为了解青年男同性恋和男双性恋者的甲型肝炎感染情况，在弗朗西斯科和伯克利的26个公共场所调查了411名17-22岁的男性，甲型肝炎血清阳性率为28.0%（95%可信区间[CI]，23.7%~ 32.6%）。3.3%的易感男性近期感染明显（95% CI，1.6%-5.9%）。甲型肝炎感染的独立预测因子是拉丁裔（比值比[OR] = 5.3; 95% CI，3.1-8.9），终身男性性伴侣≥ 50名（OR = 1.8; 95%CI，1.1-3.0），高中以下（OR = 2.2; 95%CI，1.2-4.1），高中毕业（OR = 1.7; 95%CI，1.0-2.9），近期感染的独立预测因子小于高中毕业生（OR = 7.6; 95% CI，1.9-30.5）、插入肛交（OR = 5.6; 95% CI，1.0-32.8）、共用针头不清洗（OR = 32.1; 95% CI，3.0 ~ 346）。甲型肝炎是一种常见的感染，在年轻的同性恋男子，并与性和吸毒行为。
To evaluate hepatitis A infection among young homosexual and bisexual men, 411 men aged 17-22 years were surveyed at 26 public venues in San Francisco and Berkeley, Seroprevalence of hepatitis A infection was 28.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 23.7%-32.6%). Recent infection was evident in 3.3% of susceptible men (95% CI, 1.6%-5.9%). Independent predictors of hepatitis A infection were Latino ethnicity (odds ratio [OR] = 5.3; 95% CI, 3.1-8.9), having greater than or equal to 50 lifetime male sex partners (OR = 1.8; 95% CI, 1.1-3.0), less than high school education (OR = 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2-4.1), and being a high school graduate (OR = 1.7; 95% CI, 1.0-2.9), Independent predictors of recent infection were less than high school graduate (OR = 7.6; 95% CI, 1.9-30.5), insertive anal intercourse (OR = 5.6; 95% CI, 1.0-32.8), and sharing needles without cleaning them (OR = 32.1; 95% CI, 3.0-346). Hepatitis A is a common infection in young homosexual men and is associated with sexual and drug-using behaviors.
