Filter by:Women Living with HIV Infection （WLHIV）are intended to acquire HPV infection which usually contributes to variable cervical lesions. we hypothesize that vaginal microbiota imbalance may make WLHIV prone to HPV infection，thereafter results in severe cervical lesion.
This is a one-year study that seeks to evaluate perspectives of combined injectable treatment for HIV and OUD. Specifically, with the development of new long-acting medications such as cabotegravir co-administered with rilpivirine (CAB/RPV) and extended-release buprenorphine (XR-B) there is a need to better understand factors that influence the delivery and uptake of this type of treatment. Therefore, this study will conduct qualitative (1:1) interviews with 32-45 key stakeholders to assess interest, knowledge, attitudes, barriers, and facilitators to integrated injectable treatment. Our team will utilize qualitative findings to inform clinical strategies to promote uptake and maintenance of long-acting injectable medications for HIV and OUD.
This is a single-arm implementation study of a novel integrated delivery model of CAB-RPV LA for transwomen living with HIV.
Through the proposed Substance Checking Outreach and Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Engagement (SCOPE) study, the investigators will design and evaluate an overdose prevention and HIV prevention study among people who use drugs (PWUD). Specifically, SCOPE will provide access to drug-checking services for PWUD to better understand the contents of the drug supply, in combination with PrEP for those who are HIV-, to both reduce overdose and HIV among PWUD in Baltimore City.
A major impediment to emergency department (ED)-based HIV/HCV screening success is that often ED patients at risk for, or later diagnosed with, HIV and HCV decline testing. In this R01 project, the research team will assess how well a promising, easy-to-use, one-time, minimal-training-needed, very brief persuasive health communication intervention (PHCI) increases acceptance of testing among adult ED patients who either currently, formerly or never injected drugs and initially declined HIV/HCV screening. The research team will conduct a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) at two EDs within the Mount Sinai Health System to compare the efficacy of the PHCI when delivered by a video vs. an HIV/HCV counselor. Patients who initially declined HIV/HCV screening will be stratified by injection-drug use (IDU) history cohorts: (1) current/former PWIDs, (2) never/non-PWIDs. Within each IDU history cohort, the research team will randomly assign participants (1:1) to a PHCI delivered by: (1) a video, or (2) an HIV/HCV counselor. This R01 project will be conducted at The Mount Sinai Hospital and Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital EDs. For Aim 1, the research team will determine which delivery form of the PHCI (video or HIV/HCV counselor) results in more ED patients accepting HIV/HCV screening, independent of their history of IDU. For Aim 2, the research team will determine if screening acceptance is similar across IDU history cohorts. For Aim 3, the research team will further compare the two delivery forms of the PHCI through a health economics assessment, both independent of IDU history and within each IDU history cohort.
This data collection study aims to describe and compare the outcomes of Mpox on people living with HIV (PLHIV) and HIV-negative individuals who are on pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The study also aims to identify risk factors for specific Mpox outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of SkillTalk among educators, parents, and students. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the impact of SkillTalk on student sexual-health related outcomes? - What is the impact of SkillTalk on educator microskills? Educator participants will use an online microskills training platform for one week. Parent participants will be asked to use a parent-specific online microskills training platform for one week. Youth participants will not be asked to do anything outside of "business as usual." Researchers will compare the treatment groups to the control groups to measure the impact of SkillTalk.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of SkillTalk, a subscription-based microskills video training library designed to enhance the skills of high school sex educators to implement the frequently used core components of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) curricula. The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of SkillTalk on educators' demonstrable sexual health education skills. Participants will be asked to: - Complete a consent form. - Attend two simulated classroom sessions, either in person or virtually, during which they will teach two prepared lessons that have will be provided to them. - Be video recorded while teaching. - Complete a baseline survey and a post-survey. - If assigned to the treatment group, they will be granted access to SkillTalk for one week to view the videos associated with the answering sensitive questions and using trauma-informed strategies skill sets. Researchers will compare the treatment group to the control group to see if SkillTalk has an impact on educators' demonstrable sexual health education skills.
Acceptability of a PrEP program among MSM and TG visiting a geolocated community application or a community physical place of sociability and having accepted a targeted screening for HIV, Hepatitis B, C and STIs.
This demonstration study will evaluate the real-world implementation of long-acting cabotegravir (CAB-LA) for HIV pre-exposure prevention (PrEP) through a partnership between the OHSU Tele-PrEP Program (TPP) and the OHSU Home Infusion Pharmacy (HIP). The study will perform a formative evaluation of the TPP/HIP partnership to determine its merit and worth, with revisions made as needed to improve the program, which is reflective of a real-world program rollout. The study is observational, and there is no comparison group. The primary objective is to evaluate adherence to CAB-LA by both urban and rural participants using the TPP/HIP partnership. The goals of the study are improve the TPP/HIP program itself with attention to reducing geographic disparities, and to disseminate best practices and lessons learned to the broader HIV prevention community.
