Men who have sex with men (MSM) are disproportionately affected by HIV in Nigeria. A key strategy in reducing transmission is to increase HIV testing uptake and linkage to treatment for those who test positive. HIV self-testing (HIVST) is an innovative strategy with the potential to increase uptake of HIV testing among key populations at higher…

Young Black gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (YB-GBMSM) are disproportionately burdened by HIV and often exhibit suboptimal engagement in HIV care. With the goal of increasing engagement in HIV care, we designed a culturally specific, theory-based group-level program, Brothers Building Brothers by Breaking Barriers (B6), which…

Fields, Errol L.; Thornton, Nicole; Long, Amanda; Morgan, Anthony; Uzzi, Mudia; Arrington-Sanders, Renata; Jennings, Jacky M. – Journal of LGBT Youth, 2021
Young Black gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (YBMSM) carry a disproportionate HIV burden perpetuated by exposure to sexual networks with higher untreated HIV prevalence and incidence. In Baltimore, these sexual networks include high utilization of geosocial networking apps (GSN-apps). Our prior work suggests these apps can be…

In the United States, HIV disproportionately affects people 13-45 years old, people of color, people in the south, and men who have sex with men. Given the growing number of postsecondary students within these demographic groups, this presents an equity issue and raises concerns for how higher education researchers and practitioners choose to…

Grov, Christian; Stief, Matthew; Westmoreland, Drew A.; MacCrate, Caitlin; Mirzayi, Chloe; Nash, Denis – Health Education & Behavior, 2020
Internet-based recruitment can be effective in reaching large numbers of geographically diverse individuals. Geosocial sexual networking apps on smartphones have emerged as the modal way in which men who have sex with men (MSM) meet sex partners, and as venues for sexual health research. We report on the performance of three types of…

Arrington-Sanders, Renata; Fields, Errol; Greenberg, Lauren; Henry-Reid, Lisa; Stines Pehoua, Stephanie; Korelitz, James; Kapogiannis, Bill; Ellen, Jonathan; Boyer, Cherrie B. – Youth & Society, 2019
Venue-based strategies offer effective means of targeting men who have sex with men. Few studies have sought to focus on where younger men congregate and understand risk behaviors that may occur at lower (i.e., community centers) versus higher risk venues. Data from 1,311 young men who have sex with men (YMSM) aged 12- to 24-years-old recruited…

Few studies have examined sexual partnerships and HIV risk in diverse samples of African American/Black and Hispanic/Latino adolescent and young adult men who have sex with men (YMSM), a group that have a high burden of HIV in the United States. A community-venue recruitment approach was used, which identified significant differences in HIV risk…

Adams, Leah M.; Balderson, Benjamin H.; Brown, Kathy; Bush, Staci E.; Packett, Bruce J., II – Health Education & Behavior, 2018
Uptake of preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has been slow, but is increasing. Although PrEP is indicated for many patients, it has been concentrated among men who have sex with men (MSM). Awareness of PrEP is limited among non-MSM individuals, and among some MSM. As such, individuals at risk for HIV who are unaware of PrEP must rely on their medical…

Spring C. Cooper; Anthony J. Santella; Matthew Caines; Chanapong Rojanaworarit; Alex Hernandez – Health Education Research, 2024
Despite the adoption of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) as a crucial HIV intervention, uptake remains suboptimal among men who have sex with men, a sexual minority group, due to barriers like cost and stigma. Peer change agents (PCAs) disseminate PrEP information within their social networks. This study explores the reciprocal effects of an online…

Serogroup C invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) outbreaks in men who have sex with men (MSM) have been occurring with greater frequency in urban areas across the United States.
