title: Genitourinary medicine in Edinburgh: 1980-1987.
abstract: The variation in attendance at the department of Genitourinary Medicine in Edinburgh was studied for the period 1980 to 1987. A general decrease in the diagnosis of most specific sexually acquired infections is noted, with the exception of genital warts, the incidence of which continues to escalate. These changes initially occurred within the homosexual male attenders, but the general trends have since been reflected by the heterosexual population. The possible effect of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus on sexual awareness within the population as a whole is discussed.
