HIV Care Today http://www.thebodypro.com/content/art60462.html HIV Care Today is a multi-author blog featuring people on the frontlines of HIV treatment, prevention and patient/client care. This blog serves as a platform for these health care professionals to discuss the everyday challenges of their jobs, recent developments in their fields and issues relevant to the evolution of HIV/AIDS care. http://www.thebodypro.com/content/art60462.htmlhttp://img.thebody.com/thebody/blogfeeds/bluehands_140x140.gifHIV Care Today HIVCareTodayhttp://feedburner.google.com Enough With the HIV Treatment Cascade Research, Let's Do Something About It Already http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~3/G0tF-BM7ulE/enough-with-the-hiv-treatment-cascade-research-let.html <p><IMG SRC="http://img.thebody.com/images/mugs/lfitzpatrick_115x145.gif" border="0" WIDTH="115" HEIGHT="145" hspace="8" vspace="8" ALT="Lisa Fitzpatrick, M.D., M.P.H" align="right">If I hear or read another proclamation about the "HIV treatment cascade" and the need for more research to understand engagement in care, I am going to scream! There, I said it. It seems this cascade -- described initially by Laura Cheever at HRSA and most recently and formally by Gardner and colleagues -- has taken the HIV world by storm. It has captivated the field of HIV practitioners, advocates, researchers and scientists and peppers nearly every lecture at conferences and conversations at the watercooler.

Fortunately, for the first time these Guidelines are also available in their entirety online in an HTML version, which is undoubtedly how most will access them, and certainly make them easier to update.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thebodypro.com/content/71476/hiv-opportunistic-infection-guidelines-updated.html">Read more ...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:-BTjWOF_DHI"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:-BTjWOF_DHI" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:TzevzKxY174"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=TzevzKxY174" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=mb1m4PIAmqc:KmNRz5UziqQ:l6gmwiTKsz0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=l6gmwiTKsz0" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~4/mb1m4PIAmqc" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.thebodypro.com/content/71476/hiv-opportunistic-infection-guidelines-updated.html Wed, 8 May 2013 08:00:00 GMT http://www.thebodypro.com/content/71476/hiv-opportunistic-infection-guidelines-updated.html MyHIVclinic.org: Rethinking How We Learn to Practice HIV Medicine http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~3/uEEp1GOQFMM/myhivclinicorg-rethinking-how-we-learn-to-practice.html <p><IMG SRC="http://img.thebody.com/bios/byoung_bio.gif" border="0" WIDTH="115" HEIGHT="128" hspace="8" vspace="8" ALT="Benjamin Young, M.D., Ph.D." align="right"><p>Less than 20 years ago, when I started doing HIV/AIDS care, most of my patients died within a year or two of their diagnosis.

Tina, that is. Crystal, crank, meth, ice, amp -- all slang for the same drug: methamphetamine. In the early part of the millennium, meth was pervasive both in rural America and in urban gay communities. Its use peaked around 2005 when, following a federal law limiting access to its primary precursor, pseudoephedrine, usage seemed to drop. In gay communities, men became aware of its hazards as they watched friends lose lovers, jobs, health, freedom and even their lives. Pursued by law enforcement, hardcore users went underground but never really went away. Now, because of the cycles of recreational drugs, a new generation, short memories, and the seductive power of this dopamine-releasing supermolecule, the drug appears to be making a comeback, at least in the gay community.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thebodypro.com/content/70685/meth-makes-an-ominous-comeback-among-gay-men.html">Read more ...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:-BTjWOF_DHI"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:-BTjWOF_DHI" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:TzevzKxY174"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=TzevzKxY174" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=hQdr4LUG_KM:DeUKUhObOVs:l6gmwiTKsz0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=l6gmwiTKsz0" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~4/hQdr4LUG_KM" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.thebodypro.com/content/70685/meth-makes-an-ominous-comeback-among-gay-men.html Sun, 3 Mar 2013 07:58:00 GMT http://www.thebodypro.com/content/70685/meth-makes-an-ominous-comeback-among-gay-men.html An Adherence Intervention That Works -- But There's a Catch http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~3/-ykRgpStDsI/an-adherence-intervention-that-works--but-theres-a.html <p><IMG SRC="http://img.thebody.com/images/mugs/paul_blogbox.gif" border="0" WIDTH="115" HEIGHT="145" hspace="8" vspace="8" ALT="Paul E.

A simple tap on the screen of a smart phone or consultation with a car's GPS device instantly reports our location on the planet with almost absurd precision. Such effortless ability to locate ourselves in time and space can shroud the complications of maintaining emotional bearings in the more ambiguous, upside-down world of living with HIV. Those who are newly diagnosed, as well as long-term survivors, are buffeted by the powerful forces unleashed by living with or around HIV, and frequently find it challenging to maneuver this emotional

He avoided eye contact and described a particularly painful experience with stigma. He had recently come around the corner at his part-time job and heard several co-workers speaking about him and his HIV positive status. More specifically, they were discussing how he might have acquired the virus by speculating about the nature and frequency of his sexual activities. It was meant as a cheap laugh among themselves, but for Todd it meant much more. Although he made no effort to hide his HIV status and was "out" at the office about being gay, hearing his co-workers making disparaging remarks about his sex life and his health status in such explicit terms felt like a strong punch in his gut. He had a brief flash of anger, telling them to shut up, and then stormed out, pulling inward and automatically falling into the old habit of numbing himself by detaching from the emotional pain.</p> <p><a href="http://www.thebodypro.com/content/68755/living-with-hiv-are-we-damaged-goods.html">Read more ...</a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:-BTjWOF_DHI"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:-BTjWOF_DHI" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?i=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:TzevzKxY174"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=TzevzKxY174" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?a=ewaBEehwVVQ:w9GTBQqG2fk:l6gmwiTKsz0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HIVCareToday?d=l6gmwiTKsz0" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HIVCareToday/~4/ewaBEehwVVQ" height="1" width="1"/> http://www.thebodypro.com/content/68755/living-with-hiv-are-we-damaged-goods.html davidfawcett@earthlink.net (David Fawcett, Ph.D., L.C.S.W.)
