TL;DR: There is an urgent need for effective interventions to decrease crack use and unprotected sex and to improve antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence in people living with HIV.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that when the results of clinical assessments do not lead to obvious screening decisions or when physicians feel uncertain about their clinical assessments, they are more likely to make patient-centered recommendations.

TL;DR: Using triangulation between 3 well-validated mortality indices, 10%-15% of RC/AL residents are in good health and highly likely to benefit from preventive services that require ≥5 year life expectancy.

TL;DR: The co-occurrence of the change in policy and the study of a HIV seroprevalence study among incoming prisoners provided a natural experiment to assess the impact of the testing policy on HIV case detection of both newly diagnosed and previously diagnosed cases.

TL;DR: Examining demographic, clinical, and psychosocial factors associated with limitations in four specific domains of HRQOL among persons initially entering outpatient HIV care at four sites in the United States found female gender was significantly associated with sub-optimalHRQOL with women having increased odds of reporting HRQol challenges with pain, mood, mobility, and usual activity.
