Young people’s perceptions of smartphone-enabled self-testing and online care for sexually transmitted infections
Remote STI self-testing and online care appealed to these young people. It addressed barriers they associated with conventional STI services, thus may benefit public health through earlier detection and treatment. Our findings underpin development of online care pathways, as part of ongoing research to create this complex e-health intervention
Examining the potential public health benefit of offering STI testing to men in amateur football clubs
Relative to young men in the general population, football club members who completed the SPORTSMART survey reported greater sexual risk behaviour but similar STI/HIV risk perception and STI testing history.

Estimating the Likely Public Health Impact of Partner Notification for a Clinical Service
Objectives. We present the first evidence-based method for estimating public health and cost impacts of partner notification (PN) that takes account of sexual partnership type. Methods. Our algorithm uses routine clinical data, probability survey data, and transmission parameters. We propose 2 new epidemiological concepts to quantify PN impact: “[the] absolute reduction in onward transmission” and its reciprocal, “[the] number needed to treat to …
Sex and sexuality in the Shenzhen tongzhi circle
The paper explores the HIV risk context of migrant men who have sex with men, or tongzhi, in Shenzhen, China.

Male sex work has proliferated in Sh…

Joint‐working between health, education, voluntary sectors and parents has been heralded as key in redressing inequalities in sexual health outcomes and access to information. Our study foc…
