Our study incorporates an anti-racist research framework that proposes considering racism as a foundational sociocultural system that causes ill health. We expand the framework to include biases due to gender, sexual orientation, HIV status and membership in other non-dominant groups. Our research programme focuses on HPV-related OPC among people living with PLWH, and on how intersecting identities may impact an individual’s experience with oral health, obtaining regular and appropriate oral healthcare, knowledge and perceptions of oral HPV infection, risk factors for OPC and HPV vaccination.  \nMethods and analysis We will follow a grounded theory (GT) qualitative research methodology using focus group discussions (FGDs) to collect data. We will invite PLWH with intersecting identities to participate in one of 12–18 FGDs with 5–8 participants per group. Focus groups will be formed based on self-reported domains, including race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation and other identities that could impact oral health, such as smoking status, experience with homelessness or experience with drug use disorders. We do not know which aspects of intersecting identities are most salient to accessing oral healthcare. Using FGDs will allow us to gain this knowledge in a setting where participants can build on and reinforce shared understandings about oral healthcare. Following our GT methodology, analysis will occur concurrently with data collection, and emerging concepts or theories may result in changes to focus group guide questions. Initial focus group questions will be organised around our main objectives: (1) to identify individual,  \nSTRENGTHS AND LIMITATIONS OF THIS STUDY   \n⇒ This study is the first step in a research programme using an anti-racist research framework that considers intersecting identities as factors in the oral health experiences of people living with HIV (PLWH) .  \n⇒ The study uses grounded theory as the qualitative research methodology, facilitating the emergence of theories from the study participants and the gathered data.  \n⇒ The study recruits participants from an established clinic with a diverse patient population, enabling a large number of foc","cbCaisIenabowIQm","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisIenabowIQm","pdf",639514,"English","# Abstract\n## Introduction\n## Methods and analysis\n## Strengths and limitations of this study\n## Ethics and dissemination\n# Introduction\n## Background and rationale\n## Anti-racist/anti-intersectional bias research framework","[{\"question\":\"What is the main objective of this HEOHP qualitative study?\",\"answer\":\"To design culturally appropriate, patient-specific interventions for primary and secondary prevention of HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer among people living with HIV.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the study incorporate an anti-racist research framework?\",\"answer\":\"It treats racism as a foundational sociocultural system causing ill health and expands the framework to include intersecting biases related to gender, sexual orientation, HIV status, and other non-dominant groups.\"},{\"question\":\"What qualitative method will the study use and how will focus groups be structured?\",\"answer\":\"It will use grounded theory with focus group discussions (12–18 FGDs) of 5–8 participants each, grouped by self-reported domains such as race, ethnicity, gender identity, and sexual orientation, as well as other identities affecting oral health.\"}]","Using an anti-racist research framework to design studies of oral human papillomavirus and oropharyngeal cancer in San Francisco - rationale and protocol for the Health Equity and Oral Health in People living with HIV (HEOHP) qualitative study | PDF",1790034352,25]
