1.	Sexually Transmitted Diseases (Sexually Transmitted Disease) 01/01/2008 - "To date, the condom is the most effective method available for males for protection against STDs. " 11/01/2005 - "Male condoms are undoubtedly the best protection against sexually transmitted diseases. " 01/01/2004 - "Although male condoms are the best form of protection against HIV/STDs, they are not the most effective method for preventing unintended pregnancy. " 03/01/1997 - " Of continuing concern is the possibility that the labeling of spermicides as effective against STDs will reduce use of condoms, the most effective barrier to HIV transmission." 01/01/1996 - "Among a nationally representative sample of 932 sexually experienced unmarried women aged 17-44, 41% reported using condoms for protection against sexually transmitted diseases, and 30% said they used condoms for this reason every time or most times they had intercourse.

2.	Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) 06/01/2008 - "The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has dramatically improved the prognosis for individual patients with AIDS, but it has been education and a changing attitude to condoms that has led to a progressive fall in incidence, so that the worst of the epidemic may now be over. " 01/01/1995 - " Another concern is the conflict between contraceptive methods that are most effective in preventing pregnancy and the condom use that is essential to halt the spread of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). " 08/01/1992 - "When used properly, condoms are highly effective in preventing both pregnancy and the spread of HIV and AIDS, the public health community has therefore strongly promoted condom use for disease prevention. " 12/01/1990 - " From experience like these, the author provides the following conclusions and suggestions: 1) people without access to social services often fail to receive AIDS education; 2) many people speak only their native language, so the conventional approach of using English -- Nigeria's official language -- proves ineffective; 3) educational forums that allow people to raise questions are the most effective; 4) the provision of additional services can help attract people in public places; 5) besides discussing the importance of condom use in AIDS prevention and family planning, a demonstration of correct condom use often makes the talks more interesting; 6) condom accessibility and acceptability can be improved by using clubs and associations as forums for AIDS education; and 7) transferring some of the responsibility of AIDS education to the members of these clubs and associations can help spread the message." 05/01/1989 - " Although condom availability has improved in the past year, opportunities exist at most California public universities to increase the distribution of condoms and improve associated AIDS-related health education efforts."

3.	Infection 01/01/1996 - " For example, condoms used correctly and consistently provide the best protection against infection. " 10/01/2009 - "RESULTS: Recent studies suggest that condom use offers some but not complete protection against HPV-infection. " 01/01/1989 - "The results of this study (a) reaffirm that receptive anal-genital intercourse is the major route of infection among homosexual men of HIV-1, (b) suggest that there is a low risk of HIV-1 infection to the insertive partner in anal-genital intercourse, (c) suggest that infection may rarely occur through sexual activities other than anal-genital intercourse, (d) provide evidence that condoms as currently used by men in the MACS provide significant but not complete protection against HIV-1 infection, and (e) suggest that the number of men in the homosexual community engaging in high-risk behavior is declining." 05/01/2005 - "Besides men's, there are women's condoms, which are very reliable protection against infections, but their negative side is that they are rather expensive. " 01/01/2003 - "The female condom provides an important alternative means of protection against HIV and other sexually transmitted infections for women, particularly in situations where partners are reluctant or refuse to use male condoms.

4.	HIV Infections (HIV Infection) 10/01/2006 - "RESULTS: If all components of the intervention reach target coverage (that is, PPT, STI treatment and condom use), the intervention is expected to prevent 22-35% of all new HIV infections in FSW and in the total population over 5 years in a low transmission setting like Mysore, and to be half as effective in high transmission settings such as Bagalkot. " 01/01/2003 - "Mean age was 41 years, 82.5% were male and 75.5% benefited from high school education; 75.75% had a good level of knowledge on HIV infection, 58% CI [51-65] stated having changed their sexual behavior into abstinence, fidelity to their partner (52.5%) and use of condom (46.5%). " 09/01/1997 - "While 29% perceived recapping needles as involving no risk, activities involving casual contact with patients and condom use for protection against HIV infection were associated with a high perceived risk of HIV transmission, particularly among nurses. " 07/01/1995 - "A targeted distribution of condoms to populations with a high demonstrated risk may be more effective in preventing new HIV infection." 04/03/1993 - " More health education is being carried out in Egypt than in any other Arab country except Lebanon, and the availability of condoms for family planning purposes helps in the protection against HIV infection."

5.	Gonorrhea 02/01/2004 - "Among 429 participants with known Gc/Ct exposure, consistent condom use was associated with a significant reduction in prevalent gonorrhea and chlamydia (30% vs. 43%; adjusted prevalence odds ratio = 0.42, 95% confidence interval: 0.18, 0.99). " 08/01/1995 - " Furthermore, condom use in a core group is more effective than condom use in the non-core group for reducing the prevalence of gonorrhea and HIV. " 09/01/2001 - "Special NIH review confirms condoms effective against transmission of HIV, gonorrhea." 11/09/2001 - "Irregular condom use was not protective against HIV or STD and was associated with increased gonorrhea/Chlamydia risk (OR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.06-1.99). " 03/01/1999 - "This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of condoms and vaginal spermicide products, used alone or in combination, in preventing gonorrhea and chlamydia among women attending an STD clinic.
