Higher sexually transmissible infection test yield among men who have sex with men attending a community-based testing site compared with a clinical service in Sydney, Australia
Abstract

From January 2014 to December 2015, the overall yield of sexually transmitted infections testing among asymptomatic MSM was two-fold higher at a community-based versus clinic-based service. Compared with the clinic-based service, yield of chlamydia (9.0% vs 4.9%; P = 0.010), gonorrhea (6.5% vs 3.1%; P < 0.001), and infectious syphilis (0.9% vs 0.1%; P = 0.024) were all higher at the community-based service.
