This study examines the association between depressive symptoms and condom use with clients among 278 female sex workers (FSW) in Guangxi, China. About 62% of these FSW had a high level of depressive symptoms (CES-D total score >or=16). Multiple logistic regression analyses indicated that FSW with high level of depressive symptoms were less likely to use condoms consistently (aOR = 0.50, 95% CI: 0.28-0.89) or use condoms properly (aOR = 0.44, 95% CI: 0.20-0.99). The findings suggested that HIV prevention programs targeted at FSW should take into consideration the level of depression they experience.
本研究调查了中国广西278名女性性工作者中抑郁症状与向客户使用避孕套之间的关联。这些女性性工作者中约62%有高水平的抑郁症状(流调中心抑郁量表总分≥16)。多项逻辑回归分析表明,有高水平抑郁症状的女性性工作者持续使用避孕套的可能性较小(校正比值比=0.50,95%置信区间:0.28-0.89),正确使用避孕套的可能性也较小(校正比值比=0.44,95%置信区间:0.20-0.99)。研究结果表明,针对女性性工作者的艾滋病预防项目应考虑她们的抑郁程度。
