The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence of STIs and to evaluate different screening models in order to optimize the follow-up.</div></div><div><h3>Methodology</h3><div>A prospective study was conducted between 2017 and 2023, including 138 PrEP users in a STI clinic. Participants were tested for STIs every three months. Unscheduled visits were performed for those with STI-related symptoms or for people who were notified for an STI by a sexual partner. We performed a survival analysis of repeated events, estimating the cumulative incidence (<span>C</span>I) and incidence rate (IR).</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>The overall CI by quarterly screening was 8.3 (95% CI: 7.6–9.1) infections per person over six years, with a decreasing trend. The most frequently diagnosed pathogen was <em>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</em>, with a IR of 0.76 (95% CI: 0.68–0.84). If the frequency of screening is reduced to every six months, the IR of STIs is reduced by (95% CI: 0.5–0.66) infections per user per year, and at 12 months by 0.82 (95% CI: 0.73–0.89). In the case of no pharyngeal or urethral screening, IR is reduced by 0.37 (95% CI: 0.32–0.42) infections per person per year and in those over 35 years of age by 0.33 (95% CI: 0.25–0.4). Eliminating unscheduled visits, the reduction in IR is 0.33 (95% CI: 0.24–0.42).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>The incidence of STIs among PrEP users is high, especially in the rectum, but it does not increase over time. STI screening could be optimized reducing the frequency of pharyngeal and urethral testing, particularly in those over 35 years of age. It is essential to redistribute health resources for unscheduled visits, which have been shown to be the most cost-effective screening.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11608,"journal":{"name":"Enfermedades infecciosas y microbiologia clinica","volume":"42 10","pages":"Pages 570-576"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139871472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
