Newer point-of-care tests for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) have become increasingly available since the COVID-19 pandemic. Little is known regarding the use of these tests in clinical practice as well as the potential challenges of integrating them into care. Survey data from individuals attending an international STI conference is presented, highlighting practice trends and barriers to implementation.

It is important to engage culturally and linguistically diverse sex industry workers with sexual health care. A large sexual health service has piloted the implementation of WeChat and LINE digital platforms to enhance outreach to Thai- and Chinese-speaking sex industry workers operating in inner-city Sydney. Results indicated that the platforms are both effective in reaching new clients and are utilised by existing sex industry worker clients of the sexual health service for service navigation and booking appointments.

Studies have shown that adolescents and young adults in Turkey face various difficulties in sexual and reproductive health. It has been observed that there is a need for a scale to assess the sexual and reproductive health empowerment of adolescents and young adults in Turkey. This study found that the Sexual and Reproductive Health Empowerment Scale for Adolescents and Young Adults is a valid and highly reliable instrument for the Turkish population.

, Matthew Kusen, Felicity Young, Mike Merrigan and Jason J. Ong
Middle-income countries that are transitioning away from external donor funding for HIV services targetting key populations need to have policies in place and domestic resources allocated to continue providing the services sustainably without disruption. We analyzed and presented the findings from the surveys and key informant interviews of diverse stakeholders to understand barriers to domestic funding for key population–led HIV programming in four selected countries (Bhutan, Mongolia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka) in Asia that are scheduled for transition.

SH24093Barriers and facilitators to accessing sexual health services among middle-aged and older adults in the UK, including those with disabilities: a qualitative analysis

, Suzanne Day, Dan Wu , Fern Terris-Prestholt , Joseph D. Tucker and Eneyi E. Kpokiri
Despite evidence that many middle-aged and older adults in the UK remain sexually active, their access to and uptake of sexual health services has been underestimated. Our exploration of their lived experiences revealed physical barriers and the stigma around their sexual health and of being perceived as asexual by health professionals. To improve service provision and access, a multi-faceted approach is needed, including enhanced training for healthcare providers, further research, and supportive policies.

PrEP uptake remains low among MSM in mainland China and Hong Kong. This study found that oral PrEP was most preferred, with MSM in mainland China more likely to use on-demand PrEP, whereas MSM in Hong Kong were more likely to use monthly oral PrEP. These findings highlight the need for specific strategies to improve PrEP uptake and address local social and behavioural influences on HIV prevention.

Using doxycycline after exposure (doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis) can prevent men who have sex with men from contracting STIs. A study in Taiwan found that these men were open to using doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis, especially when they felt that they might be at risk of STIs. It is important to understand their readiness to identify behaviors that increase the chances of contracting or transmitting STIs, and to offer education and support to help them use doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis effectively.

SH24195A comparative analysis of abortion care and outcomes post-decriminalisation in a public sexual health clinic in Queensland, Australia
Alexandra Christina Drew
Since Queensland’s decriminalisation of abortion in 2018, societal views have shifted, seeing abortion as a healthcare standard rather than a crime. However, most abortions are still privately funded in Australia. Cairns Sexual Health Service, a public provider, offers affordable, timely abortions without a GP referral. This paper examines clinical practice from 2019 to 2023, detailing the demographics and outcomes of those accessing the service. It also compares these results to a 2011–2015 review, prior to decriminalisation.

STIs remain a key concern in the context of HIV biomedical prevention. In a study of 343 male HIV-serodiscordant couples in Australia, Brazil and Thailand, we found higher rates of STI diagnosis for HIV-positive partners compared with their HIV-negative regular partners, and couples were typically not diagnosed with an STI together. HIV transmission risk has been eliminated for HIV-serodiscordant couples where the HIV-positive partner has a supressed viral load; however, other STIs continue to be diagnosed.

This study highlights the importance of community involvement in HIV research, particularly among marginalized groups, such as young gay, bisexual, and queer men in Singapore and Malaysia. A collaborative project between the National University of Singapore and a local organization, RainbowAsia, used a citizen-led approach to overcome funding challenges and stigma. The research focused on issues, such as mental health and relationships, relying on community resources and volunteers. The proposed framework includes eight phases for effective collaboration, aiming to transform research into impactful community programs.

This Collection includes papers on rising rates of specific STIs in MSM, possible explanations for the rises, ways to improve surveillance and ways to prevent STIs. It also highlights a number of key papers relating to HPV-associated malignancies and potential approaches to reducing these. Fortunately for young MSM, at least Australia’s national childhood HPV vaccination program will prevent virtually all HPV-related malignancies.
