Abstract
Key populations (KPs), including female sex workers (FSWs), men who have sex with men (MSM), transgender (trans) people, prisoners, and people who use drugs, have specific risk behaviours and other vulnerabilities that place them at increased risk of HIV1. In addition, they play an important role in the dynamics of HIV prevention and transmission both within and outside of KP communities, as KPs and the general population are frequently interconnected through their sexual networks.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
