In an earlier study, the study team carried out an HIV/Sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing approach which found men who have sex with men (MSM) at-risk of getting or spreading HIV in online spaces and linked them to testing services on a mobile van. The goal of this present study is to add on to this approach by connecting participants (MSM aged 18-49 residing in Baltimore City) with a peer health navigator to support them with getting pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or HIV care services after testing. Researchers will compare using a peer health navigator approach to using a referrals-only approach to get PrEP or HIV care services. Participants will be assigned to either Arm A (group that receives peer health navigator help) or Arm B (group that gets referred) to get PrEP or HIV care.
The objective is to estimate the efficacy of tinidazole for the treatment of Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) among male patients who have been diagnosed with non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) at the Public Health - Seattle \&King County (PHSKC) Sexual Health Clinic (SHC). Tinidazole was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in May 2004 to treat other infections (i.e., trichomoniasis, giardiasis, amebiasis, bacterial vaginosis) but has not been systematically tested for effectiveness against M. genitalium. The dosing that the investigators are proposing does not significantly increase the risk associated with taking tinidazole and this investigation meets criteria for an IND exemption.
The goal of this study is to help young people talk to trusted adults (including their parents, but also other adults) about sexual health more openly and honestly- including how to prevent sexually transmitted diseases like HIV - while also respecting a young person's right to privacy. If youth don't have a parent they can talk to about sexual health, we want to help them find a trusted adult to talk to. We also want to help youth take control of their own health by learning about different ways to protect their health.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an educational video and workbook can help gynecologic cancer patients talk to their cancer providers about sexual health concerns. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do gynecologic cancer patients who take part in the educational program and get a resource booklet talk to their cancer clinicians more about sexual health concerns than patients who get a resource booklet alone? 2. Do gynecologic cancer patients who take part in the educational program and get a resource booklet have better sexual function and less anxiety and depression than patients who get a resource booklet alone? Researchers will compare those who get the educational program and the resource booklet to those who get the resource booklet alone. Participants will: 1. Fill out a consent form and survey 2. Have their next clinic visit audio recorded 3. Fill out another survey right after their clinic visit 4. Fill out a final survey 6 months after their clinic visit
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of the web-based intervention OMGYES.com on sexual dysfunction in young adult (YA) female-bodied cancer survivors. This pilot trial seeks to evaluate the intervention's: * feasibility * acceptability * appropriateness.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessing the impact of health and wellness products on sexual health and related health outcomes
This study is a 2-arm cluster randomized controlled trial with approximately 1,200 youth aged 14-19 years to assess the effectiveness of Yes and Know, a sexual health education program. To be eligible, participants must be 14-19 years old and English-speaking. Those in the treatment arm will receive Yes and Know, a synchronous virtual program delivered over multiple sessions totaling nine hours, along with asynchronous online activities and resources. Those in the control arm will receive a similarly structured program focused on nutrition education. Participants will complete brief online surveys at baseline and at 3 and 12 months after the synchronous sessions. The study will assess the program's effectiveness in reducing the prevalence of unprotected sex among youth and improving short-term outcomes, such as knowledge of reproductive health and healthy relationships, self-efficacy, and the use of reproductive health services.
This study proposes to pilot an online intervention to support father-teen health-promoting talk about sex and relationships using Social Cognitive Theory, and to evaluate this intervention's acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy, using an Intervention Mapping approach. This study involves conducting a pilot intervention with 50 pairs of fathers and their high-school aged teens. Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed through program data such as participants' pilot enrollment, lesson feedback, and program retention, survey data and member checks through debrief interviews (5 father, 5 teens). Preliminary assessment of directionality of change in participants' health-related knowledge, self-efficacy, and outcome expectations over the course of the pilot intervention (pre- and post-intervention surveys) to determine whether a full-scale R01 is warranted.
SHAREonline is a study for young female cancer survivors that are experiencing changes in sexual health and function. The purpose of this research is to compare two brief interventions delivered by videoconference to learn if they help women effectively manage these changes and restore sexual health and functioning.
SHAG is a text messaging-based HIV prevention program designed for cisgender sexual minority boys and men 13-20 years of age across the United States. Investigators will test it against a control group that receives messages about healthy lifestyle.
