Editorial Nonstigmatizing ways to engage HIV-positive African-American teens in mental health and support services: a commentary. free! 2003
Lyon ME, Woodward K. · No affiliation provided · J Natl Med Assoc. · Pubmed #12749679 links to free full text
Abstract: This commentary illustrates a hospital/adolescent-clinic based model for providing support services and for increasing medical adherence among HIV positive inner city African-American adolescents. This commentary reviews the racial/ethnic disparities in HIV disease among adolescents and describes a successful program model for overcoming stigma. Traditional support groups were rejected by youth with HIV/AIDS. Seven elements common to successful programs were identified. Successful programs built on designs described in the research literature. Focus groups composed of HIV-positive adolescents identified what they wanted and needed. Stigmatizing labels were avoided in naming programs. Practical barriers to access, such as transportation and childcare, were eliminated. Programs were skills oriented, culturally sensitive, and life affirming, focusing on healthy living. HIV-positive inner city African-American youth can be successfully recruited and engaged in hospital based programs. Although these programs were qualitatively evaluated by youth as successful and attrition was low and attendance averaged 50%, rigorous quantitative research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of such programs. We need quantitative research to successfully advocate for government funding. Stigma needs to be addressed openly in public health. Future research is needed to evaluate interventions to overcome the health consequences of stigma on utilization of available medical and mental health services.

Editorial AIDS research in developing countries: do the ends justify the means? 2002

Abstract: Concrete ethical standards for human research are clearly stipulated in both international and national codes of ethics, and are meant to protect human subjects, especially the most vulnerable. A recent clinical study conducted from 1994 to 1997 by Dr. Thomas C, Quinn, M.D. has fueled the debate raging in the scientific community regarding the ethics of clinical AIDS research in developing countries. Quinn's conducted a community-based, randomized, controlled study of 15,127 rural Ugandans to determine whether intermittent antibiotic treatment to reduce the prevalence of other sexually transmitted diseases would also reduce the rate of HIV transmission. Subsequently, the study identified 415 couples in which one partner was HIV positive and one was initially HIV negative and followed them prospectively for up to 30 months. Researchers were not permitted to inform the seronegative partner of the HIV status of the other partner. As a result, 90 of the initially HIV negative partners (21.7%) seroconverted during a follow-up period of 30 months. To allow for research studies in developing countries that are not permitted in the United States appears to make the Third World equivalent to a 'research sweat shop'. Developing nations offer easy access to patients, reduced costs, and less stringent regulations. This appears to create a double standard for medical research that is both ethically and humanly unacceptable, especially when other viable option exist. To allow relativism to seep into the international and national ethical standards will open the door to an idea that condones the possible abuse of those least able to protect themselves. Researchers have an ethical responsibility to uphold the integrity of these ethical standards. Failure to do so today may have a devastating impact on humanity in the future.
