The Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Stress, Health, Relationships, and Medications for Older Adults Living with HIV in Palm Springs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cross-sectional, internet-based surveys were conducted to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on daily stress for older adults living with HIV in Palm Springs, CA (N=100). Participants’ mean age was 64.2, most were non-Hispanic white (88.0%), men (96.0%) and identified as gay or lesbian (93.0%). Respondents reported high compliance with physical distancing (96.0%) and mask wearing (98.0%). One-third of respondents experienced financial challenges. A quarter (24.0%) skipped a dose of their HIV medication during COVID-19 and many experienced disruptions to their healthcare (46.0%). Decreases in the quality of relationships with friends was reported by 40.7% of respondents. DSM criteria for PTSD was met by 22.0%. Younger (ages 51-63) respondents were significantly more likely to report financial challenges, miss HIV medication doses, and have higher PTSD severity scores. In an adjusted logistic regression, higher PTSD severity scores and disruption to healthcare were associated with missing doses (p’s <.05).
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
