Declarations

: All participants were informed about the purpose of the study and participation was completely voluntary. All participants provided verbal consent to be interviewed and tested. The study team assured the participants they would not be affected if they refused to participate. Gender-matched interviews were conducted in a private room inside the prisons. The questionnaires were anonymous and no identification was recorded in any survey. The participants were informed that they could refuse to answer any questions they wanted. There was no compensation for participating in these surveys. Only the eligible study team had access to the data, and prison staff did not have access. The Ethical Committee of Kerman University of Medical Sciences reviewed and approved the study protocol in all surveys. All methods were performed in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations (Reference number: K/93/207, IR.KMU.REC.1394.609).
