Interventions for HIV prevention and treatment among people of Haitian descent: a scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

People of Haitian descent were initially blamed as a cause of the HIV epidemic. Although progress has been made, people of Haitian descent have been disproportionately affected by both HIV and HIV stigma.

Objective

This scoping review aimed to assess publications focused on interventional HIV research with Haitian and Haitian-descent populations, particularly studies involving HIV prevention and treatment.

Eligibility criteria

The eligibility criteria for this scoping review were broad and included HIV prevention and/or treatment interventions that focused on people of Haitian descent. There were no date or language restrictions. We excluded review articles, opinions, editorials, supplement letters, withdrawn articles and viewpoints.
