Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test if sexual health interventions can reduce the incidence of STIs among African American teens (15 to 21 years old). By doing this study, we hope to help African American teens improve their condom use skills and encourage them to use condoms more frequently. If the number of STIs in this population can be decreased, the health of African American teen males will greatly improve. We also believe that sexual partners (typically African American teen females) will also benefit.
The purpose of this study is to develop and pilot test a partner-specific HIV risk reduction intervention for currently or recently incarcerated adolescents who report problematic substance use.
This project seeks to demonstrate that computer kiosks in a clinic waiting room can improve access to hormonal contraception and screening for sexually transmitted infections. The study will be a randomized controlled trial which will evaluate the use of a computer kiosk module to compare the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception when computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception is offered (intervention) to encounters when the study clinic provides standard contraceptive care (control). Subjects will be contacted approximately 3 months (range 2-4 months) after the clinic visit to complete a follow-up phone interview. The study population will include English and Spanish-speaking women ages 18-45 who seek care at this clinic. Our hypothesis is that computer-assisted provision of hormonal contraception (intervention)will increase the proportion of women of reproductive age who receive a prescription for hormonal contraception versus standard contraceptive care(control).
The goal of this study is to evaluate two sets of interventions to increase acceptance of hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccination in patients attending sexually transmitted disease (STD) clinics. The 1st set of interventions, with 3 levels, is based on message framing. The 3 levels are: 1. information only; 2. gain-framed message; and 3. loss-framed message. The 2nd set of interventions, with 2 levels, involves how the vaccine is recommended by the health care provider. The 2 levels are: 1. HBV vaccine offered; and 2. HBV vaccine recommended. The outcome of interest is1st dose acceptance.
A cross-sectional study of urogenital schistosomiasis and sexually transmitted infections (STI) prevalence and associated morbidity in a rural community in Madagascar. Clearance of infections and resolution of morbidity were subsequently studied in two phases following systematic anti-STI and anti-schistosoma treatment, respectively.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a community-level HIV prevention program in promoting safer sexual behaviors and reducing the transmission of HIV/sexually transmitted diseases among at-risk populations in China, India, Peru, Russia, and Zimbabwe.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of community-level behavioral and biomedical interventions, each alone and combined, in reducing sexual risk behavior and HIV/sexually transmitted infections in Peruvian men who have sex with men.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a risk-reduction program in preventing the transmission of HIV and sexually transmitted diseases among African-American heterosexual couples, with one partner having been previously diagnosed with an HIV infection.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a physician training program, the Ai Shi Zi program, in improving HIV/sexually transmitted infection diagnosis, treatment, and management by Chinese physicians and in reducing the number of subsequent infections in their patients.
This trial randomizes young Mexican American and African American women with a sexually transmitted infection to a behavioral intervention (3 three hour weekly sessions) versus control with the goal of preventing recurrent sexually transmitted infections.
