  • Multiple logistic regression with generalised estimating equations. Each person year was modelled as a unique observation (n=7361 person-years among 2179 men).

  • *The sum total of years that participants were under observation.

  • †The per cent per year with a reactive test among all patients in care and under observation.

  • ‡Adjusted for all variables shown plus clinic.

  • MSM, men who have sex with men.
