“…Among the 37 included studies that provided behavioral trend data between 1990 to 2013, 13 were conducted in the United States (21–33), nine in continental Europe (34–42), seven in Australia (43–49), five in the United Kingdom (50–54), two in New Zealand (55, 56), and one in Canada (57). Twenty-nine studies examined condomless anal sex (Table I), 16 examined condomless anal sex with a discordant or unknown HIV-status partner (Table II), and 16 examined number of partners (Table III).…”

“…The majority were repeated cross-sectional studies (n=26) while six were longitudinal cohorts (27, 34, 35, 42, 44, 57) and five were retrospective medical record analyses from STD clinics or emergency rooms (23, 36, 38, 47, 49). Most sampled MSM specifically, but two analyses were based on general population surveys (21, 50). Recall periods differed across studies and variables, but most common were past year, past six months, past three months, and last sex.…”

“…Among the 29 studies that examined condomless anal sex from 1990 to 2013 (21–28, 34–41, 43–47, 50–57), 19 findings were included in the analysis of condomless anal sex (Figure 2), 19 findings were included in the analysis of condomless anal sex with casual partners (Figure 3A), and 12 findings were included in the analysis of condomless anal sex with main partners (Figure 3B). Figure 2 showed an upward trend in condomless anal sex with any partners from 1990 to 2012 among most of the study samples.…”

HIV diagnoses among men who have sex with men (MSM) have been increasing in several high-income countries. A better understanding of the sexual behavior trends among MSM can be useful for informing HIV prevention. We conducted a systematic review of studies that examined behavioral trends (1990–2013) in any condomless anal sex, condomless anal sex with an HIV-discordant partner, and number of partners. Studies included come from the United States, Europe, and Australia. We found increasing trends in condomless anal sex and condomless anal sex with an HIV-discordant partner, and a decreasing trend in number of partners. The increase in condomless anal sex may help to explain the increase in HIV infections. More explanatory research is needed to provide insight into factors that contribute to these behavior trends. Continuous monitoring of HIV, risk behaviors, and use of prevention and treatment is needed to evaluate prevention efforts and monitor HIV transmission risk.

“…Recent national and cross-national surveys conducted among MSM in Europe, Asia, and the United States have provided data on the sexual health of MSM in these regions [5][6][7][8][9]. However, to date, there is limited data on the sexual behaviors and HIV and STI testing practices of MSM across countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, and the field lacks an understanding of how the behavioral profiles of MSM in this region compare to those of MSM in other parts of the world, including the Iberian countries that colonized Latin America.…”

There is limited data on the sexual health of users of sexual networking websites for men who have sex with men (MSM) in Latin America. Members of a MSM-targeted social/sexual networking website in Latin America, Spain, and Portugal participated in an online sexual health survey. Among 36,063 respondents, nearly 90 % reported having anal or vaginal intercourse in the past 3 months. Among sexually active men, 53.2 % used condoms inconsistently. In the past year, 54 % of respondents reported undergoing sexually transmitted infections (STI) testing and 67 % reported testing yearly or more often for HIV. Self-reported HIV prevalence was 9.1 %. Differences were seen by geographic region. Unprotected intercourse with partners of different or unknown HIV status was associated with recent STI diagnosis (OR = 1.83, t = 13.15, d.f. = 21, p < .001) and HIV diagnosis (OR = 2.20, t = 14.00, d.f. = 21, p < .001). Online surveys are a promising tool for HIV/STI surveillance and prevention internationally to reach an important subset of MSM.

“…Between 2008 and 2010, new diagnoses grew among MSM by 12% (5). At the same time, rates of transmission risk behaviors (6, 7) and sexually transmitted infections (8, 9) have increased, further demonstrating the need to focus prevention efforts on this population.…”

Positive Choices: Outcomes of a Brief Risk Reduction Intervention for Newly HIV-Diagnosed Men Who Have Sex with Men

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Positive Choices (PC), a brief sexual risk reduction intervention conducted with newly HIV-diagnosed men who have sex with men (MSM), was evaluated for preliminary efficacy. Participants were enrolled if they reported unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) in the three months prior to HIV diagnosis (n=102). Three months after diagnosis, participants completed baseline assessments and were randomly assigned to receive the 3-session PC intervention or the comprehensive standard of care (C-SoC) at a community health center. Participants completed assessments at 3-(post intervention), 6-, and 9-months after baseline. Compared to C-SoC participants, PC participants significantly reduced the frequency of UAI with HIV serodiscordant (HIV negative or status unknown) partners over the 9-month follow-up period. No differences by condition were found in the frequency of UAI with all partners. The findings from this trial suggest that brief risk reduction approaches for newly-diagnosed MSM integrated into HIV care can benefit secondary HIV prevention efforts.
