- Syndemics Do Not Come Out of a Vaccum Dr. Trevor Hart, Department of Psychology, Ryerson University Syndemic models have allowed for an understanding of how gay and bisexual men are at risk for a multitude of health problems. The Minority Stress Model and the related Psychological Mediation Framework add depth to the syndemic model by explaining why and how gay and bisexual men experience these multiple health problems. Dr. Hart will review the available literature and will add his own recent findings explaining how health behaviours occur in the context of a discriminatory environment. Dr. Hart will also discuss the strengths and limitations of these models, especially regarding the resilience of gay and bisexual men.
- Various syndemics (although not always labeled as such) have been described in the literature already, including the SAVA syndemic (substance abuse, violence and AIDS) (Singer, 1996), the hookworm, malaria and HIV/AIDS syndemic (Hotez, 2003), the Chagas disease, rheumatic heart disease and congestive heart failure syndemic (Cubillos-Garzon, Casas, Morillo, & Bautista, 2004), the asthma and infectious disease syndemic (Johnson & Martin, 2005), the malnutrition and depression syndemic (Heflin, Siefert, & Williams, 2005), and the mental health and HIV/AIDS syndemic (Stall et al., 2003). Additionally, several syndemics have been identified that involve STDs (Chesson, Heffelfinger, Voigt, & Collins, 2005; Craib, Meddings, & Strathdee, 1995; Otten, Zaidi, Peterman, Rolfs, & Witte, 1994). Here too, researchers report interactions between comorbid STDs and other diseases (Nusbaum, Wallace, Slatt, & Kondrad, 2004).

- All of these psychological problems predicted each other (with the exception of childhood sexual abuse and multiple drug use)
- Similar findings among heterosexual women (Cohen et. al, 2000) in AJPH, with CSA, domestic violence, and lifetime drug use being correlated with each other, AND all of these being associated with HIV risk behaviors (e.g., lifetime # of male sex partners, ever forced to have sex with HIV+ partner)
