Eligible participants were males, aged \u226515\u2009years who reported having manual, oral, or anal sexual activity with males in the past year and lived, worked or socialized in HCMC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>HIV seroprevalence among MSM was 5.8% in 2006, 16.1% in 2009 and 12.1% in 2013 and prevalence of at least one STI (syphilis, gonorrhea and\/or chlamydia infection) was 11.4% in 2006 and 15.6% in 2009 (no data for 2013). Significant, but small, increasing trends were found for MSM who reported ever testing and receiving results for HIV and for HIV prevalence. No significant changes for condom use, injecting and non-injecting drug use, or and receipt of free condoms were observed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Although a small percentage of MSM reported injecting drugs, HIV was positively associated with ever injecting drugs. Programs targeting MSM should include screening and treatment for injection drug use to most effectively control the HIV\/AIDS epidemic among MSM in HCMC.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0956462420947555","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,1]],"date-time":"2020-10-01T00:55:07Z","timestamp":1601513707000},"page":"1247-1254","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Increasing HIV prevalence and injection drug use among men who have sex with men in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Nguyen Anh","family":"Tuan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lisa G","family":"Johnston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Family Health International 360, Durham, NC, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9160-0148","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Duong Cong","family":"Thanh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Linh-Vi N","family":"Le","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"World Health Organization, Western Pacific Region, Manila, Philippines"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tran Vu","family":"Hoang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Partners in Health, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tran Dai","family":"Quang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Preventive Medicine Division, Ministry of Health, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nguyen Cuong","family":"Quoc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Global Health Security, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Nadol","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nguyen Tran","family":"Hien","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology, Hanoi, Vietnam"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abu","family":"Abdul-Quader","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0956462420947555","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/3096941"},{"key":"bibr2-0956462420947555","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1525\/sp.2002.49.1.11"},{"key":"bibr3-0956462420947555","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10461-016-1346-5"},{"key":"bibr4-0956462420947555","unstructured":"Vietnam Administration of HIV\/AIDS Control.
