- The study aimed to assess the occurrence and features of concurrent bacterial sexually transmitted infections (bSTIs) in individuals diagnosed with mpox in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
- Out of 634 participants, 538 were tested for STIs; the overall rate of bSTIs was found to be 37.3%, primarily affecting cisgender men aged 30-39, with many also living with HIV.
- The findings highlight the significant coexistence of bSTIs in mpox patients, suggesting a need for better sexual health strategies that include mpox in diagnoses and preventive measures.
