Associations of emotional, physical and sexual abuse with network centrality in a population of Latina seasonal farmworkers
By understanding how women from an undeserved population who have experienced these forms of abuse are linked through their friendship network structures, interventionalists can better identify the role of intimate partner violence in HIV/STD risk reduction interventions, targeted reproductive health approaches, and empower women to report abuse. Network visualizations can be used in process evaluations by informing how to restructure network con…
The transnational mental health burden of Haiti’s alleged collapse
Background Transnational drug trafficking, political unrest, gang violence, and paramilitarism, which are pervasive in Haiti, have resulted in a mental health crisis for the broader Haitian community. This study explores the mental well-being of Haitians in Haiti and the United States by identifying barriers and facilitators to mental health through the lived experiences of men and women. Method Four Focus group discussions conducted in April and…
What Women with HIV Know about Heart Health and Cardiovascular Risk and Intervention Preferences
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a significant health concern influenced by various determinants. Stigma and resilience have emerged as factors in CVD development and management. Women with HIV (WWH) have higher CVD rates than women without HIV. To improve cardiovascular health for WWH, a comprehensive understanding of how these factors interact, the understanding about individual awareness and willingness to engage in risk-reduction interventions…
Assessing Regional Weather’s Impact on Spinal Cord Injury Survivors, Caregivers, and General Public in Miami, Florida
(1) Background: Climate change is increasing the already frequent diverse extreme weather events (EWE) across geographic locations, directly and indirectly impacting human health. However, current ongoing research fails to address the magnitude of these indirect impacts, including healthcare access. Vulnerable populations such as persons with spinal cord injury (pSCI) face added physiologic burden such as thermoregulation or mobility challenges l…
The Role of Intersectional Stigma in Coronary Artery Disease Among Cisgender Women Aging with HIV
Cisgender women living with HIV experience elevated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk that increases with age, a concern given extended life expectancies for people living with HIV. The CVD risk disparity among cisgender women aging with HIV is understudied and remains unclear. Taking a psychoneuroimmunology approach, given this group's intersecting marginalized identities, one potential driver of the disparity is intersectional stigma. Yet not a…
“Because the resources aren’t there, then we fail. We fail as a society”
Pills, PrEP, and Pals
Background: Ending HIV/AIDS in the United States requires tailored interventions. This study is part of a larger investigation to design mCARES, a mobile technology-based, adherence intervention for ethnic minority women with HIV (MWH). Objective: To understand barriers and facilitators of care adherence (treatment and appointment) for ethnic MWH; examine the relationship between these factors across three ethnic groups; and, explore the role of …
Medical Mistrust and Adherence to Care Among a Heterogeneous Cohort of Women Living with HIV, Followed in a Large, U.S. Safety Net Clinic
Purpose: To explore the relationship between medical mistrust, as measured by the Group-Based Medical Mistrust (GBMM) scale, and HIV care adherence among a cohort of minority women receiving care in a U.S. safety net clinic. Methods: English-, Spanish-, and Haitian Creole (Creole)-speaking patients with a recent history of nonadherence to care were surveyed. Results: English speakers endorsed the highest level of mistrust, followed by Spanish spe…
Impact of Extreme Weather on Healthcare Utilization by People with HIV in Metropolitan Miami
Extreme weather events (EWE) are expected to increase as climate change intensifies, leaving coastal regions exposed to higher risks. South Florida has the highest HIV infection rate in the United States, and disruptions in clinic utilization due to extreme weather conditions could affect adherence to treatment and increase community transmission. The objective of this study was to identify the association between EWE and HIV-clinic attendance ra…
Low Perceived Anal Cancer Risk and Screening Utilization Among High-Risk Transgender Men and Women Living in an HIV / STI Epicenter
Resumption of School amid the Covid-19 Pandemic
Background. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about significant challenges to Ghana's education system, leading to the closure of schools for months. On 31 May 2020, the government of Ghana took a bold decision based on expert advice to reopen schools for final-year students amid the COVID-19 pandemic. However, data for students' knowledge, attitudes, and practices towards COVID-19 are limited. We sought to investigate students' level of knowledg…
Digitized HIV/Aids Treatment Adherence Interventions
BACKGROUND: Mobile health technologies (mHealth) are efficacious along the continuum of HIV/AIDS-from prevention of HIV transmission to those at the highest risk of acquiring infection, to adherence to HIV medical care, for those living with the disease-decreasing the public health burden of the disease. HIV/AIDS is a complex condition, as certain population subgroups are disproportionately affected. Furthermore, barriers experienced at the indiv…
High Levels of Syndemics and Their Association with Adherence, Viral Non-suppression, and Biobehavioral Transmission Risk in Miami, a U.S. City with an HIV/Aids Epidemic
A Novel Heart‐Centered, Gratitude‐Meditation Intervention to Increase Well‐Being among Adolescents
Population studies paint a dismal picture of the mental health status of adolescents, in the US and worldwide. Positive psychology, which takes a preventative approach to keeping individuals in higher states of well‐being, is being implemented increasingly among youth, with the goal of avoiding future mental health and psychological problems. In this study, a novel intervention, which fused the practice of meditation with gratitude visualizations…
