Methods: A cross-sectional epidemiological study was conducted with 144 MSM in Teresina, Piauí, Brazil, using the snowball sampling technique. Participants were recruited via snowball sampling and underwent rapid HIV testing, in addition to completing questionnaires on sexual practices, risk perception, and illicit drug use. Results: The majority of participants showed an unsatisfactory perception of HIV risk. Factors associated with this perception include non-penetrative sex as an HIV preventive measure, which increased the chances of having an unsatisfactory risk perception by 1.45 times (P =.04), engaging with known HIV-positive individuals without knowledge of their viral load (ORa = 2.70; P =.043), and using illicit drugs before/during sex (ORa = 0.29; P =.048). Conclusions: The results indicate a high prevalence of risky sexual practices and an unsatisfactory HIV risk perception among the MSM studied.Centro de Investigação em Saúde Pública (CISP/PHRC)Comprehensive Health Research Centre (CHRC) - Pólo ENSPEscola Nacional de Saúde Pública (ENSP)RUNAraújo, Telma Maria Evangelista deChaves, Fernanda Raquel CostaOliveira, Mônica Graziela França Uchôa deChaves, André Felipe de Castro PereiraSoares, Yndiara Kássia da CunhaBorges, Paulo de Tarso MouraBorges, Saulo Evangelista MouraAlencar, Vitor Monte de CastroCamargo, Emerson Lucas SilvaMendes, Isabel Amélia CostaSousa, Álvaro Francisco Lopes de2024-10-17T23:06:10Z2024-01-012024-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/173673eng2325-9574PURE: 101500376https://doi.org/10.1177/23259582241283196info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-10-21T01:39:20Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/173673Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T18:59:37.822329Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
