Although the introduction of this therapy significantly improved the life span and quality of PWHA\, metabolic complications of these people remains to be an important issue. These metabolic complications include hyperlipidemia\, abnormal fat redistribution and diabetes mellitus\, which are defined as lipodystrophy syndrome. (Culha MG\, et al. Med Hypotheses. 2016) Glucagon-like peptide-1 agonists are a class of medications utilized in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. In this session\, Dr. Kirsten Balano\, PharmD\, AAAHIVP\, will review these class of drugs and discuss their benefits and precautions for treating HIV-associated metabolic adverse effects\, and therefore improve the quality and length of life in people with HIV. \nLearning Objectives:\nUpon completion of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe the value of Glucogon-like-protein-1 Receptor Agonists (GLP-1RA) for weight loss.\nApply updated diabetes standards to patients with HIV and Diabetes Type 2.\nInvestigate resources to access to GLP1RA for patients with HIV.\n\nPhysicians:\nThis activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint providership of the University of Nevada School of Medicine and the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center. The University of Nevada\, Reno School of Medicine is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education to physicians.The University of Nevada\, Reno School of Medicine designates this live activity for a maximum of 1.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity. \nNurses:\nNurses may receive continuing education credit for this educational activity as the ANCC accepts AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ through its reciprocity agreement. \nHIV Learning Network offers free CME for participants attending sessions\, pending completion of the post-session evaluation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented By:\nPacific AETC Regional Office\n\n\nContact Email:\nbrian.abascal@ucsf.edu\n\n\nContact Number:\n(415) 476-2434\n\n\nEvent Type:\nDistance based learning

Of those new infections\, 90% were attributed to heterosexual contact. Black women report that their needs are often overlooked by healthcare providers when serving communities at risk for HIV\, or even when addressing the general health needs of Black communities as a whole. In this session\, we’ve invited Lisa Frederick and Dr. Hanna Tessema\, co-founders of the Black Women’s Learning Institute\, to present on the findings of Engage. Empower. Educate (EEE)\, a national survey on Black women’s health and wellness.  From the results of the survey\, they will provide insight into Black women’s perspectives toward HIV care and prevention. Together\, we will examine the barriers that Black women face in engaging in HIV health care and prevention services and offer resources that are informed by their health and wellness needs. \nLearning Objectives:\nUpon completion of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify the top 3 health concerns that impact the lives of Black women in the EEE Survey\nExplain at least 4 barriers Black women encounter when navigating the healthcare system\nDescribe differences in PrEP knowledge among participants in the EEE survey by region\n\nPhysicians:\nThis activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint providership of the University of Nevada School of Medicine and the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center.

SUMMARY:HIVLN - HIV and Harm Reduction:A Cultural Approach
DESCRIPTION:Register \nJoin us for the next HIV Learning Network session on December 8 @ Noon (Pacific): HIV and Harm Reduction: A Cultural Approach​​\, by Gigi J. Simmons\, MD\, Clinical Educator\, Department of Family Medicine\, Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science. \nDescription: Harm reduction strategies help to lessen the harms associated with drug use and related behaviors to increase the risk of HIV infection. Harm reduction plays a significant role in preventing drug-related deaths and offering access to treatment\, social services\, and healthcare. Current narratives around harm reduction and recovery are dominated by a white lens\, depicting white communities as the most vulnerable victims of the current opioid crisis. From 2015 – 2020\, there was a 213% increase in overdose death rates for Black men – the largest increase experienced by any demographic group (Black Harm Reduction Network). In this session\, Dr. Gigi Simmons will explore the history of HIV and harm reduction in the Black community\, and examine how the media portrayal of HIV and harm reduction shape our views of how we approach harm reduction with Black people with HIV. \nLearning Objectives:\nUpon completion of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nDiscuss the meaning of constitutional rights\nExplore the history of HIV and harm reduction in the Black community\nEvaluate how the media portrays HIV and substance use\, is it helpful or harmful?\n\nPhysicians:\nThis activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint providership of the University of Nevada School of Medicine and the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center.

SUMMARY:HIVLN - Positive Health Access to Services and Treatment (PHAST) Program: Past\, Present and Future of Rapid Response and Engagement/Re-Engagement in HIV Treatment and Care
DESCRIPTION:Register \n  \nJoin us for the next HIV Learning Network session on October 13 @ Noon (Pacific): Positive Health Access to Services and Treatment (PHAST) Program: Past\, Present and Future of Rapid Response and Engagement/Re-Engagement in HIV Treatment and Care​\, by Sandra Torres\, MSW\, PHAST/RAPID Social Worker\, Ward 86\, USCF. \nDescription: Rapid response to new HIV diagnoses is national key strategy to ending HIV in the US to improving linkage\, engagement and retention in HIV care. Rapid HIV antiretroviral (Rapid ART) programs work to reduce the time it takes for people newly diagnosed with HIV to engage in HIV care and receive a prescription to begin ART\, thereby dramtically reducing the time it takes for a person to achieve HIV viral load suppression. Acheiving viral suppression in a quicker time period helps to reduce HIV transmission\, a key goal of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy and the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. initiative. In this session\, we invited Sandra Torres\, MSW\, of the UCSF Ward 86 Positive Health Access to Services and Treatment (or PHAST) team to share their HIV rapid response model\, and engage us in case discussions that demonstrate how the model can be applied to people receving new HIV diagnoses. \nLearning Objectives:\nUpon completion of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify three (3) barriers that patients face in engaging in HIV medical care\nList two (2) steps to creating a RAPID ART program\n\nPhysicians:\nThis activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the Essential Areas and Policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education through the joint providership of the University of Nevada School of Medicine and the Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center.
