Hypersexuality and couple relationships in bipolar disorder: A review
2016, Journal of Affective DisordersCitation Excerpt :These findings are of particular interest as they are consistent with the earlier studies (Allison and Wilson, 1960; Clayton et al., 1963; Carlson and Goodwin, 1973). Specifically, bipolar women were likely to engage in sex with intravenous drug users and with partners who had AIDS (Volavka et al., 1991). They were also more likely to be forced into sex by a partner or to be raped (Özcan et al., 2014).
Prevalence of HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C in people with severe mental illness: A systematic review and meta-analysis
2016, The Lancet PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :However, serious mental illness might not be an isolated risk factor for blood-borne virus infection, but might be better thought of as a potentially confounded association with poor socioeconomic background, drug and alcohol misuse, sex, and ethnic origin. Three USA studies18,21,26 included odds ratios adjusted for risk factors and showed that they significantly increased the risk of HIV and other blood-borne viral infections. However, these studies were done in settings where dual diagnosis of substance misuse and mental illness is very common.
HIV issues and people with disabilities: A review and agenda for research
2013, Social Science and MedicineCitation Excerpt :Studies with people with disabilities or staff and key informants report relatively high rates of unsafe sex and other risk behaviours including substance use, transactional sex, and reported incidence of previous sexually transmitted diseases (Blanchett, 2000; Brown, Kessel, Lourie, Ford, & Lipsitt, 1997; Cambridge, 1996; Carey, Carey, & Kalichman, 1997; Carey et al., 1999; Carey, Carey, Maisto, Gordon, & Vanable, 2001; Carey, Carey, Maisto, Schroder, et al., 2004; Chandra et al., 2003; Chopra et al., 1998; Choquet, Du Pasquier Fediaevsky, & Manfredi, 1997; Chuang & Atkinson, 1996; Collins, Elkington, et al., 2008; Collins, von Unger, & Armbrister, 2008; Davidson et al., 2001; Devieux et al., 2007; Gordon et al., 1999; Grassi, Pavanati, et al., 1999; Grassi, Peron, Ferri, & Pavanati, 1999; Kalichman, Kelly, Johnson, & Bulto, 1994; Katz et al., 1994; Kelly et al., 1992, 1995; Maart & Jelsma, 2010; Meade & Sikkema, 2005, 2007; Menon & Pomerantz, 1997; Menon et al., 1994; Myer et al., 2009; Ogunsemi et al., 2006; Olaleye, Anoemuah, Ladipo, Delano, & Idowu, 2007; Otto-Salaj et al., 1998; Randolph et al., 2009; Rohleder, 2010; Rosenberg, Goodman, et al., 2001; Rosenberg, Trumbetta, et al., 2001; Smit et al., 2006; Susser et al., 1995; Thompson, 1994; Touko, Mboua, Tohmuntain, & Perrot, 2010; Vanable, Carey, Carey, & Maisto, 2007; Walkup, Sambamoorthi, & Crystal, 1999; Weinhardt, Carey, & Carey, 1998). Substance use (alcohol and drug) was found to be a risk factor, particularly for people with mental health problems, which increased the risk for unsafe sex and HIV infection (Brown et al., 1997; Carey et al., 1999, 2001; Cournos et al., 1991; Davidson et al., 2001; Devieux et al., 2007; Empfield et al., 1993; Essock et al., 2003; Grassi, Pavanati, et al., 1999; Grassi, Peron, et al., 1999; Hoff, Beam-Goulet, & Rosenheck, 1997; Kalichman et al., 1994; Kelly et al., 1992, 1995; Loue, Sajatovic, & Mendez, 2011; Meade, 2006; Menon & Pomerantz, 1997; Otto-Salaj et al., 1998; Rosenberg, Goodman, et al., 2001; Rosenberg, Trumbetta, et al., 2001; Stewart, Zuckerman, & Ingle, 1994; Susser et al., 1995; Volavka et al., 1991; Weinhardt et al., 1998; Weinhardt, Carey, Carey, Maisto, & Gordon, 2001). Two studies found that HIV risk behaviours are associated with severity of mental health disability (Heaphy, Loue, Sajatovic, & Tisch, 2010; Rosenberg, Drake, Brunette, Wolford, & Marsh, 2005), although a third study did not find any significant associations with different mental health disabilities (Collins, Berkman, Mestry, & Pillai, 2009).
Psychiatric barriers and the international AIDS epidemic
2012, Sande's HIV/AIDS Medicine: Medical Management of AIDS 2013Receipt of preventive medical care and medical screening for patients with mental illness: A comparative analysis
2010, General Hospital PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :Among those with mental illness, there is higher than expected mortality rate and higher rates of medical comorbidity compared with the general population [4]. People diagnosed with psychiatric illness also carry a higher rate of background risk factors including obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, cigarette smoking, physical inactivity and HIV risk behaviors [5–7]. Surveys suggest that psychiatric patients consider their receipt of primary care to be lower than the general population [8] and there is evidence to support this belief [9,10].
