Suitable populations to sustain continued evaluation of HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention interventions are required. We sought to determine whether fishermen are a suitable population for HIV intervention trials.<jats:italic>Methods<\/jats:italic>. In a cross-sectional descriptive survey, we selected 250 fishermen from proportional to size sampled boats. We collected socioeconomic and behavioral information, and specimens for HIV, herpes simplex virus (HSV-2), syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and human papillomavirus (HPV) tests from consenting participants.<jats:italic>Results<\/jats:italic>. One third of the fishermen had concurrent sexual partnerships and two thirds were involved in transactional sex. About 70% were involved in extramarital sex with only one quarter using condoms in their three most recent sexual encounters. HIV prevalence was 26% and HSV-2 and HPV was 57%. Over 98% were willing to participate in a future HIV prevention clinical trial.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Fishermen are a high-risk group for HIV\/STI infections that may be suitable for HIV prevention trials. A cohort study would be useful to measure the incidence of HIV\/STIs to ultimately determine the feasibility of enrolling this population in an HIV\/STI prevention clinical trial.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2010\/865903","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,7,18]],"date-time":"2010-07-18T10:37:20Z","timestamp":1279449440000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Fishermen as a Suitable Population for HIV Intervention Trials"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2010","author":[{"given":"Zachary A.","family":"Kwena","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Research Care and Treatment Program, Center for Microbiology Research, Kenya Medical Research Institute, Lumumba Health Center, P.O.
