Tajik male labour migrants who inject drugs while working in Moscow are at high risk of acquiring HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) that compromise their health and potentially that of their sexual partners. In a cluster-randomized controlled trial, the "Migrants' Approached Self-Learning Intervention in HIV/AIDS for Tajiks" (MASLIHAT) reduced intervention participants' sexual risk behaviour including condomless sex, condomless sex with female sex workers (CS/FSW), and multiple sexual partners. This analysis investigates if the observed change in sexual risk behaviors due to the intervention translated into lower incidence of STIs among participants over 12-month follow-up.
