“…Of the 27 relevant studies, nine examined the association between drinking any alcohol and unprotected sex [27,41,[47][48][49][50][51][52][53], 15 examined the association between problematic drinking and unprotected sex [47,[52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65], and nine examined the association between alcohol consumption in sexual contexts and unprotected sex [23,40,48,49,51,[66][67][68][69]. Six studies examined the association between alcohol and unprotected sex using more than one alcohol consumption category.…”

Alcohol as a Correlate of Unprotected Sexual Behavior Among People Living with HIV/AIDS: Review and Meta-Analysis

et al. 2009

The present investigation attempted to quantify the relationship between alcohol consumption and unprotected sexual behavior among people living with HIV/ AIDS (PLWHA). A comprehensive search of the literature was performed to identify key studies on alcohol and sexual risk behavior among PLWHA, and three separate meta-analyses were conducted to examine associations between unprotected sex and (1) any alcohol consumption, (2) problematic drinking, and (3) alcohol use in sexual contexts. Based on 27 relevant studies, meta-analyses demonstrated that any alcohol consumption (OR = 1.63, CI = 1.39-1.91), problematic drinking (OR = 1.69, CI = 1.45-1.97), and alcohol use in sexual contexts (OR = 1.98, CI = 1.63-2.39) were all found to be significantly associated with unprotected sex among PLWHA. Taken together, these results suggest that there is a significant link between PLWHA's use of alcohol and their engagement in high-risk sexual behavior. These findings have implications for the development of interventions to reduce HIV transmission risk behavior in this population.

“…For example, victimization has been associated with increased medical disease, health care utilization, and substance use characteristics (Eisenman, Cunningham, Zierler, Nakazono, & Shapiro, 2003;Liebschutz, Feinman, Sullivan, Stein, & Samet, 2000). Additionally, sexual victimization has been associated with high-risk sexual behavior in HIV-infected persons (Bogart et al, 2005;Chuang, Liebschutz, Horton, & Samet, 2006). These findings further emphasize the need to better characterize violence against HIVinfected persons.…”

We used data from the HIV-Alcohol Longitudinal Cohort to determine the prevalence of substance use by victims and assailants during physical and sexual assault against HIV-infected persons, and to determine if the findings differed by gender. Of the sexually assaulted participants, 31% of victims and 70% of assailant(s) had used drugs/alcohol during sexual assault. Compared with men, women had higher odds of substance use during sexual assault (adjusted OR 3.8, 95% CI 1.6-8.7) and of substance use by their assailant(s) during sexual assault (adjusted OR 5.9, 95% CI 1.7-20.6) in adjusted analysis. Of the physically assaulted participants, 66% of victims and 85% of assailants used drugs/alcohol during physical assault; these results did not differ by gender.

“…IPV, which includes physical, sexual and emotional abuse within intimate relationships [3], is a major public health problem that has received substantial attention in the medical literature in the last decade. One form of IPV, physical violence, has been associated with the practice of unsafe sex, a primary component of which is lack of condom use [4,5]. The present study examines the association between physical violence, defined here as acts of violence or threats of violence, with the consistency of condom use in HIV-serodiscordant heterosexual couples.…”

This paper examines the association between intimate partner violence and the consistency of condom use in a US urban cohort of HIV-serodiscordant couples. It uses both male and female data from the California Partners Study II of a lower-income ethnically mixed cohort of 145 such couples in the San Francisco Bay Area. We observed a significant association between inconsistent condom use and physical abuse: the risk of inconsistent condom use was double for those experiencing physical abuse (OR, 2.2; 95% CI, 1.1, 4.1).Injection drug use and a history of bisexual behavior were also associated with inconsistent condom use.Physical abuse tended to be reciprocal between partners (OR, 3.2; 95% CI, 1.9, 5.6). Our findings suggest that interventions effective in reducing intimate partner violence, and/or reducing the use of injection drugs in HIV-serodiscordant couples could lead to less transmission of HIV.
