Impact of COVID-19 Response on the HIV Epidemic in Men Who Have Sex With Men in San Francisco County: The Importance of Rapid Return to Normalcy.

Background: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, San Francisco County (SFC) had to shift many nonemergency health care resources to COVID-19, reducing HIV control resources.

Setting: Microsimulation model of MSM in SFC tracking HIV progression and treatment.

History of Weight Cycling Is Prospectively Associated With Shorter and Poorer-Quality Sleep and Higher Sleep Apnea Risk in Diverse US Women.

Background: Poor sleep and history of weight cycling (HWC) are associated with worse cardiovascular health, yet limited research has evaluated the association between HWC and poor sleep patterns.

Methods: The American Heart Association Go Red for Women Strategically Focused Research Network cohort at Columbia University (n = 506; mean age, 37 ± 15.7 years; 61% racial/ethnic minority) was used to evaluate the cross-sectional associations of HWC and sleep at baseline and the prospective associations of HWC from baseline with sleep at the 1-year visit.
