Notes: Neither participant nor partner on PrEP category is shown because of redundancy with Table 2. Values with 0.00 are non-zero, rounded numbers.
p < 0.05;
p < 0.01;
p < 0.001.
RRR = relative risk ratio; this is the multinomial logistic regression coefficient exponentiated (i.e., eb).
NR = not reported due to large values.
Values are not reported because of concern of a spurious finding since zero individuals fall within this category (i.e., RRR = 3.46***, 2.16–5.56 95% CI).
Sexually transmitted infection diagnoses included chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis.
