectations of anal cancer screening to facilitate participation

Des vies oubliées
Il y a quelques années, l’histoire d’Hélène Tremblay-Lavoie, une Franco-Canadienne vivant avec la maladie d’Alzheimer qui menait sa vie exclusivement en anglais depuis 30 ans, avait fait la manchette après qu’elle soit « retournée vers le français, sa langue maternelle » (Waldie, 2018), ce qui lui rendait l’accès aux soins de santé en anglais difficile. Des changements de la mémoire et du langage sont observés chez les personnes vivant avec une d…
I’ve always been the one who drops everything”
Based on findings from a Canadian-based study, this article examines the stories of young adult women carers. Young adult women caring for a parent or grandparent were interviewed using social network maps, participant-driven photography and care timelines. The findings reveal numerous impacts on the women’s lives, which we categorise according to three temporal periods: the past (how they came to be carers); the present (their daily realities of…
Intergenerational Care in the Context of Migration
This article, reporting on a Canadian-based research project, tells the stories of three first- and second-generation, racialized, young women from immigrant families in order to illuminate their unique realities of intergenerational care and to better understand the role of gender, racialization, and migration in shaping their lived experiences of care. Using a feminist-informed adaption to the intersectional life-course approach, we explore the…
Forgotten Wishes
Literature on the topic of trans older adults has documented a few anecdotal cases in which some trans people living with dementia forgot they transitioned and reidentified with their sex assigned at birth (“detransition”). Trans communities and their allies have encouraged trans people to engage in end-of-life planning, including the preparation of legal documents that state their wishes regarding gender identity and expression in the event of “…

Ethics of Covid-19-related school closures
COVID-19 mitigation strategies have led to widespread school closures around the world. Initially, these were undertaken based on data from influenza outbreaks in which children were highly susceptible and important in community-wide transmission. An argument was made that school closures were necessary to prevent harm to vulnerable adults, especially the elderly. Although data are still accumulating, the recently described complication, pediatri…
We build vacations into everyday life”
This article proposes a reimagining of the concept of carer respite. It explores the role of place in eliciting restorative experiences for carers and reconsiders the mechanism of ‘respite as an outcome’. Findings from a Canadian-based study about dementia carers’ experiences in their neighbourhoods illustrate that everyday places, whether in the home or in the social or built environment of the neighbourhood, facilitate their connections to them…

Validation of an Algorithm to Identify Infective Endocarditis in People Who Inject Drugs
INTRODUCTION: Infective endocarditis is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is concern that the incidence of infective endocarditis associated with people who inject drugs (PWID) is increasing. However, it is difficult to monitor population-wide trends in PWID-associated infective endocarditis, as there is no International Statistical Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) code for injection drug use. To add…

The Impact of Caregiving
Using an adapted phenomenological approach, the current study explores older women’s stories about the ways in which providing care to their spouse or partner has affected their sexual and intimate lives. Findings suggest that older women’s sexual identities and experiences of sexuality are marked by both ageist constructions of “older woman as asexual” and loss of self associated with taking on the role of caregiver. Findings also suggest that w…
Highly active anti-retroviral therapy in the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV in rural Zimbabwe during the socio-economic crisis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in preventing mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in breastfeeding women in rural Zimbabwe. During a severe socio-economic crisis in 2005-2007, 82 eligible HIV-positive pregnant women between 14-36 weeks gestation were initiated on HAART with AZT/3TC/nelfinavir combination therapy at a rural hospital and continued through to six mont…

Ethical Dilemmas of Working with Individuals Who Have HIV Disease
This article presents the results of a survey of 99 practitioners that explored their attitudes related to the conflicting priorities of maintaining the principles of confidentiality, versus exercising one's duty to warn someone of danger. Social work practitioners face this dilemma in working with individuals who have HIV disease. When clients let workers know that they are engaging in unsafe sexual practices, and have not warned their partner o…
