Men who have sex with men (MSM) who are incarcerated are at increased risk for HIV acquisition, yet there are challenges associated with disclosing sexual identity/orientation among people who are incarcerated.
The current study used semi-structured, qualitative interviews to explore attitudes and awareness of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among 26 MSM who were incarcerated at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections.
Participants noted variable levels of willingness to disclose sexual identity/orientation.
CJ institutions should consider involving medical staff and outside agencies when using the CDC PrEP guidelines or consider a WHO-based, rather than behavior-based, approach to determining candidacy for PrEP.
被监禁的男男性行为者（MSM）感染艾滋病毒的风险增加，但在被监禁者中披露性身份/性取向存在挑战。
本研究采用半结构化定性访谈，以探讨罗德岛惩教部关押的26名男男性行为者对暴露前预防（PrEP）的态度和认识。
参与者表示出不同程度的披露性身份/性取向的意愿。
惩教机构在使用疾病控制与预防中心的PrEP指南时应考虑让医务人员和外部机构参与，或考虑采用基于世界卫生组织的方法而非基于行为的方法来确定PrEP的适用对象。
