N2 - Campylobacteriosis is a disease of worldwide importance, but aspects of its transmission dynamics, particularly risk factors, are still poorly understood. We used data from a matched case-control study of 4,269 men who have sex with men (MSM) and 26,215 controls, combined with national surveillance data on Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp., and Shigella spp., to calculate matched odds ratios ( mORs) for infection among MSM and controls. MSM had higher odds of Campylobacter (mOR 14, 95% CI 10-21) and Shigella (mOR 74, 95% CI 27-203) infections, but not Salmonella (mOR 0.2, 95% CI 0-13), and were less likely than controls to have acquired Campylobacter infection abroad (chi(2) = 21; p
