Article Abstract
HIV/STI risk varies by sexual positioning practices; however, limited data have characterized the behavioral profiles of men who have sex with men (MSM) in France. This study used latent class analysis (LCA) to explore sexual risk profiles among MSM in Paris, France. LCA was used to classify sexual positioning and serosorting profiles among MSM in Paris (n = 496). Age, HIV status, relationship status, substance use, group sex, and PrEP history were used in a multinomial regression model predicting class membership. Three latent classes were identified: majority top/serosorters, versatile/low partners, and majority bottom/some serosorters. Majority top/serosorters had the highest probability of condomless serosorting; majority bottom/some serosorters had the highest mean number of partners (~ 12 partners) for condomless receptive anal intercourse. HIV-positive MSM were more likely to be classified as majority bottom/some serosorters than versatile/low partners (AOR 7.61; 95% CI 2.28, 25.3). Findings support the need for tailored and targeted interventions for highest-risk individuals.

Queer temporality in Tony Kushner's angels in America.
J Aging Stud

University of Graz, Department of American Studies, Attemsgasse 25/II, 8010 Graz, Austria. Electronic address:
Tony Kushner's Angels in America, written in two parts during the early 1990s, vividly depicts the experiences of queer individuals confronting the AIDS crisis. Examined through the framework of anocriticism and queer temporality, the play challenges traditional life trajectories focused on reproduction, aging, and progress. Drawing on the work of theorists such as Roberta Maierhofer, Jack Halberstam, and Elizabeth Freeman, this analysis investigates how the play's fragmented narrative and interplay of supernatural and historical elements blur the boundaries between past, present, and future.

Background: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is an emerging global health concern, and its presence increases the risk of multi-system diseases. This study aimed to investigate the multimorbidity trajectories of chronic diseases in people living with MASLD.
Methods: We identified 137 859 MASLD patients in UK Biobank and used 'propensity score matching' to match an equal number of non-MASLD controls.

Objective: Androgens have been prescribed to alleviate symptoms in midlife women, but evidence regarding benefits and risks remains limited, with no clearly established indications for Testosterone therapy. In many Latin American countries, Testosterone is prescribed without specific guidelines, making it difficult to identify patients who might benefit. This position statement aims to summarize evidence and provide a Latin American perspective on androgen therapy in midlife and older women.
