The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and correlates of HIV risk among men receiving treatment for substance abuse in India. Consecutive inpatients from the major substance abuse hospital in southern India were screened using a structured interview and standardized measures to obtain demographic, psychiatric, sexual behavior, and substance use data at the time of admission. Seventy-seven percent of the 352 men who were screened reported that they were sexually active during the past year, and 13% reported that they had engaged in sexual practices associated with greater risk. The most common risk practices in the past year included having multiple sexual partners (7%), paying for sex (5%), and having unprotected anal sex (4%). Engaging in risky sexual practices was associated with the presence of a co-occurring psychiatric disorder and higher scores on a drug abuse screening measure. Assessing HIV risk in substance abuse settings can help to identify patients who may benefit from HIV-risk reduction programs.
本研究的目的是调查印度接受药物滥用治疗的男性中艾滋病毒感染风险的患病率及其相关因素。来自印度南部主要药物滥用医院的连续住院患者通过结构化访谈和标准化测量方法进行筛查，以获取入院时的人口统计学、精神病学、性行为和药物使用数据。在接受筛查的352名男性中，77%报告称他们在过去一年有性行为，13%报告称他们有与更高风险相关的性行为。过去一年中最常见的风险行为包括有多个性伴侣（7%）、付费性行为（5%）和无保护肛交（4%）。从事危险性行为与同时存在的精神障碍以及药物滥用筛查量表上的高分有关。在药物滥用环境中评估艾滋病毒感染风险有助于识别可能从降低艾滋病毒感染风险项目中受益的患者。
