对非裔美国妇女中不成比例的艾滋病毒/艾滋病发病率进行了广泛的研究，主要是从以个人为中心的角度进行的。除了个人行为之外，非裔美国男性的高监禁率和地理上的劣势集中等因素可能更好地解释了不公平的疾病负担。在这篇文章中，我提出了一个影响非洲裔美国妇女中艾滋病毒传播的个人、社会和结构因素的概念模型。该模型可用于开发全面的评估，并指导非裔美国人社区的预防项目。
Disproportionate HIV/AIDS rates among African American women have been examined extensively, primarily from an individual-centered focus. Beyond individual behaviors, factors such as the hyperincarceration of African American men and geographically concentrated disadvantage may better explain inequitable disease burden. In this article I propose a conceptual model of individual, social, and structural factors that influence HIV transmission among African American women. The model can be used to develop comprehensive assessments and guide prevention programs in African American communities.
