OBJECTIVES: To examine whether rectal gonorrhoea (RG; Neisseria gonorrhoeae) can be used as a lead indicator of trends in HIV diagnosis in men who have sex with men (MSM).
METHODS: Data from a metropolitan sexual health centre in Victoria, Australia, on RG and HIV tests in HIV-negative MSM from January 2006 to December 2011 were examined.
RESULTS: Allowing RG a 12-month lead over HIV showed no concordance in proportion positive (r=0.27; P-value=0.28).
CONCLUSIONS: The data do not support use of RG trends as a lead indicator of trends in HIV among MSM.
