Exploring the relationship between established HIV risk factors and depressive symptoms amongst young women without HIV in two sites in South Africa.
PLoS One
January 2025
Centre for Community-Based Research, Human Science Research Council, Pretoria, South Africa.
Purpose: Adolescent girls are at high risk for depression and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition. Poor mental health can increase vulnerability to risky sexual behaviours. Therefore, this study aims to determine the prevalence of depressive symptomology and explore the convergence of HIV risk factors with depressive symptoms amongst cis-gender adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in rural KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) and peri-urban Western Cape (WC) communities in South Africa.

Gerontologist
January 2025
University of Washington, School of Social Work, Seattle, WA USA.
Background And Objectives: Generativity, a concern and commitment for others, has shown to be positively associated with health and well-being. Research on generativity in sexual and gender minority (SGM) communities is limited, despite its potential importance given the marginalization older SGM individuals face and limited interaction between generations. We integrate Generativity Theory and the Health Equity Promotional Model to examine key factors for generativity and subgroup differences among SGM midlife and older adults.

Addict Sci Clin Pract
January 2025
Health Services Research & Development (HSR&D) Center of Innovation for Veteran-Centered and Value-Driven Care, Veterans Affairs (VA) Puget Sound Health Care System, 1660 S. Columbian Way, Mail Stop S-152, Seattle, WA, 98108, USA.
Background: Unhealthy alcohol use is an independent, modifiable risk factor for HIV, but limited research addresses alcohol use and HIV prevention synergistically. Groups that experience chronic stigma, discrimination, and/or other marginalization, such as sexual and gender minoritized groups, may have enhanced HIV risk related to unhealthy alcohol use. We described awareness of and experiences with pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among a community sample of Veterans reporting unhealthy alcohol use (relative to those without), overall and across self-reported sexual orientation and gender identity.

J Head Trauma Rehabil
January 2025
Author Affiliations: Boston University School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts (Ms Sherman Rosa); Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts (Mr Nadal); and Department of Neurology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts (Dr Saadi).
Objective: This study assessed (1) the feasibility and usability of traumatic brain injury (TBI) assessment using the Ohio State University TBI Identification Method (OSU-TBI-ID) in a sample of English and Spanish-speaking refugees and asylum seekers (hereafter refugees), and (2) the prevalence and characteristics of TBI in this population.
Setting And Participants: Refugees seeking care from Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) Asylum Clinic, the MGH Chelsea HealthCare Center, and other asylum programs in the Greater Boston Area.
Design And Main Measures: Bilingual clinical research coordinators screened 158 English and Spanish-speaking refugees using the OSU-TBI-ID.
Brain Function Outcomes of Recent and Lifetime Cannabis Use.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Laboratory of NeuroImaging, National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, Bethesda, Maryland.
Importance: Cannabis use has increased globally, but its effects on brain function are not fully known, highlighting the need to better determine recent and long-term brain activation outcomes of cannabis use.
Objective: To examine the association of lifetime history of heavy cannabis use and recent cannabis use with brain activation across a range of brain functions in a large sample of young adults in the US.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study used data (2017 release) from the Human Connectome Project (collected between August 2012 and 2015).
