Prevalence and health correlates of prostitution among patients entering treatment for substance use disorders.
Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2008; (3): 337-44

However, a broader understanding of how prostitution affects mental and physical health is needed. In particular, the study of prostitution among individuals in substance use treatment would improve efforts to provide comprehensive treatment.
