ABSTRACTThis study examines the relationship between coping self-efficacy, concurrent stress, and psychological distress (borderline/clinical anxiety, depression, and PTSD symptoms) among people living with HIV (PLWH). Using data from a cohort of PLWH living in a southern peri-urban area, logistic regression analyses were conducted to determine the effects of self-reported coping self-efficacy on psychological distress in a sample of 85 violence-affected PLWH. We also tested the moderating effect of coping self-efficacy on the concurrent stress-psychological distress relationships. In adjusted models, coping self-efficacy was significantly associated with symptoms of anxiety and PTSD, but not depressive symptoms. Findings indicate that high coping self-efficacy may reduce one's likelihood of anxiety and PTSD symptoms among PLWH.

This study examined the relationship between exposure to community violence and HIV care engagement among 107 Black gay or bisexual men living with HIV in Chicago. Measures assessed the importance of demographic covariates (age, annual income, health insurance status, and years living with HIV), community violence exposures, mental health, social support, in explaining variations in missed doses of antiretroviral therapy (ART) medication and missed HIV care appointments. Results showed that participants who reported higher rates of exposure to community violence were two times more likely to have missed ART doses and HIV care appointments. Participants who reported depression scores were two times more likely to have greater non-ART adherence. Finally, older participants were more likely to report fewer missed ART doses. More research is needed to clarify the mechanisms between age or depression and ART adherence given community violence exposure. Health care providers should screen for depression when attempting to promote better ART adherence and keeping HIV care appointments for Black gay and bisexual men living with HIV. Younger Black gay and bisexual men living with HIV may be more vulnerable than older men for missed ART doses and may require additional screening and follow-up.
本研究调查了芝加哥 107 名感染 HIV 的黑人男同性恋或双性恋者中社区暴力暴露与 HIV 护理参与之间的关系。这些措施评估了人口统计学协变量(年龄、年收入、医疗保险状况和感染 HIV 的年数)、社区暴力暴露、心理健康和社会支持在解释抗逆转录病毒疗法(ART)药物漏服和 HIV 护理预约缺席的变化方面的重要性。结果表明,报告遭受社区暴力比例较高的参与者错过抗逆转录病毒疗法药物剂量和艾滋病护理预约的可能性要高出两倍。报告患有抑郁症的参与者不坚持抗逆转录病毒疗法的可能性要高出两倍。最后,年龄较大的参与者更有可能报告较少错过抗逆转录病毒疗法剂量。需要进行更多的研究来阐明年龄或抑郁与接触社区暴力后坚持抗逆转录病毒疗法之间的机制。医疗服务提供者在试图促进黑人男同性恋和双性恋感染者更好地坚持抗逆转录病毒疗法和遵守艾滋病护理预约时,应筛查抑郁症。年轻的黑人男同性恋和双性恋感染者可能比年长者更容易错过抗逆转录病毒疗法的剂量,因此可能需要额外的筛查和随访。

Despite success in achieving viral suppression during pregnancy in people living with HIV (PLWH), postpartum adherence remains a challenge. We aimed to describe rates of adherence at a Prevention of Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission (PMTCT) Center before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study was conducted from a cohort of PLWH who received prenatal care and were virally suppressed near delivery. We tracked combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) pickups for 12 months and HIV viral load (VL) from 2 to 12 months after delivery. We defined flexible adherence as a monthly pickup of cART and strict adherence as also having VL < 200 copies/mL and at least one maternal HIV VL between two and twelve months postpartum. Pre-pandemic was defined as delivery from March 2017-February 2019 and pandemic as March 2020-February 2022. During the study, 1119 PLWH were followed, and 965 (86%) were suppressed near delivery. There were 511 pre-pandemic and 290 pandemic participants. Adherence rates were 66/511 (13%) and 38/290 (13%), respectively. During the pandemic, more participants conceived using cART and were undetectable at the start of prenatal care; nevertheless, postpartum adherence was no better than pre-pandemic underscoring the need to improve strategies for adherence specific to this subset of PLWH in the postpartum period.

A worrying phenomenon has emerged recently: more people are deliberately avoiding rather than seeking information regarding acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). This is the first study to explore behaviors related to AIDS information avoidance and the potential influential factors among older men who have sex with men (MSM). We enrolled 11 older MSM from Wuhan, the largest city in central China, from January to March 2023 using a phenomenological method. This qualitative research was conducted using face-to-face semi-structured interviews. AIDS information avoidance was commonly observed among the respondents. Behaviors related to AIDS information avoidance included avoiding AIDS-related information, ignoring known AIDS information, and avoiding medical care. The main factors associated with AIDS information avoidance included information overload, high-risk sexual behaviors, over-optimism, fear of disclosure, and age. China should provide AIDS information in a manner suitable for older MSM, pay more attention to MSM over the age of 70 years, those who are not open about their sexual orientation and those who are too optimistic, and strengthen the censorship of AIDS information.

Men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately affected by HIV. Given that over 70% of MSM meet sexual partners via dating apps, such apps may be an effective platform for promoting HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use. We aimed to describe preferences among MSM for PrEP advertisements displayed on dating apps. We conducted individual in-depth interviews with 16 MSM recruited from a mobile sexual health unit in Boston, Massachusetts. Two focus groups were also held: one with mobile unit staff (N = 3) and one with mobile unit users (N = 3). Content analysis was used to identify themes related to advertisement content and integration with app use. Mean participant age was 28 (SD 6.8); 37% identified as White and 63% as Latinx. 21% of interviews were conducted in Spanish. Preferences were organized around four themes: (1) relevant and relatable advertisements, (2) expansion of target audiences to promote access, (3) concise and captivating advertisements, and (4) PrEP advertisements and services as options, not obligations. MSM are supportive of receiving information about PrEP on dating apps, but feel that existing advertisements require modification to better engage viewers. Dating apps may be an underutilized tool for increasing PrEP awareness and knowledge among MSM.

Heavy alcohol use (HAU) can destabilize engagement along the HIV care continuum. Population-based studies assessing associations of HAU with HIV treatment outcomes are lacking, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. We leveraged data from the Kenya Population-based HIV Impact Assessment to identify associations of self-reported HAU, assessed using two items measuring the frequency and quantity of past-year alcohol consumption, with serum biomarkers for HIV serostatus unawareness, antiretroviral therapy (ART) non-use, and HIV viremia (≥1000 RNA copies/mL). Overall and sex-stratified survey-weighted logistic regression with jackknife variance estimation modeled adjusted odds ratios (adjOR) of HIV treatment indicators by HAU. Overall, 1491 persons living with HIV aged 15-64 years (68.4% female) were included. The prevalence of HAU was 8.9% (95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 6.8-11.0%) and was significantly more pronounced in males than females (19.6% vs. 4.0%, p < 0.001). In multivariable analysis, HAU was significantly (p < 0.001) associated with HIV serostatus unawareness (adjOR = 3.65, 95%CI: 2.14-6.23), ART non-use (adjOR = 3.81, 95%CI: 2.25-6.43), and HIV viremia (adjOR = 3.13, 95%CI: 1.85-5.32). Incorporating sex-specific alcohol use screening into HIV testing and treatment services in populations where HAU is prevalent could optimize clinical outcomes along the HIV care continuum.
大量饮酒(HAU)会破坏参与艾滋病治疗的连续性。目前还缺乏基于人群的研究来评估 HAU 与 HIV 治疗结果之间的关系,尤其是在撒哈拉以南非洲地区。我们利用肯尼亚基于人口的 HIV 影响评估数据,确定了自我报告的 HAU(使用两个测量过去一年饮酒频率和数量的项目进行评估)与 HIV 血清状态不知晓、不使用抗逆转录病毒疗法(ART)和 HIV 病毒血症(≥1000 RNA 拷贝/毫升)的血清生物标志物之间的关联。利用杰克刀方差估计法进行的总体和性别分层调查加权逻辑回归模拟了HAU艾滋病治疗指标的调整几率比(adjOR)。总共纳入了 1491 名 15-64 岁的艾滋病病毒感染者(68.4% 为女性)。HAU 患病率为 8.9%(95% 置信区间 [95%CI]:6.8-11.0%),男性患病率明显高于女性(19.6% 对 4.0%,P < 0.001)。在多变量分析中,HAU 与 HIV 血清状态不知晓(adjOR = 3.65,95%CI:2.14-6.23)、抗逆转录病毒疗法不使用(adjOR = 3.81,95%CI:2.25-6.43)和 HIV 病毒血症(adjOR = 3.13,95%CI:1.85-5.32)显著相关(p < 0.001)。在 HAU 流行的人群中,将特定性别的饮酒筛查纳入 HIV 检测和治疗服务中,可优化 HIV 连续护理的临床结果。
