Materials were piloted in five cities\u2019 infectious disease or MSM clinics. Self- and partner-examination behaviour was assessed with an anonymous questionnaire. Of 1459 participants, 914 men had had sex with a man in the previous three months; the 171 MSM who reported having read the materials were significantly more likely to examine themselves (anus, adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR] 1.3, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.15-1.52), mouth, penis and skin, and their partners\u2019 anus (aPR 1.3, 95% CI 1.03-1.73) and mouth (aPR 1.6, 95% CI 1.1-2.26). Further research is needed to determine whether educational materials affect early detection and treatment of primary and secondary syphilis and reduce transmission. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2012.012016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,13]],"date-time":"2013-04-13T00:45:02Z","timestamp":1365813902000},"page":"859-861","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Examining self and partners for syphilis among men who have sex with men: five US cities, 2009-2011"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"D","family":"Surie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"B W","family":"Furness","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"},{"name":"HIV\/AIDS, Hepatitis, STD & TB Administration, District of Columbia Department of Health, Washington, DC"},{"name":"FIT Health Care Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P","family":"Hernandez-Kline","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FIT Health Care Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A","family":"Turner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Broward County Health Department, Ft Lauderdale, FL"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R C","family":"Perkins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"WhitmanWalker-GMHW Clinic, Washington, DC"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M M","family":"Taylor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"},{"name":"FIT Health Care Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T","family":"Brewer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"},{"name":"Broward County Health Department, Ft Lauderdale, FL"},{"name":"CDC\/Miami-Dade County Health Department, Miami, FL"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K","family":"Workowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"},{"name":"Emory University, Atlanta, GA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"K","family":"Gamerdinger","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"FIT Health Care Clinic, Phoenix, Arizona"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L E","family":"Markowitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"E H","family":"Koumans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of STD Prevention, National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention, CDC, Atlanta, GA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,12,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-ijsa.2012.012016","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.olq.0000180455.79024.e9"},{"volume-title":"Sexually Transmitted Diseases Surveillance 2009.","year":"2010","author":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.","key":"bibr2-ijsa.2012.012016"},{"key":"bibr3-ijsa.2012.012016","first-page":"12","volume":"59","author":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.","year":"2010","journal-title":"MMWR"},{"key":"bibr4-ijsa.2012.012016","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/QAI.0b013e3181e13ed9"},{"key":"bibr5-ijsa.2012.012016","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.olq.0000180461.30725.f4"},{"key":"bibr6-ijsa.2012.012016","unstructured":"Peterman TA.
