Filter by:The aim of this research protocol is to test the efficacy of a self-care intervention through a randomized controlled trial (RCT), for increasing protective sexual health behaviors among youth in the participating Native American community. The investigators will randomize 450 youth and young adults ages 14-26 to the self-care intervention or a control program. Efficacy data will be collected up to 6 months post-intervention. The primary outcome will be uptake of sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening. Secondary outcomes will include: a) sexual risk and protective behaviors; and b) psychosocial assets and resources. The investigators hypothesize the self-care intervention will increase protective behaviors by: i) helping youth gain knowledge of their own sexual health risks, assets and resources; ii) motivating protection of those assets and resources; and iii) encouraging good health practices and making responsible choices.
The BRAHMS study is a prospective observational cohort study aiming to investigate how often people that are at risk to get infected with HIV contract HIV and how long people stay in the study. The University Hospital Essen is interested in finding out how often participants contact other sexually transmitted infections (STI) and hepatitis as well as in the development of HIV vaccines to test in the future. The University Hospital Essen will therefore also ask participants to fill out a questionnaire asking their general willingness to participate in such a trial (i.e., where the vaccine might be targeted to an HIV subtype not as common in Europe) to understand whether such testing would be possible in the future in Germany.
This study will determine the feasibility, acceptability, and potential efficacy of an emergency department-based pregnancy prevention intervention targeting sexually active adolescent female emergency department patients.
The University Hospital Essen is sponsoring the Multicenter human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and sexually transmitted infections Prevention Network Study (STIPnet) which is funded by Janssen, Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson. STIPnet study is a prospective observational cohort study aiming to determine the incidence and point prevalence of HIV infection and the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in individuals with sexual risk behavior. In addition, the University Hospital Essen will examine whether individuals at risk for HIV and STI infections would retain in such a study (retention rate) and would be willing to participate in potential HIV and STI prevention trials (willingness to participate).
This is a pretest-posttest feasibility study of Media Aware Sexual Health - High School, an interactive web-based comprehensive sexual health media literacy education program for high school students. The program is designed to develop students' critical thinking skills and promote sexual health. It is hypothesized that this program will enhance adolescents' media literacy skills, sexual health knowledge, cognitions (i.e., attitudes, self-efficacy, and norms), and behaviors regarding healthy sexual decision-making.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new approach to sexual violence prevention by promoting healthy relationships and personal life skills among incoming Air Force cadets at the United States Air Force Academy.
The goal of this study is to understand how the Shamba Maisha household agricultural and economic intervention impacts the sexual, reproductive, and nutritional health of adolescent girls. The intervention includes: a) a human-powered water pump and other required farm commodities, b) a micro-finance loan (~$75) to purchase the pump and agricultural implements, and c) education in sustainable farming practices.
The goal of this efficacy study is to evaluate how different web-based resources affect parents' and children's sexual health knowledge; attitudes, efficacy, intentions, and behaviors about parent-adolescent communication; attitudes about media messages; and media message deconstruction skills. Parent consumer satisfaction with the resources will also be assessed.
The purpose of this school-level randomized intervention trial is to evaluate the It's Your Game…Keep It Real program, an evidence-based teen pregnancy, HIV, and STI prevention program, among 2,000 students from 20 middle schools in 10 participating school districts in Harris County and surrounding areas. An audio computer-assisted self interview (A-CASI) assessment was used to assess demographic characteristics, psychosocial factors, sexual behaviors, and program exposure at three data collection points. Data was collected at baseline (preintervention), 6 months post intervention, and 12 months post intervention.
This is an exploratory pilot study to evaluate the feasibility and potential effects of an innovative, individualized electronic inpatient sexual health intervention (iRAP) for adolescent females. The central hypothesis is that the electronic intervention, a sexual health questionnaire with tailored feedback based on the Trans Theoretical Model (TTM) of behavior change, will significantly increase adolescent females' requests for sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening and sexual health management during their hospital admission.
