Abstract

Objective To learn which dating App is most popular among men who have sex with men (MSM), analyze their demography, sexual behavior characteristics, AcquiredImmune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) and syphilis infection status, and provide evidence for formulating targeted intervention strategies. Methods The recruitment information was released by the MSM community-based organization to recruit participants among MSM. A same electronic questionnaire was used for a face-to-face survey and venous blood was collected for serological test of AIDS and syphilis. Results A total of 4 651 participants were involved. Based on the App they used most frequently, participants were divided into three groups. 2 160 (46.44%) were in Blued group, 2 113 (45.43%) in Wechat group and 378 (8.13%) in QQ group. In Blued group, the proportion of participants whose local residence duration was less than 3 months was 6.9% and highest in three groups. In Wechat group, the proportion of participants whose local residence duration was more than 12 months was 92.1%and highest in three groups. The difference was significant (χ² =60.326, P < 0.001). In Blued and Wechat group, the awareness rate of AIDS prevention knowledge and proportion of self identification as homosexual were higher than QQ group (P < 0.05). In Blued group, the proportions of participants who had group sex in the past six months were 8.1 % (highest), followed by QQ group (6.9%) and Wechat group (5.3%) (χ² =13.368, P=0.001). The positive rates of AIDS were 2.2% in blued group, 3.0% in wechat group and 3.4% in QQ group. There is no significant difference among the three groups (χ² =3.546, P=0.17). The positive rates of syphilis were 1.9% in Blued group, 3.7% in Wechat group and 2.9% in QQ group. There were significant differences among the three groups (χ² =14.017, P=0.001). Conclusions MSM who uses different dating APP have different infection risks of sexual transmitted infection. The targeted intervention strategies should be provided for MSM based on different characteristics respectively.
