Few Aggressive or Violent Incidents are Associated with the Use of HIV Self-tests to Screen Sexual Partners Among Key Populations
Using an HIV Self-test Kit to Test a Partner
Transgender Women’s Experiences Using a Home HIV-Testing Kit for Partner-Testing
Use of Rapid HIV Self-Test to Screen Potential Sexual Partners
Limited Knowledge and Lack of Screening for Acute HIV Infection at Primary Care Clinics in High-Prevalence Communities of New York City
Use of HIV Self-Testing Kits to Screen Clients Among Transgender Female Sex Workers in New York and Puerto Rico
Decentralisation of Brazil’s HIV/Aids programme
Brazil's response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic was characterised by an innovative alliance of governmental and non-governmental actors inspired by a strong progressive tradition in public health. Brazil eventually moved to decentralise HIV/AIDS programmes to its states and cities, a policy endorsed and supported financially by the World Bank as consistent with the mix of public and private elements central to the country's HIV/AIDS strategy. However,…
Mixed-Method Evaluation of Social Media-Based Tools and Traditional Strategies to Recruit High-Risk and Hard-to-Reach Populations into an HIV Prevention Intervention Study
High Substance Use and HIV Risk Behavior Among Young Argentine Men Who Have Sex with Men
Lessons for Rectal Microbicide Development From an Acceptability Trial of a Placebo Gel Applied Prior to Receptive Anal Intercourse
Acceptability of Three Novel HIV Prevention Methods Among Young Male and Transgender Female Sex Workers in Puerto Rico
Fingerprick Versus Oral Swab
Influence of Partner Type on Acceptability and Likelihood of Use of a Rectal Microbicide Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men in the United States and Puerto Rico
This study examined how acceptability of placebo gel with receptive anal intercourse (RAI) and likelihood of future rectal microbicide use varied across partner types. Because no rectal microbicide is available yet, use of placebo permitted the study of gel use behavior in real-life circumstances. A total of 87 men who have sex with men (MSM) aged 18 to 30 years inserted placebo gel rectally before RAI during 12 weeks. Using mixed-methods design,…
Adherence to Rectal Gel Use Among Mainly Ethnic Minority Young Men Who have Sex with Men During A 3-Month Placebo Gel Trial
Anticipated and Actual Reactions to Receiving HIV Positive Results Through Self-Testing Among Gay and Bisexual Men
The Ethics of Barebacking
Recent compelling evidence that HIV medication may decrease the chances of HIV transmission and acquisition bring to light once again the issue of ethical responsibilities of those infected and uninfected when engaging in sexual intercourse. Using data collected in New York City from 120 gay men who engaged in “barebacking” (operationalized as intentional unprotected anal intercourse in an HIV-risk context), we analyzed participants’ attributions…
Attitude and Behavior Changes Among Gay and Bisexual Men After Use of Rapid Home HIV Tests to Screen Sexual Partners
The Impact of Rapid HIV Home Test Use with Sexual Partners on Subsequent Sexual Behavior Among Men Who have Sex with Men
Where to Go With Barebacking Research
We appreciate the careful reading by Mr. Shawn Chrisman of our article (Frasca, Ventuneac, Balan, & Carballo-Dieguez, 2012). Chrisman correctly notes that we found intentional pursuit of HIV infection (“bug chasing”) to be rare. In fact, among our sample of 120 sexually active men who reported barebacking with partners met via the Internet, not a single such case was reported
Use of a Rapid HIV Home Test Prevents HIV Exposure in a High Risk Sample of Men Who Have Sex With Men
The study assessed whether at-risk HIV-uninfected men who have sex with men (MSM) who never or rarely use condoms and have multiple partners would use a rapid, oral fluid, HIV home test (HT) to screen potential sexual partners. Participants received 16 HT kits, were monitored weekly for 3 months, and then interviewed in depth. Twenty-seven ethnically diverse MSM used HT kits before intercourse with approximately 100 partners in private and public…
Will Gay and Bisexually Active Men at High Risk of Infection Use Over-the-Counter Rapid HIV Tests to Screen Sexual Partners
The Food and Drug Administration may license OraQuickTM, a rapid HIV test, for over-the-counter (OTC) sale. This study investigated whether HIV-uninfected, non-monogamous, gay and bisexual men who never or rarely use condoms would use the test with partners as a harm-reduction approach. Sixty participants responded to two computer-assisted self-interviews, underwent an in-depth interview, and chose whether to test themselves with OraQuick. Over 8…
Inner Contradictions Among Men Who Bareback
Barebacking, or intentional unprotected anal intercourse when HIV transmission can occur, emerged as a descriptive term in the 1990s, and marked greater acceptance by gay and bisexual men of dispensing with condom use under certain circumstances. In an exploratory study of men who used Internet sites to meet partners and reported recent episodes of barebacking, respondents outlined numerous strategies they deployed to avoid HIV infection instead …
