HIV risk among men who have sex with men who have experienced childhood sexual abuse: systematic review and meta-analysis.

چکیده
Previous research has indicated a high prevalence of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) among men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States, and has suggested that CSA history is a risk factor for HIV infection in MSM. We conducted a systematic review to identify, synthesize, meta-analyze, and critique the current state of relevant literature. Systematic review methodology was utilized to identify 12 studies that compared MSM with a history of CSA to MSM without a history of CSA on HIV risk indicators including HIV serostatus, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sexual behaviors, and illicit drug use. Overall, 27.3% (n = 4,263) of the MSM in all included studies (n = 15,622) reported a CSA history. Across the studies that used probabilistic sampling (n = 8,240), the estimated prevalence of CSA was 21.8% (n = 1,800). Meta-analysis indicated that MSM with CSA history were more likely to be HIV positive [odds ratio (OR) = 1.54; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.22-1.95)] and to engage in recent unprotected anal intercourse (OR = 1.85, 95% CI = 1.36-2.51). Studies also indicated that MSM with a history of CSA were more likely to report frequent casual male partners, substance use, and sex while under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Trends across studies indicated a need for interventions to assess CSA history and address effects of CSA on sexual risk behavior of MSM. Inconsistencies across studies indicated a need to reach consensus among researchers and providers in defining CSA.

متن کاملChildhood sexual abuse and sexual transmission risk behaviour among HIV-positive men who have sex with men.
Previous studies have indicated an association between childhood sexual abuse (CSA) and adult sexual risk behaviour among women and among men who have sex with men (MSM). However, no studies to date have tested the hypothesis that a history of CSA predicts sexual behaviour carrying risk of transmission of HIV to others, i.e. in a known HIV-positive cohort. The present study tested this hypothes...
