We cultured the pharynx of 264 asymptomatic HIV-positive MSM in downtown Madrid. A questionnaire on sexual and drug use risk behaviours was also administered. Gonococci were isolated in 25 (9.5%). Among the whole study population, 65% had a history of sexual intercourse with two or more partners on a single day and 26% were involved in group sex with other men. Only 29% regularly used condoms in all sexual encounters and 63% used condoms only in insertive anal intercourse. When asked about oral sex, 89% of patients engaged in insertive and\/or receptive oral sex and 86% recognized that they did not regularly request the use of condoms when practising \u201c fellatio\u201d on a partner. Cocaine, crystal methamphetamine or alcohol use and a previous history of \u22651 sexually transmitted infection were significantly more common among culture-positive patients. Gonococcal colonization of the pharynx was self-limited in patients that were not treated and re-cultured a mean 18.5\u2009\u00b1\u20095.2 days after diagnosis. Asymptomatic pharyngeal gonorrhoea is common among HIV-positive MSM and may contribute to the increasing epidemic of gonorrhoea in Madrid.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0956462413486455","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,19]],"date-time":"2013-07-19T23:12:27Z","timestamp":1374275547000},"page":"875-878","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Prevalence of pharyngeal infection by\n                    <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae<\/i>\n                    among human immunodeficiency virus-positive men who have sex with men in downtown Madrid, 2011"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Esther","family":"Jim\u00e9nez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mar\u00eda Garc\u00eda","family":"Pedrazuela","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marta Mart\u00ednez","family":"P\u00e9rez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sol Fern\u00e1ndez","family":"de Mosteyr\u00edn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juan J","family":"Arrieta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Manuel L Fern\u00e1ndez","family":"Guerrero","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases (Department of Internal Medicine) and the Services of Clinical Microbiology and Dentistry, Fundaci\u00f3n Jim\u00e9nez D\u00edaz, Universidad Aut\u00f3noma de Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2807\/ese.14.47.19417-en"},{"key":"bibr2-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/644618"},{"key":"bibr3-0956462413486455","volume-title":"Vigilancia epidemiol\u00f3gica de las infecciones de transmisi\u00f3n sexual, 1995\u20132009","author":"Centro Nacional de Epidemiolog\u00eda","year":"2011"},{"key":"bibr4-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2807\/ese.14.48.19426-en"},{"key":"bibr5-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2807\/ese.14.47.19415-en"},{"key":"bibr6-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/sti.2006.021329"},{"key":"bibr7-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/430704"},{"key":"bibr8-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/apc.2008.0277"},{"key":"bibr9-0956462413486455","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/508460"},{"key":"bibr10-0956462413486455","first-page":"559","volume-title":"Manual of clinical microbiology","author":"Elias J","year":"2010","edition":"10"},{"key":"bibr11-0956462413486455","volume-title":"Performance standards for antimicrobial susceptibility testing. seventeenth informational supplement","author":"Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI)","year":"2007"},{"key":"bibr12-0956462413486455","unstructured":"European Committee on Antimicrobial Testing.
