■近年来,越来越多地使用与性有关的物质(称为“Chemsex”)来促进,加强,延长与男性发生性关系的男性的性经历。这种现象带来了公共卫生问题,增加性传播感染(STIs)和精神障碍的风险。
■这项研究的主要目的是深入研究物质使用与性健康之间的相关性,在西班牙Chemsex的背景下,特别检查所使用的不同物质与性传播感染(STIs)风险之间的关联。
■观测,描述性,描述性在2023年1月至4月期间对563名西班牙参与者进行了横断面研究.研究人员使用非概率目的抽样。研究人员对与使用物质的男性发生性关系的男性进行了问卷调查,尤其是在性领域,在西班牙的所有自治区。
■14.7%的人报告说在过去一年中曾练习过Slamsex,17.94%的患者在过去6个月内被诊断为性传播感染。其中,21%的人接受了PREP治疗,主要性传播感染是淋病(p<0.001),衣原体(p<0.001),生殖器疱疹(p=0.020),梅毒(p<0.001)。63.7%的人使用甲基苯丙胺作为化学性实践中的主要药物。
■西班牙的Chemsex与性传播感染的高患病率有关,尤其是淋病和衣原体,甚至在接受PrEP治疗的人群中。在化疗期间使用各种药物,如亚硝酸戊酯,GHB,摇头丸,和其他人,与更高的性传播感染发生率相关,强调需要采取干预措施来减少风险和伤害。与猛烈运动最相关的药物包括氯胺酮,甲氧麻黄酮,和甲基苯丙胺,强调解决与此活动相关的风险行为的重要性。
这项研究表明,在与男性发生性关系的男性中,化学性行为似乎与高患病率有关。在性环境中使用多种物质的人,并且特别暴露于性传播感染(STIs),这表明该组特别需要性传播感染的预防和护理。
UNASSIGNED: In recent years, there has been an increasing use of sex-related substances (known as \"Chemsex\") to facilitate, intensify, and prolong the sexual experience of men who have sex with men. This phenomenon poses a public health problem, increasing the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and mental disorders.
UNASSIGNED: The primary aim of this study was to delve into the correlation between substance use and sexual health, specifically examining the association between different substances used and the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the context of Chemsex in Spain.
UNASSIGNED: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted among 563 Spanish participants between January and April 2023. Non-probabilistic purposive sampling was used by the investigators. The researchers administered a questionnaire to men who have sex with men who use substances, especially in the sexual sphere, in all the autonomous communities of Spain.
UNASSIGNED: 14.7% reported having practiced slamsex in the last year, and 17.94% were diagnosed with a Sexually Transmitted Infection in the previous 6 months. Of these, 21% were on PREP treatment, with the main STIs being gonorrhea (p < 0.001), chlamydia (p < 0.001), genital herpes (p = 0.020), and syphilis (p < 0.001). The 63.7% used methamphetamines as the main drug in the practice of chemsex.
UNASSIGNED: Chemsex in Spain is linked to a high prevalence of STIs, especially gonorrhea and chlamydia, even among those on PrEP treatment. The use of various drugs during chemsex, such as amyl nitrite, GHB, ecstasy, and others, correlates with higher rates of STIs, highlighting the need for interventions to reduce risk and harm. The drugs most associated with slamsex include ketamine, mephedrone, and methamphetamine, underscoring the importance of addressing the risk behaviors associated with this activity.
UNASSIGNED: This study shows that chemsex appears to be associated with a high prevalence among men who have sex with men. Who use multiple substances in a sexual context, and are particularly exposed to sexually transmitted infections (STIs), indicating a particular need for STI prevention and care in this group.
