Few studies of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration and sexual risk behavior among men have examined how multiple dimensions of these behaviors intersect in ways that may uniquely elevate health risks. The current study used latent class analysis to: (1) identify distinct patterns of IPV and sexual risk behavior in a sample of Tanzanian men (n = 985) and (2) examine associations between identified patterns and health outcomes. Four classes were identified: normative (64% of the sample), IPV only (14%), sexual risk only (13%), and comorbid IPV/sexual risk (5%). Compared to men in the normative subgroup, men in the comorbid group had significantly higher odds of STI infection, higher perceived HIV risk, and greater odds of substance use. Findings provide evidence that engaging in IPV and multiple sexual partnerships (i.e., a comorbid pattern) denotes elevated health risks across a range of indicators, suggesting the importance of targeted treatment and prevention efforts for men in this subgroup.

很少有关于男性亲密伴侣暴力 (IPV) 实施和性风险行为的研究检查了这些行为的多个维度如何以可能独特地提高健康风险的方式相交。目前的研究使用潜在类别分析来：(1) 在坦桑尼亚男性样本 (n = 985) 中识别不同的 IPV 模式和性风险行为，以及 (2) 检查识别模式与健康结果之间的关联。确定了四类：规范（占样本的 64%）、仅 IPV（14%）、仅性风险（13%）和合并 IPV/性风险（5%）。与正常亚组中的男性相比，合并症中的男性组的 STI 感染几率显着更高，感知的 HIV 风险更高，物质使用的几率更高。研究结果提供的证据表明，参与 IPV 和多重性伙伴关系（即共病模式）表明一系列指标的健康风险升高，表明对这一亚组男性进行有针对性的治疗和预防工作的重要性。
