2006年，我们在克罗地亚萨格勒布的男男性行为者（MSM）中采用了受调查者驱动的抽样方法，以调查艾滋病毒、其他性传播感染和性行为的流行情况。我们招募了360名MSM。艾滋病毒感染率为4.5%。病毒病原体抗体的血清阳性率为：单纯疱疹病毒2型，9.4%;甲型肝炎，14.2%;丙型肝炎，3.0%。80%的参与者易受HBV感染（HBs抗原阴性，无HBs和HBc抗原抗体）。梅毒血清阳性率为10.6%。衣原体和淋病的患病率分别为9.0%和13.2%。结果表明，需要采取干预措施，诊断、治疗和预防这一人群中的性传播感染。
We used respondent-driven sampling among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Zagreb, Croatia in 2006 to investigate the prevalence of HIV, other sexually transmitted infections and sexual behaviours. We recruited 360 MSM. HIV infection was diagnosed in 4.5%. The seroprevalence of antibodies to viral pathogens was: herpes simplex virus type-2, 9.4%; hepatitis A, 14.2%; hepatitis C, 3.0%. Eighty percent of participants were susceptible to HBV infection (HBs antigen negative, and no antibodies to HBs and HBc antigen). Syphilis seroprevalence was 10.6%. Prevalence of Chlamydia and gonorrhoea was 9.0%, and 13.2%, respectively. Results indicate the need for interventions to diagnose, treat and prevent sexually transmitted infections among this population.
