An efficacious intervention that results in young people living with HIV (YPLH) reducing their transmission risk has been identified. The present study identifies who is most likely to benefit from the intervention. Regression models were used to examine whether background contextual factors moderated the intervention's success. Percentage of protected sex was moderated by ethnicity, use of antiretroviral medications (ARV), healthcare utilization and mental health. Number of partners was moderated by anxiety and depression. When deciding if an intervention is appropriate and beneficial for an individual young person, consideration must be given to type of services the youth currently accesses and the youth's mental health.
一种有效的干预措施已被确定,该措施能降低感染艾滋病毒的年轻人(YPLH)的传播风险。本研究确定了最有可能从该干预措施中受益的人群。使用回归模型来检验背景环境因素是否会影响干预措施的成功。受保护性行为的比例受到种族、抗逆转录病毒药物(ARV)的使用、医疗保健利用情况和心理健康的影响。性伴侣数量受到焦虑和抑郁的影响。在决定一项干预措施对某个年轻个体是否合适且有益时,必须考虑该青年目前所获得的服务类型以及其心理健康状况。
