Whittle HJ, et al. - In a prospective cohort study of women who have or at risk of HIV in the United States, the Women's Interagency HIV Study, researchers focused on how food security (FS) is linked with symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), stress, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The majority of the 2,553 women included were African American/black (71.6%). Increasingly higher GAD-7 scores, with 1.41, 2.03, and 3.23 times higher odds of screening positive for moderate-to-severe GAD were reported in relation to current marginal, low, and very low FS, respectively, after adjusting for sociodemographic and health-related factors including HIV serostatus. In addition, 1.93 times higher odds of screening positive for PTSD was reported in relation to very low FS. Overall, a possible association of food insecurity with a range of poor mental health outcomes was suggested in this study among women in the United States with or at risk of HIV.
