This cross-sectional study involved 737 FSWs and was carried out from March to May 2006 with confidential interviews and laboratory tests for HSV-2 and other sexually transmitted infections (STI). HSV-2 was the most common STI (68%), followed by Chlamydia trachomatis (26%), Trichomonas vaginalis (11%), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (8%) and syphilis (7%). Prevalence of HIV-1 was 10.3%. Adjusted odds ratios of HSV-2 seroprevalence were 2.6 (95% CI [confidence interval]: 1.30-5.38) for HIV-1 infection, 2.0 (95% CI: 1.33-3.16) for vaginal douching, 2.0 (95% CI: 0.45-0.86) for condom breaking or falling off during sexual intercourse with the client in the previous week, 1.8 (95% CI: 1.07-3.18) for \u22655 years of commercial sex work, 1.6 (95% CI: 1.08-2.33) for \u22655 clients in the previous week, 0.6 (95% CI: 0.45-0.86) for \u22659 years of education. This study identifies a very high prevalence of HSV-2 infections among FSWs in Yunnan Province, with only a few who reported a prior history of genital herpes. HSV-2 serological screening and suppressive therapy should be considered for study populations. Education on the importance of diagnosis, treatment and prevention may help control the spread of HSV-2 infection. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2008.008013","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,8,25]],"date-time":"2008-08-25T19:13:16Z","timestamp":1219691596000},"page":"635-639","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":32,"title":["Prevalence and predictors of herpes simplex virus type 2 infection among female sex workers in Yunnan Province, China"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Haibo","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for AIDS\/STD Prevention and Control, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 27 Nanwei Road, Beijing 100050, Peoples Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ning","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for AIDS\/STD Prevention and Control, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 27 Nanwei Road, Beijing 100050, Peoples Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ray Y","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of AIDS, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gerald B","family":"Sharp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of AIDS, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yanling","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of AIDS, Yunnan Center for Disease Control and Prevention"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Guixiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kaiyuan Center for Disease Control and Prevention, Kaiyuan, Yunnan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Guowei","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Center for AIDS\/STD Prevention and Control, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, 27 Nanwei Road, Beijing 100050, Peoples Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhenglai","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Epidemiology, Peking Union Medical College, Changping District, Beijing, Peoples Republic of China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-ijsa.2008.008013","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/368357"},{"key":"bibr2-ijsa.2008.008013","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0891-5520(05)70408-6"},{"key":"bibr3-ijsa.2008.008013","unstructured":"State Council AIDS Working Committee Office\/UNTG on HIV\/AIDS in China.
