NR 503 Week 7: Discussion- Presentation of Epidemiological Problem Abstract
You will present your findings from your problem paper this week. You will create an abstract that summarizes your findings. Your abstract should be between 100 and 500 words long. Remember that an abstract should summarize your research, including key themes and problems, as well as your main conclusions.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) incidence, prevalence, and mortality rate in Atlanta, Georgia is the topic I chose for my epidemiological problem assignment. The goal of this paper is to identify this disease problem in my community and provide a background of the disease, current surveillance methods and any mandated reporting, descriptive epidemiology analysis, diagnosis and screening, and a plan of action supported by literature.
HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system of the body, specifically the CD4 cells, via blood, sperm, vaginal fluid, and breastfeeding. If HIV is not treated, it can progress to AIDS. The signs and symptoms of HIV vary depending on the person and stage. It requires both laboratories and healthcare providers to report new HIV and AIDS cases and subsequent lab tests within seven days (DPH, 2018).
Using an evidence-based researches and literature, the writer compared HIV cumulative incidence, prevalence, and mortality rate from 2014 to 2016 by different race, ethnicity, and population. According to the data, the 2016 proportion of people with diagnosed

HIV was 44% among African Americans, 83% of Hispanic/Latino, and 28% among Asians (CDC, 2018b). With those racial groups, the most affected subpopulations were male who had sexual contact with a male. 52% of African Americans died from HIV disease, 916 deaths among Hispanics/Latinos, and 53 American Indians and Alaska Native from 2014 to 2016 (2018a). In 2016, aged between 13 to 24 made up 21% of new HIV diagnoses in the United States and 81 % of them occurred among bisexual men and young gay (CDC, 2018a)….

Your abstract touches on how problematic and serious HIV/AIDs are in the United States and more specifically, Atlanta. My problem topic was on syphilis. A lot of your information about HIV is quite similar to my findings. Syphilis is more common in men (especially MSM) and in minorities. The ways to prevent syphilis is the same as HIV: wearing condoms, limiting sexual partners, not selling sex for money, and so forth. Our target population are the same and education is seriously needed in order to stop this STD epidemic. Both STDs can progress and can cause serious harm if not screened in time. Frequent screening for our high-risk populations are needed; therefore, early diagnosing and treatment can be provided. Both problems are reportable diseases to the local health department. We as health care providers should continue to use the CDC as a reference to help them in managing positive syphilis and HIV cases…..
Veterinary Epidemiology is the study of the spread of disease in animals.
Humans have strong bonds with their pets and other animals (e.g., local wildlife and animals on a farm).
Veterinary epidemiology, like human epidemiology, studies the link between negative consequences and a specific probable ’cause’ of interest, such as chemical exposure or disease agent exposure.
Veterinary epidemiology, for example, can play a critical role in emerging and global disease outbreaks, assisting in the understanding and prevention of infections and other emerging diseases, such as those transmitted from one animal to another and those that may be transmitted from animals to humans.
A veterinary epidemiological investigation looked into the transmission of Salmonella typhimurium from cattle that had not been given growth-promoting drugs to humans who came into close contact with the sick animals.
SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) is another example (SARS).
Viruses related with SARS were recovered from Himalayan palm civets found in a live-animal market in Guangdong, China, as part of an inquiry into the origins of the SARS outbreak in China. Evidence of virus infection was also found in other animals and humans working at the same market.
The discovery of these viruses in small, live wild mammals in a retail market assisted in the identification of at least one mode of interspecies transmission, namely infected animals sold to human clients in that market.
