Odds ratios which are significantly different from 1 are shown in bold (p < 0.05).

*Unadjusted number of people answering questions about condom use with each partner type. Number of individuals included in each analysis may be smaller, depending upon whether they answered questions relating to the intervention exposure under analysis; for continuous exposure variables, unexposed individuals are excluded.

aOR are unadjusted odds ratios.

bAOR are adjusted odds ratios, adjusted for the factors listed below.

cAdjusted for duration as MSM (categorised), sex work as main income, MSM identity (in 3 groups) and number of times had anal sex with new partners last week.

dAdjusted for religion (Hindu versus other) and number of times had anal sex with new partners last week.

eAdjusted for sex work as main income, MSM identity (in 3 groups), location where usually have sex with male partners (public or private), and number of times had anal sex with new partners last week.

fAOR adjusted for whether ever sold sex.

gAOR adjusted for whether ever paid a female for sex and whether ever sold sex.

hAOR adjusted for whether ever paid a female for sex and whether ever sold sex.

iAOR adjusted for duration as MSM (categorised) and sex work as main income.

jAOR adjusted for whether ever paid a female for sex, sex work as main income and MSM identity (in 3 groups).

kAOR adjusted for whether ever married to a woman, ever paid a female for sex and MSM identity (in 3 groups).
