Routine and event-driven HIV testing among MSM in Chongqing, China
HIV testing is critical for prevention and treatment among men who have sex with men (MSM). This study applied an extended Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills (IMB) framework to examine HIV testing strategies among Chinese MSM, with anxiety acting as both a direct predictor and a moderator. A cross-sectional survey was conduted among 431 MSM recruited from venues and community-based organizations in Chongqing, China, from June to September 2…
Prevalence of HIV self-testing and associated factors among men who have sex with men in Chongqing, China
Background HIV self-testing has been promoted globally as an effective complement to facility-based testing, particularly among men who have sex with men (MSM). However, evidence on HIV self-testing uptake and its determinants in western China remains limited. Objective To assess the prevalence of HIV self-testing and identify associated factors among MSM in Chongqing, China. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2021 to March …
Evaluating the effectiveness of different intervention measures for a dengue outbreak in Hangzhou based on a dynamic model
For dengue control in high-density urban areas, we suggested a three-tiered synergistic prevention system: a foundation tier of strict case isolation coupled with intelligent monitoring and early-warning systems; a core tier of sustained high-intensity mosquito control to rapidly suppress vector density during the early epidemic stage; and an optimization tier integrated pulsed mosquito control, health education, and case isolation, thereby addre…
Molecular network characteristics and drug resistance analysis of 392 newly reported MSM HIV/Aids cases in Chongqing, China
To comprehensively investigate the molecular transmission patterns of HIV-1 genotypes among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Chongqing, we employed 392 pol sequences of MSM to construct a phylogenetic tree and gene transmission network. Among the viral subtypes, CRF07_BC accounted for 73.2% (287/392) and CRF01_AE accounted for 20.7% (81/392), emerging as the predominant subtypes in this investigation. Additionally, we observed the presence of C…
Trends of HIV, hepatitis C virus and syphilis seroprevalence among injection and non-injection drug users in southwestern China, 2010–2017
Background The primary risk of HIV transmission in China has shifted from injecting drug use (IDU) to sexual contact since 2006. We evaluated the prevalence trends of HIV, hepatitis C virus (HCV), syphilis, and sexual and drug use behaviors among drug users. Methods: People who use drugs participated in any of four rounds of cross-sectional surveys during 2010–2017 in Chongqing. Participants were tested for HIV, HCV, and syphilis. Questionnaire i…
Recent and Local HIV Infections among Newly Diagnosed Cases in Two Districts of Chongqing, China (2019–2021)
Newly diagnosed HIV cases often do not clearly indicate whether they are recent or long-standing infections. We collected the history of HIV antibody testing, sexual behavior and initial CD4 + T cell (CD4) count of newly diagnosed HIV/AIDS to determine the time and location of HIV infections. Of the included 612 cases, 17.3% were classified as recent HIV infection. Recent HIV infections were higher in cases aged < 30 (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = …
Establishment and application value of a novel prescription medication abuse monitoring model for psychiatric hospitals
The combined PMA monitoring model can effectively improve the quality of PMA monitoring and provide a basis for the supervision of higher-level regulatory authorities
Practice of pharmaceutical services and prescription analysis in internet-based psychiatric hospitals during Covid-19 pandemic in Wuxi, China
The practice of pharmaceutical services and prescription analysis in internet-based psychiatric hospitals could significantly improve medication rationality, which fills the research gap in this field. In addition, it promotes the transformation of pharmaceutical service models
Higher Risk of Mortality and Virologic Failure in HIV-Infected Patients With High Viral Load at Antiretroviral Therapy Initiation
BACKGROUND: Viral load (VL) is a strong predictor of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease progression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of high baseline VL on antiretroviral therapy (ART) outcomes among HIV-infected patients. METHODS: This retrospective study observed HIV-infected patients who had baseline VL test at ART initiation between 2015 and 2019 in Chongqing, China. Cox proportional hazards regression and logistic re…
Condom Use and Related Factors among Rural and Urban Men Who Have Sex With Men in Western China
This study aimed to determine the differences in condom use and related factors among rural–urban men who have sex with men (MSM) in Western China. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Chongqing, Sichuan, and Guangxi, which recruited MSM by non-probability sampling. Data were collected through an anonymous, standardized, and self-reported questionnaire guided by an information–motivation–behavioral skills model. Structural equation model was…
Changing Trends of HIV, Syphilis, and Hepatitis C among Male Migrant Workers in Chongqing, China
An upward trend of HIV and a downward trend of HCV were observed among MMWs in Chongqing from 2010 to 2018. We also found an increase in commercial sex and inadequate condom use during high-risk behaviors among this population. The overall syphilis prevalence in the middle-aged and elderly groups was higher than in the young group, and elderly MMWs were more likely to engage in unprotected high-risk behaviors. Thus, targeted STI prevention for MM…
Facilitators and Barriers Associated with Uptake of HIV Self-Testing among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Chongqing, China
While studies on human immunodeficiency virus self-testing (HIVST) continue to accumulate after the World Health Organization's recommendation of HIVST as an additional approach to HIV testing services in 2016, few studies have focused on men who have sex with men (MSM) in Chinese cities. A cross-sectional study was conducted to describe the HIVST status of MSM in Chongqing, China. MSM participants were recruited by random sampling, and qualified…
What has changed HIV and syphilis infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Southwest China
A decreasing trend of HIV prevalence was showed during among MSM from 2013 to 2017 in Chongqing. While gradual reduction of high-risk behaviors along with HIV prevalence supported development of STI counselling and testing, increasing syphilis infection and drug use during anal intercourse warrants further understanding
Investigating HIV Infection and HIV Incidence Among Chinese Men Who Have Sex with Men with Recent Sexual Debut, Chongqing, China, 2011
HIV risk perception among men who have sex with men in two municipalities of China-implications for education and intervention
Men who have sex with men (MSM) are recognized as being at high risk for HIV infection. While studies have found that the prevalence of risky behaviors routinely remained high among MSM, few have focused on reasons why MSM may perceive they were or were not at risk for HIV infection. The objective of this study was to examine HIV risk perception among MSM in Beijing and Chongqing, China. A qualitative study consisting of eight focus group discuss…

Anal Sex Role, Circumcision Status, and HIV Infection Among Men Who Have Sex with Men in Chongqing, China
Participation of HIV prevention programs among men who have sex with men in two cities of China—a mixed method study
The study shows that there is much room for improvement in reaching MSM in China. HIV prevention programs targeting MSM in China may need to be more comprehensive and incorporate the cultural, logistic and HIV-related needs of the population in order to effectively reach and affect this population's risk for HIV
