“…139 In a systematic review the protective effect for chlamydia ranged from 10% to 90%, and for gonorrhoea ranged from 13% to 100%. 140 The authors reported that studies that were limited to individuals with known STI exposure were likely to estimate the protective effect of condom use more accurately. Niccolai and colleagues 141 estimated the effectiveness of condoms for the prevention of chlamydia among people who were exposed to the infection and found that consistent condom use was significantly associated with a 90% reduction in the prevalence of chlamydia.…”

HTAThe effectiveness and costeffectiveness of behavioural interventions for the prevention of sexually transmitted infections in young people aged 13-19: a systematic review and economic evaluation NIHR Health Technology Assessment programmeT he Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme, part of the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), was set up in 1993. It produces high-quality research information on the effectiveness, costs and broader impact of health technologies for those who use, manage and provide care in the NHS. 'Health technologies' are broadly defined as all interventions used to promote health, prevent and treat disease, and improve rehabilitation and long-term care. The research findings from the HTA programme directly influence decision-making bodies such as the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the National Screening Committee (NSC). HTA findings also help to improve the quality of clinical practice in the NHS indirectly in that the...

Fundamentals of Sexually Transmitted Infections

Sexually transmited diseases (STDs) can be transmited through genital-genital, orogenital, or anogenital contacts and remain to be a public health concern worldwide. Approximately one million people around the world are believed to be newly infected with sexually transmited infections (STIs) each day. Numerous causative agents including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, yeast, and fungi are responsible for STIs; however, viruses exhibit more serious risks, probabilities and outcomes of STDs than other organisms. The most lethal viral STIs are human immunodeiciency virus-1 (HIV), herpes simplex viruses 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), and human papillomavirus (HPV), which are responsible for major sexually transmited viral infections including AIDS, herpes simplex, and genital warts, respectively. Despite the fact that several prevention strategies such as vaccination, abstinence from sex, limiting sex partners, the use of condoms and a range of therapeutic drugs have drastically reduced the risk of contracting STIs, these three infections continue to spread at an alarming rate. The high incidence and lack of efective vaccine, instigated scientists to look for alternate, cheap, and eicient strategies for controlling these deadly viruses. Microbicide are relatively new approach that may be helpful in preventing STIs transmission when applied inside the genitals before intercourse. Like other interventions, microbicides are used as prophylactic measures against STIs. Therefore, an excellent safety and eicacy proile analysis is mandatory before their approval for human use. Although no safe and eicacious microbicide is yet available, many candidates including nonoxynol-9, Savvy, cellulose sulfate, Carraguard, VivaGel, tenofovir gel, and PRO 2000 have shown promising in vitro activity and many more are under development. However, very few of them have moved to large-scale phase III trials. This chapter aims to provide a brief overview of various microbicides along with their mechanism of actions and recent updates on safety and efectiveness trials.

“…Consistent and correct condom use in penetrative vaginal and anal sex has been demonstrated as an effective way of preventing HIV transmission (7). Condoms also prevent the transmission of other sexually transmitted infections such as syphilis and gonorrhea.…”
