Intersectional Stigma and Health of People Living with HIV on ART Who Use Alcohol in Southwestern Uganda
HIV, TB, and alcohol use are stigmatized conditions that lead to poor care engagement and health outcomes. Stigmatized traits can operate independently or be intersectional. We examined the relationships between intersectional HIV-, TB-, and alcohol-related stigma on poorer perceived health among people with HIV (PWH) receiving antiretroviral therapy in a study examining TB infection risk among PWH in HIV care in southwestern Uganda (2022-2023). …

Improvements in…
Social Vulnerability and Mental Health Among People with HIV and Substance Use
Self-Reported Cannabis Use and HIV Viral Control among Patients with HIV Engaged in Care
Background: The association between cannabis use and HIV-1 RNA (viral load) among people with HIV (PWH) engaged in care is unclear. Methods: We used data collected from 2002 to 2018 on PWH receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) enrolled in the Veterans Aging Cohort Study. Generalized estimating equations were used to estimate associations between self-reported past-year cannabis use and detectable viral load (≥500 copies/mL), with and without adj…
Association of Syndemic Unhealthy Alcohol Use, Smoking, and Depressive Symptoms on Incident Cardiovascular Disease among Veterans With and Without HIV-Infection
The Hepatitis C Continuum of Care Among HIV-Positive Persons with Heavy Alcohol Use in St. Petersburg, Russia
Associations of Total, Cognitive/Affective, and Somatic Depressive Symptoms and Antidepressant Use With Cardiovascular Disease–Relevant Biomarkers in HIV
OBJECTIVE: We sought to determine the associations of total, cognitive/affective, and somatic depressive symptoms and antidepressant use with biomarkers of processes implicated in cardiovascular disease in HIV (HIV-CVD). METHODS: We examined data from 1546 HIV-positive and 843 HIV-negative veterans. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and past-year antidepressant use was determined from Veterans Affair phar…
