Abstract
Since the first case of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among Chinese men who have sex with men (MSM) was discovered in 1989 in Beijing,1 a growing body of research has documented substantial and expanding epidemics of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV within this group. In this issue of the journal, Xu et al report a disturbingly high incidence of HIV and syphilis infections among a 12-month MSM cohort in northern China.2 Their results are consistent with findings observed from other urban Chinese studies of MSM.3,4
