“…Women engaged in sex work may practice more regular condom use, as shown by a studies of women with opioid use disorder [56,57] but, on the other hand, they may have elevated injection risk, such as the higher number of injections per day and receptive syringe sharing [58]. Studies from Kenya [32] and Vietnam [59 ▪ ] confirmed that depressive symptomatology among PWID has an adverse effect on sexual and injection risk behaviors.…”

“…An ethnographic study from Bangladesh found that WWID were compelled into risky injecting and sexual behaviors as the refusal could harm the relationships or instigate violence from their intimate partners [60]. Women with opioid use disorder recruited in pretrial detention centers in the United States had higher composite sex risk scores compared with men, which was further increased by cocaine use [57]. A study in Ukraine found that a staggering 25% of WWID recruited in drug treatment centers experienced sexual violence from police, and that experience was associated with six times increased odds of inconsistent condom use in the past 12 months [61 ▪▪ ].…”

Purpose of reviewThis review provides a summary of recently published research on sexually transmitted infections (STI) and related behaviors among people who inject drugs (PWID), covering three major areas: sexual behavior and its role in STI transmission among PWID, multilevel factors associated with STI risk, and strategies addressing sexual health of PWID. This review is timely given the growing priority of combination prevention approaches and integrated care for PWID. Recent findingsModern research improves the understanding that PWID have an increased risk of STI, which varies by gender, setting, type of substance used, and presence of mental disorders. Major socioeconomic and structural factors, specific and nonspecific to PWID, facilitate inequality and sexual risk behavior. Sexual transmission continues to contribute substantially to the spread of bloodborne infections among PWID, accounting for at least 10% of new HIV cases according to epidemiological modeling. Despite the substantial evidence that behavioral interventions can improve sexual health and reduce sex-related risks among PWID, there is a research-practice gap, reflected in the scarcity of implementation studies published recently.

“…Only one study targeted youth on remand (Busari & Ojo, 2011), while the others refer to interventions targeting adult respondents. Regarding the study designs, three were randomized control studies (RCT; Amoke et al, 2020;Johnson et al, 2020;Johnson et al, 2017;Mitchell et al, 2021), while the others were non-randomized quantitative studies.…”

“…Two of the for pharmacological interventions included a control group (i.e., a group in treatment as usual) (Mitchell et al, 2021;Schwartz et al, 2020). Both studies conducted compare three conditions: a) group with methadone maintenance without counseling, b) group with methadone maintenance plus counseling, and c) group in treatment as usual that consisted of brief medically supervised withdrawal using methadone.…”

Background/Aim: Official data show that nearly three million people are awaiting trial in prison. Despite this group representativeness, few interventions have been developed and assessed for these prisoners, even though literature has been showing that they present specific vulnerabilities. Nevertheless, no previous literature review had covered this topic. Considering this, the present review aims to gather evidence on the programs focused on this population, analyzing their intervention targets and their effectiveness. Method: The search identified a total of 7,143 studies. After removing the duplicates, 2,199 were screened using the title and abstract, according to the inclusion criteria. The full-text screening comprehended 45 articles, of which 37 were excluded. This resulted in 8 studies for inclusion in the final analysis, of which four were pharmacological studies. Results: Overall, meta-analysis results exhibited that treatment of remand prisoners (RPs) has an extraordinarily large positive effects, exceeding 92%. Our study confirmed that RPs would benefit from treatment, and therefore intervention programs should be established. Conclusions: Besides, our findings underlined the scarce resources to address the difficulties of the remand population, reinforcing the importance of assessing these individuals' needs to develop effective responses to them.

Background: The overlap between justice system involvement and drug use is welldocumented. Justice-involved people who misuse opioids are at high risk for relapse and criminal recidivism. Criminal justice policymakers consider opioid-specific medication-assisted therapies (MATs) one approach for improving outcomes for this population. More research is needed that explores the impacts of opioid-specific MATs for justice-involved people.Objectives: This study sought to assess the effects of opioid-specific MAT for reducing the frequency and likelihood of criminal justice and overdose outcomes for current or formerly justice-involved individuals.
