Search strategies to investigate STI testing amongst PrEP users Search methodology Nine databases were searched on 20 November 2018. The search strategies looked for information on sexually transmitted infections and pre-exposure prophylaxis, no limits were added. The search strategy was compiled in the OvidSP Medline database by Jane Falconer, using the list of sexually transmitted infections listed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and using terms used by the Cochrane STIs group (1). The search strategy was refined with the project team until the results retrieved reflected the scope of the project. The final Medline search was amended to run across the other databases. The databases searched were: * OvidSP Medline and In-Process & Other Non-Indexed Citations and Daily, 1946 to November 19, 2018. * OvidSP Embase, 1974 to 2018 November 19 * OvidSP Global Health, 1910 to 2018 Week 45 * OvidSP EconLit, 1886 to November 15, 2018 * EBSCO CINAHL Plus, complete database * EBSCO Africa-Wide Information, complete database * Web of Science Core Collection, which included: a.
