This study examined HIV prevalence and risk behaviors among male injection drug users (IDUs) who have sex with men and among other male IDUs.
Male IDUs were interviewed and tested for HIV at a detoxification clinic during 1990 to 1994 and 1995 to 1999. Analyses compared male IDUs who do and do not have sex with men within and between periods.
Initially, HIV seroprevalence and risk behaviors were higher among IDUs who have sex with men. Seroprevalence (initially 60.5% vs 48.3%) declined approximately 15% in both groups, remaining higher among those who have sex with men. Generally, injection prevalence, but not sexual risk behaviors, declined.
Male IDUs who have sex with men are more likely to engage in higher-risk behaviors and to be HIV infected. Improved intervention approaches for male IDUs who have sex with men are needed.
本研究调查了男男性行为注射吸毒者以及其他男性注射吸毒者中的艾滋病毒流行情况和风险行为。
1990年至1994年以及1995年至1999年期间,在一家戒毒所对男性注射吸毒者进行了访谈和艾滋病毒检测。分析比较了不同时期内有和没有男男性行为的男性注射吸毒者情况。
最初,男男性行为注射吸毒者中的艾滋病毒血清阳性率和风险行为较高。两组的血清阳性率(最初分别为60.5%和48.3%)均下降了约15%,男男性行为者中的血清阳性率仍较高。一般来说,注射流行率下降了,但性风险行为没有下降。
男男性行为注射吸毒者更有可能从事高风险行为并感染艾滋病毒。需要改进针对男男性行为注射吸毒者的干预方法。
