In this study, we investigated how individual attributes, dyad characteristics and social network characteristics may influence engaging in receptive syringe sharing, distributive syringe sharing and sharing cookers in injecting partnerships of IDUs in St Petersburg, Russia. We found that all three levels were associated with injecting equipment sharing, and that dyad characteristics were modified by characteristics of the social network. Self-reported HIV discordance and male gender concordance played a role in the risk of equipment sharing. Dyad interventions may not be sufficient to reduce injecting risk in IDU partnerships, but a combination of dyad and network interventions that target both IDU partnerships and the entire IDU population may be more appropriate to address injecting risk among IDUs.
在这项研究中,我们调查了个体属性、对偶特征和社会网络特征如何影响俄罗斯圣彼得堡 IDU 注射伙伴关系中接受性注射器共享、分配性注射器共享和共享炊具的行为。我们发现,所有三个层面都与注射设备共享有关,并且对偶特征受到社会网络特征的影响。自我报告的 HIV 不一致和男性性别一致性在设备共享风险中发挥作用。对偶干预措施可能不足以降低 IDU 伙伴关系中的注射风险,但结合针对 IDU 伙伴关系和整个 IDU 人群的对偶和网络干预措施可能更适合解决 IDU 中的注射风险。
