The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of gender- and culture-specific behavioural interventions and interactive STI counselling for high-risk minority women with a history of physical or sexual abuse over two years. African- and Mexican-American women with a non-viral STI were enrolled in a randomized trial. Follow-up screens and interviews occurred at six months and one and two years. The primary outcome was subsequent infection with chlamydia and\/or gonorrhoea. Secondary analysis of primary outcomes was made by self-reported physical or sexual abuse. Logistic regression was utilized on an intention-to-treat basis. Baseline data from 853 women were included; the retention rate was 91%. Infection rates were higher in abused women in Year 1 (29% vs. 23.8%, P=0.12), Year 2 (23.4% vs.17.6%, P=0.03) and cumulatively (43.8% vs. 33.0%, P=0.003). Unadjusted association between abuse and reinfection was stronger for adolescents (&lt;19 years) than adults in Year 1 (42.7% vs. 30.8%, P=0.03), Year 2 (32.7% vs. 22.0%, P=0.03) and cumulatively (59.4% vs. 43.3%, P=0.004). Corresponding rates for adults were Year 1 (17.8% vs. 17.0%, P=0.84), Year 2 (17.4% vs. 12.7%, P=0.23) and cumulatively (30.7% vs. 22.3%, P=0.08). Reinfection rates were further stratified by adolescence and substance use. Abused adolescents had consistently higher reinfection than non-abused adolescents and abused adults. In conclusion, risk-reduction interventions decreased infective episodes with chlamydia and\/or gonorrhoea in the two-year study period for non-abused women. Abused women, particularly adolescents and substance users, had increased episodes in these study periods. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/095646207782212180","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,10,15]],"date-time":"2007-10-15T00:05:33Z","timestamp":1192406733000},"page":"748-753","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Behavioural interventions and abuse: secondary analysis of reinfection in minority women"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Jane Dimmitt","family":"Champion","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Nursing Care, School of Nursing, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 7703 Floyd C Drive, San Antonio, TX 78230-3900, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rochelle N","family":"Shain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 7703 Floyd C Drive, San Antonio, TX 78230-3900, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeffrey E","family":"Korte","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, Bioinformatics and Epidemiology, Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Alan E C","family":"Holden","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 7703 Floyd C Drive, San Antonio, TX 78230-3900, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeanna M","family":"Piper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, 7703 Floyd C Drive, San Antonio, TX 78230-3900, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sondra T","family":"Perdue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Microbiology, The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fernando A","family":"Guerra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"San Antonio Metropolitan Health District, San Antonio, TX, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,1]]},"container-title":["International Journal of STD &amp; AIDS"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/095646207782212180","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/095646207782212180","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,28]],"date-time":"2025-02-28T15:58:25Z","timestamp":1740758305000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1258\/095646207782212180"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,1]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1258\/095646207782212180"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1258\/095646207782212180","relation":{},"ISSN":["0956-4624","1758-1052"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0956-4624","type":"print"},{"value":"1758-1052","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,1]]}}}
