Myocardial Infarction And Heart Failure Hospitalization Rates In Maine, Usa – Variability Along The Urban-Rural Continuum, David E. Harris, A. M. Aboueissa, David Hartley
Myocardial Infarction And Heart Failure Hospitalization Rates In Maine, Usa – Variability Along The Urban-Rural Continuum, David E. Harris, A. M. Aboueissa, David Hartley
David Hartley
Cardiovascular disease, including myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF), remains the leading cause of death in wealthy countries and is of increasing concern in low- and middle-income countries as risk factors such as smoking and obesity become more common around the globe. Within each country the health burden of MI and HF generally falls more heavily on those who live in rural areas and on those who live in communities with lower average socioeconomic status (SES). Hospitalization rates are an important measure of community health because high rates may indicate a high burden of poor health, while inappropriately low …

Childhood Sexual Abuse In Black Men Who Have Sex With Men: Results From Three Qualitative Studies, Sheldon D. Fields, David J. Malebranche, Sonja Feist-Price
Childhood Sexual Abuse In Black Men Who Have Sex With Men: Results From Three Qualitative Studies, Sheldon D. Fields, David J. Malebranche, Sonja Feist-Price
David J Malebranche
This report describes the high prevalence and context of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) among Black men who have sex with men (MSM) across 3 independent qualitative studies. Semistructured one-on-one interviews were conducted with 87 Black MSM across 3 cities (Rochester, NY, n=28; Lexington, KY/Atlanta, GA, n=30; and Atlanta, GA, n =29). A combined CSA prevalence of 32% (28/87) was found among the 3 samples, despite variation in geographic location, mean age, and sexual identification. Common themes emerging across the 3 samples included prolonged and repeated abuse by a close male relative; blaming of same-sex desire on CSA; and descriptions of …
Bisexually Active Black Men In The United States And Hiv: Acknowledging More Than The "Down Low", David J. Malebranche
Bisexually Active Black Men In The United States And Hiv: Acknowledging More Than The "Down Low", David J. Malebranche
David J Malebranche
HIV is disproportionately impacting Black men who have sex with men and heterosexual women in theUnited States. Current speculation posits a ‘‘bisexual bridge’’ of HIV transmission connecting these two subpopulations of the Black community. Specifically, bisexually active Black men who identify as heterosexual but do not disclose their same-sex behavior, or ‘‘down low’’ (DL) men, have received the most attention and blame as the primary group fueling this epidemic. This essay explores the current knowledge and limitations of public health research on bisexually active Black men. Implications for future research initiatives are discussed.
