This study investigated whether intact young Black MSM differed from their circumcised counterparts regarding condom use behaviors and perceptions and HIV/Chlamydia/gonorrhea. Young Black MSM completed a self-interview, including a pictorial item assessing circumcision status and measures of condom use. Twenty-seven percent of 388 participants reported not being circumcised. With one exception, no associations tested approached significance. The mean frequency of unprotected insertive anal sex for circumcised men was about twice as high compared to those intact (P = .04). Intact young Black MSM did not differ from circumcised men relative to prevalence of STIs (including HIV) or condom use behaviors as reported only by insertive partners.
本研究调查了未行环切术的年轻黑人男男性行为者在使用避孕套的行为和认知以及感染艾滋病毒/衣原体/淋病方面是否与行环切术的同龄人存在差异。年轻黑人男男性行为者完成了一次自我访谈,包括一项评估环切术状况的图片项目以及避孕套使用情况的测量。388名参与者中有27%报告未行环切术。除一个例外情况外,所测试的关联均未达到显著水平。行环切术男性的无保护插入式肛交平均频率约为未行环切术男性的两倍(P = 0.04)。在性传播感染(包括艾滋病毒)的患病率或仅由插入式性伴侣报告的避孕套使用行为方面,未行环切术的年轻黑人男男性行为者与行环切术的男性没有差异。
