背景:在美国和世界各地的男男性行为者 (MSM) 中,药物使用与高风险性行为有关。旧金山当地组织最近专门针对这一人群的甲基苯丙胺使用情况进行了努力。方法:我们使用针对 MSM 的预防教育计划社区外展调查中提供的指标(n=4602),跟踪了 2003 年至 2006 年旧金山男男性行为者 (MSM) 中甲基苯丙胺和其他物质的使用情况。结果:总体而言,从 2003 年到 2006 年,各种物质的使用趋于减少,许多显着减少所以。据报告,HIV 阴性 MSM 中甲基苯丙胺的使用显着减少。然而,性行为过程中使用甲基苯丙胺和酒精与未受保护的潜在艾滋病毒血清不一致性行为有关。结论:旧金山加强预防工作以减少甲基苯丙胺的使用可能会产生一些影响;然而,药物滥用与高风险性行为之间的密切联系仍然存在。 (c) 2007 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. 保留所有权利。
Background: Substance use has been associated with high-risk sexual behavior among men who have sex with men (MSM) both in the U.S. and around the world. Recent efforts by local organizations in San Francisco have specifically targeted methamphetamine use in this population.Methods: We tracked methamphetamine and other substance use among men who have sex with men (MSM) in San Francisco from 2003 to 2006 using an indicator available in community outreach surveys of a prevention education program targeting MSM (n=4602).Results: Overall, use of diverse substances tended to decrease from 2003 to 2006, many significantly so. Reported use of methamphetamine significantly decreased among HIV-negative MSM. However, methamphetamine and alcohol use during sex was associated with unprotected potentially HIV serodiscordant sex.Conclusion: Intensified prevention efforts to reduce methamphetamine use in San Francisco may be having some impact; however, strong associations of substance use and high-risk sex persist.
