    Expanding hospital human immunodeficiency virus testing in the Bronx, New York and Washington, District of Columbia: Results from the HPTN 065 study

    Public health authorities in the United States recommend routine HIV screening in health care settings, including hospitals, to identify undiagnosed patients. The authors found that, in practice, implementing large-scale HIV screening programs in hospital-based settings is very difficult and often unsuccessful in reaching testing goals, but success is possible when adequate resources are available and testing is prioritized by hospital and public health leadership

    Recruitment of underrepresented minority researchers into HIV prevention research: The HIV Prevention Trials Network Scholars program

    The HIV Prevention Trials Network’s (HPTN’s) Scholars Program encourages early-career, under-represented minority investigators to pursue and continue research in HIV prevention science.

    Relationship between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) knowledge, HIV-related stigma, and HIV testing among young black adults in a southeastern city

    The authors sought to understand how HIV knowledge and HIV-related stigma affect HIV testing experience among young black adults in a southeastern city in the United States. The findings suggest that reducing HIV-related stigma and increasing HIV knowledge are not sufficient in promoting testing among young black adults in this city, unless specific emphasis is placed on addressing self-stigma and misperceptions about HIVprevention and control.

    Sexual networks and HIV risk among black men who have sex with men in six U.S. cities

    Analysis of self-reported data from 1,349 black men who have sex with men in the United States, a group that is disproportionately affected by HIV, found that the men's sexual networks were relatively small and often overlapped with their social networks. Network interventions that engage the social networks of black men who have sex with men, such as peer influence, should be developed to affect social norms around HIV testing and HIV status disclosure.
