男男性行为者(MSM)占美国艾滋病毒携带者的近一半。这一流行病在这一人群中的流行使得了解感染的传播并制定防止其传播的方法至关重要。目前的研究使用纵向日记的方法，在158名HIV阳性的MSM样本中检查物质使用和无保护的肛交之间的关系，其中大部分是少数民族。结果表明，一般药物的使用和特定药物(即吸入剂、可卡因、可卡因和俱乐部药物)的使用对该人群的性危险行为都有实质性的影响。
Men who have sex with men (MSM) make up nearly half of all people living with HIV in the United States. The prevalence of the epidemic in this population makes it vitally important to understand the transmission of the infection and to develop methods to prevent its spread. The current study uses longitudinal diary methods to examine relationships between substance use and unprotected anal intercourse in a sample of 158 HIV-positive, mostly ethnic minority MSM. Results indicate that both general substance use and use of specific drugs (i.e., inhalants, cocaine, crack, and club drugs) have a substantial impact on the sexual risk behavior of this population.
