Study participants, 14-25 years old (average 20.9 years), meeting specific criteria for homelessness, were recruited in street youth agencies. Participation included a structured interview and provision of a urine specimen. Among sexually active youth, ( n = 300) 30.0% had more than five heterosexual partners and 13.0% had at least one homosexual partner (last year), 10.7% had received money in exchange for sex (last six months) and 47.0% reported sexual relations resulting in pregnancy (lifetime). Among all youths, 82.1% had used at least one type of illicit drug, and 30.1% injected drugs at least once (last six months). The prevalence of C. trachomatis infection was 6.6% (95% CI 4.1-10.0%). Prevalence did not vary significantly by sex, age or any other variable, except history of pregnancy (10.4% among youth with history of pregnancy vs 3.6% among others, P = 0.02). No cases of N. gonorrhoeae infection were found. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/0956462021925036","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,10,16]],"date-time":"2002-10-16T09:48:30Z","timestamp":1034761710000},"page":"238-245","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Risk behaviours and prevalence of <i>Chlamydia trachomatis<\/i>                and <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae<\/i> genital infections among Montreal street                youth"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"N","family":"Haley","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department; Sainte-Justine Hospital,\r                  Montreal and McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"\u00c9","family":"Roy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department and McGill University,\r                  Montreal, Quebec, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P","family":"Leclerc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department, Montreal, Quebec,\r                  Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G","family":"Lambert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department, Montreal, Quebec,\r                  Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J F","family":"Boivin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department, Montreal, Quebec,\r                  Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L","family":"C\u00e9dras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Montreal Regional Public Health Department, Montreal, Quebec,\r                  Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Vincelette","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Saint-Luc Hospital, Montreal, Quebec, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2002,4,1]]},"container-title":["International Journal of STD &amp; AIDS"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/0956462021925036","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/0956462021925036","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,3]],"date-time":"2025-03-03T09:56:44Z","timestamp":1740995804000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1258\/0956462021925036"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2002,4,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2002,4,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1258\/0956462021925036"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1258\/0956462021925036","relation":{},"ISSN":["0956-4624","1758-1052"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0956-4624","type":"print"},{"value":"1758-1052","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2002,4,1]]}}}
