Clinical Approaches to Marginalized Populations

Clinical Approaches to Marginalized Populations

In part 1 of this eHIV Review Special Edition (still available at eHIVreview.org), eHIV Review Program Director Justin Alves, Nurse Educator at Boston Medical Center, reviewed the recent evidence describing some of the barriers to care experienced by marginalized individuals at risk for or living with HIV. In this Part 2 issue, he again calls upon two front-line clinicians in the fight to end the HIV epidemic in the U.S. — Nicky Mehtani, MD, from UCSF Medical Center in San Francisco, and Vanessa Loukas, NP, from Boston University’s Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine —to share their clinical approaches.

What do HCPs need to know to understand the unique needs of these underserved populations? How can they provide meaningful, helpful, and culturally sensitive care? What barriers continue to prevent their being brought into the HIV care continuum?

Clinical and Radiologic Features of an MS Prodrome

In this issue: Individuals with cystic fibrosis — adults as well infants and children — have long struggled to gain and maintain their weight. But how has the current widespread use of highly effective modulator treatments — HEMT — changed that situation? That’s the focus of this eCysticFibrosis Review Special Edition: CF and Nutrition and HEMT. The first part of this program presented an evidence-based Expert Commentary on the current status of weight gain, obesity, and nutrition among people with CF by guest author Katie McDonald, PhD, MS, RDN, CSP, a clinical dietitian at Primary Children's Medical Center in Salt Lake City. The second part is a podcast interview, providing further in-depth discussions between Katie McDonald and three top CF nutrition experts.
