Abstract：Objective To explore the prevalence and influencing factors of rush poppers use among men who have sex with men(MSM) in Sichuan Province. Methods A convenience sampling method was used to recruit surveyed subjects in Deyang City, Yibin City and Xichang City, Sichuan Province, and a self-administered anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted. Non-conditional logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting rush poppers use among MSM. Results A total of 1,122 eligible MSM were enrolled into this study. The majority of the participants were more than 25 years old, single and local residents, had a senior high school education level or below, were solo business owners, service providers or others and had a monthly income of more than 3,000 Yuan. 27.7% of the participants reported having used at least one type of recreational drugs in the lifetime and rush poppers were the most commonly used drug (24.1%) among MSM. Logistic regression analysis indicated that preferring receptive anal intercourse (OR=2.488, 95%CI:1.587-3.901) or versatile anal intercourse (OR=2.233, 95%CI:1.494-3.340), age at sexual debut < 18 years (OR=1.424, 95%CI:1.025-1.978), alcohol use in the last year (OR=2.347, 95%CI:1.473-3.740) and engaging in group sex (OR=1.681, 95%CI:1.113-2.539) were the factors influencing rush poppers use among MSM. Conclusion Rush poppers use was common among MSM in Sichuan Province. The overlap of rush poppers use and other risky behavior like group sex can place MSM at increased risk for infection with and transmission of HIV. Therefore, targeted intervention measures should be tailored based on the sociodemographic and behavioral characteristics of rush poppersusers so as to decline the risk of HIV infection and transmission among MSM.
