We will assess depression, anxiety, and substance use in adolescents at risk for a living with HIV. We will also assess the feasibility, acceptability and safety of a previously adapted version of the Friendship Bench (Bench). The Friendship Bench is a youth lay counsellor technique modelled after a previous study …
Rates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use, sleep disorders and suicide are disproportionately higher in persons living with HIV (PLWH). The Syndemic Model of Substance Abuse, Intimate Partner Violence, and HIV (SAVA Syndemic), refers to the frequent co-occurrence and mutual influence between these conditions. The SAVA Syndemic has not …
The purpose of this research study is to examine the impact of medications (methadone, buprenorphine, or extended-release naltrexone) used to treat opioid use disorder on the immune system — the body’s ability to fight infection. The study will try to find out how these opioid treatment medications affect immune function. …
Coinfection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is common among HIV infected patients. HIV exacerbates HCV-related metabolic complications, and coinfected patients have a higher risk of sarcopenia, visceral adiposity, hepatic steatosis, and bone fracture than those with HCV alone, HIV alone, or uninfected persons. Understanding these associations in HIV+/HCV+ patients, how …
Use of an HIV+ deceased donor could increase the risk of death, transplant-related or HIV-related complications; alternatively with effective antiretroviral treatment and careful HIV+ donor selection, these risks may be comparable to kidney transplant using an HIV-negative donor. We hypothesize that receiving a kidney transplant from an HIV+ donor will …

During the study, participants will take either varenicline (brand name Chantix®) or use the nicotine patch, and they will receive smoking cessation therapy with …
Project Summary Within a year of hip fracture 20-30% of patients die, and 50% percent lose the ability to walk. A consensus exists that infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or the hepatis C virus (HCV) increases the likelihood of fracture risk. Co-infection with HIV and HCV is prevalent …
Study Purpose: The goal of this study is to learn more about how opiate use and HIV affects inflammation in the brain. We will study this using a type of Positron Emission Tomography (PET/CT) scan using a radioactive imaging drug called 18F-NOS that can be used to measure inflammation in …
The main purpose of this study is to try a new type of laboratory test for COVID-19 (also called SARS-CoV-2 or novel coronavirus). COVID-19 is a new disease, so not enough is known about it yet. This study hopes to collect more information about who is most as risk from …
The purpose of this study is to develop algorithms that may help detect depressive symptoms in social media posts, specifically among men who have sex with men and who have HIV.
