Sexually Transmitted Infections01:26

Sexually Transmitted Infections

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are diseases transmitted primarily through unsafe sexual interactions. Bacteria, viruses, or parasites cause them and can result in severe health complications if untreated.ChlamydiaThe bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for the disease Chlamydia, the most common STI in the United States. This peculiar pathogen requires human cells to reproduce, residing intracellularly. The initial infection often goes unnoticed because it typically does not...
Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures01:22

Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...
Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...
Genital Herpes01:23

Genital Herpes

Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection primarily caused by herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), though herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is increasingly implicated in genital infections, particularly among younger populations. Transmission occurs mainly through sexual contact, with asymptomatic viral shedding serving as a major route of spread. This characteristic makes HSV-2 difficult to control at a population level, as individuals may unknowingly transmit the virus even in the...
Retrovirus Life Cycles01:10

Retrovirus Life Cycles

Retroviruses have a single-stranded RNA genome that undergoes a special form of replication. Once the retrovirus has entered the host cell, an enzyme called reverse transcriptase synthesizes double-stranded DNA from the retroviral RNA genome. This DNA copy of the genome is then integrated into the host’s genome inside the nucleus via an enzyme called integrase. Consequently, the retroviral genome is transcribed into RNA whenever the host’s genome is transcribed, allowing the retrovirus to...
Automated Microbial Diagnostics01:24

Automated Microbial Diagnostics

Automated diagnostic analyzers have transformed clinical microbiology by providing rapid and reliable methods for pathogen identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing. Among these systems, the Vitek 2 is widely used because it automates the traditionally labor-intensive processes of microbial identification (ID) and antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST), delivering standardized and timely results that are essential for effective patient care.Microbial Identification with ID CardsThe...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Psychology
  • Sociology

Background:

  • HIV-related stigma persists despite advances in treatment and awareness.
  • Stigma negatively impacts psychosocial well-being and healthcare engagement for people with HIV.
  • Understanding stigma dimensions is crucial for effective patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess HIV-related stigma across four dimensions using Berger's HIV Stigma Scale.
  • To compare stigma levels between different age groups (≤50 vs. >50 years).
  • To identify psychosocial vulnerability in people living with HIV within a clinical setting.

Main Methods:

  • An observational study involving 1296 adults living with HIV at a Spanish tertiary hospital (2019-2024).
  • Utilized a validated online version of Berger's HIV Stigma Scale integrated into electronic medical records.
  • Analyzed stigma dimensions overall and compared by age group.
  • Main Results:

    • A high burden of stigma was observed across all dimensions.
    • Concerns about disclosure (91.8% cautious) and concealment (88.3%) were most prevalent.
    • Participants ≤50 years reported higher internalized stigma, including negative self-image and personalized stigma.

    Conclusions:

    • HIV-related stigma remains a significant issue in routine clinical care.
    • Systematic stigma assessment is vital for identifying psychosocial vulnerability.
    • Findings support the need for person-centered care strategies to address stigma.
