Can platform use patterns be an indicator of HIV-related risk and sub-group heterogeneity among men who have sex with men in Singapore
Introduction Low-level HIV epidemic settings like Singapore face the challenge of reaching men at-risk who have less contact with programmes. We investigated patterns of meeting platform use by men seeking male sexual partners (MSM) as potential marker of risk to differentiate sub-groups for interventions. Methods Latent Class Analysis (LCA) was applied to a survey sample of MSM recruited from bars/clubs, saunas and a smartphone application, usin…

Background The criminalization of sexual relations between men has stifled the development of social spaces and placed emphasis on sexual capital for gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (GBTQ) men in Singapore. This study aims to investigate the factors associated with body image dissatisfaction, and its link to health outcomes for young GBTQ men
