Healthcare Acceptability and Delayed Care Among Older People Living with HIV in the All of Us Program
Timely engagement in healthcare is crucial for effective management of HIV, comorbidities, and disease prevention among older people living with HIV (PLHIV). Healthcare acceptability may be especially important for older PLHIV who have experienced long-standing stigma, medical mistrust, and culturally insensitive care. This study examined healthcare acceptability and its association with delayed care among older (≥ 50 years) PLHIV and assessed wh…
A multilevel analysis of LGBT-relevant laws and sexual and gender minority mental health
Sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals experience elevated rates of depression and anxiety, largely attributed to chronic exposure to stigma, discrimination, and social exclusion. Less is known about whether state-level policy climates may buffer the mental health impacts of stress among SGM populations. We used data from the All of Us Research Program (2020–2022) to examine whether state-level LGBTQ policy climates; measured using the Move…
State Medicaid Policies Governing Access to Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (Moud) and Moud Treatment Use in a Large Sample of People Who Inject Drugs in 20 U.S. States
BACKGROUND: People who inject drugs (PWID) are especially vulnerable to harms from opioid use disorder (OUD). Medications for OUD (MOUD) effectively reduce overdose and infectious disease transmission risks. OBJECTIVE: We investigate whether state Medicaid coverage for methadone and buprenorphine is related to past-year MOUD use among PWID using cross-sectional, multilevel analyses with individual-level data on PWID from the Centers for Disease C…

The War on Drugs, Racialized Capitalism, and Health Care Utilization Among White People Who Use Drugs in 22 Rural Appalachian Counties
Objectives. To analyze War on Drugs encounters and their relationships to health care utilization among White people who use drugs (PWUD) in 22 Appalachian rural counties in Kentucky, West Virginia, Ohio, and North Carolina. Methods. We recruited White PWUD using chain referral sampling in 2018 to 2020. Surveys asked about criminal–legal encounters, unmet health care needs, and other covariates. We used generalized estimating equations to regress…
Substance use disorder treatment and technology access among people who use drugs in rural areas of the United States
PURPOSE: To evaluate how technology access affected substance use disorder (SUD) treatment prior to COVID-19 for people who use drugs in rural areas. METHODS: The Rural Opioid Initiative (January 2018-March 2020) was a cross-sectional study of people with prior 30-day injection drug or nonprescribed opioid use from rural areas of 10 states. Using multivariable mixed-effect regression models, we examined associations between participant technology…
A qualitative analysis of rural syringe service program fidelity in Appalachian Kentucky
PURPOSE: As drug-related epidemics have expanded from cities to rural areas, syringe service programs (SSPs) and other harm reduction programs have been slow to follow. The recent implementation of SSPs in rural areas demands attention to program fidelity based on core components of SSP success. METHODS: Semistructured interviews conducted with clients and staff at 5 SSPs in 5 counties within 2 Central Appalachian health districts. Interviews cov…
Correlates of Recent HIV Testing Among People Who Inject Drugs in Rural Areas
Capacity for sustainment of recently established syringe service programs in Appalachian Kentucky
Buprenorphine dispensing in an epicenter of the U.S. opioid epidemic
Structural Determinants of Black MSM HIV Testing Coverage (2011–2016)
Actives, passives and power
Global research reveals that gender-role norms have a profound effect on socio- and psycho-sexual expression (e.g. sexual positioning) among gay and bisexual men, which in turn may affect mental health and sexual risks. However, little is known about these factors among gay and bisexual men in Muslim-majority countries such as Tajikistan. Using a combination of in-depth individual interviews and focus-group assessments, this exploratory, qualitat…

HIV and syphilis epidemic among MSM and non-MSM aged 50 and above in Shanghai, China
The magnitude of the HIV and syphilis epidemic among Chinese men ages 50 and older is unclear. In this study, we aimed to characterise and compare the prevalence of HIV and syphilis infections; linkage to care among those infected with HIV; and the geographic distribution of the two epidemics among elderly men who have sex with men (MSM) and non-MSM in Shanghai, China. This cross-sectional study involved 12,910 men ages 50 and above who participa…
Relationship of Racial Residential Segregation to Newly Diagnosed Cases of HIV among Black Heterosexuals in US Metropolitan Areas, 2008–2015
Estimating self-reported sex practices, drug use, depression, and intimate partner violence among MSM in China
Men who have sex with men (MSM) are the group at highest risk for HIV in China. Researchers have used various recruitment methods to reach this population hidden from the hetero-normative culture. To inform future recruitment strategies, we compared estimates of socio-demographic characteristics, HIV risk behaviors, depression, and intimate partner violence (IPV) across three samples of MSM and money boys in Shanghai, China. Data were collected f…
Fathers who care and those that don’t
Fathers have an important role to play in childcare and when they are not involved, the children, mothers and fathers themselves are the poorer for it. Yet in many contexts we do not actually know either the extent or nature of father involvement. This article reports on a study that drew on data from a randomised survey of 18–49-year-old men in South Africa to explore levels of childcare participation and to analyse which particular activities m…
Qualitative examination of enacted stigma towards gay and bisexual men and related health outcomes in Tajikistan, Central Asia
Gay and bisexual men (GBM) in Tajikistan are an extremely stigmatised group at high risk for sexually transmitted infections and HIV. However, there is a paucity of research on how and in what way stigma affects their lives. We conducted a qualitative study to examine the impact of stigma on GBM's lives in Tajikistan, focusing on stigma enactors, settings, factors affecting vulnerability of GBM and health consequences. Eight individual in-depth i…
