AB  - BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are one of the major 
      health concerns globally. Generally, prisoners are at higher risks for STIs due 
      to risk factors including; drug-use, high-risk sexual behaviors, densely 
      populated prisons, and poor living conditions. Therefore, we aimed to conduct a 
      systematic review to evaluate the existing data on STI prevalence, and its 
      associated risk factors among prisoners. METHODS: We conducted a systematic 
      search of the literature using the keywords in Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, 
      and Google Scholar online databases. We selected all the relevant original 
      studies in English through title/abstract and full-text screening process.‎. 
      RESULTS: Based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we selected and reviewed 
      32 studies out of 96 identified papers. The most important STI-associated risk 
      factors among prisoners were drug use, low educational levels, and unsafe sex. 
      The prevalence of STIs was heterogenous in selected studies and was reported as 
      follows; Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) (0%-14.5%), hepatitis B viruses (HBV) 
      (0.04%-27.23%), hepatitis C viruses (HCV) (0.17%-49.7%), Syphilis (0.2%-22.1%), 
      Chlamydia Trachomatis (CT) (1.02%-6.7%), Gonorrhea (0.6%-7.8%), and herpes 
      simplex virus-2 (HSV-2) 22.4%. CONCLUSION: This systematic review indicates that 
      the prevalence of STIs (HIV, HBV, HCV, Syphilis, Chlamydia Trachomatis, 
      Gonorrhea, and HSV-2) among prisoners appears to be higher than the general 
      population, with drug abuse, low educational levels, and unsafe sex as major risk 
      factors.
