This study examines the longitudinal relationship between personal and sexual partner incarceration and subsequent HIV risk behaviors among drug-involved men and their primary female sexual partners. A random sample of 356 men in methadone treatment in New York City were interviewed at baseline, 6 and 12 months; these men also reported information on their primary female sexual partners. Female partner recent incarceration was associated with subsequent increase in multiple partnerships for the male participants (AOR: 3.31; 95% C.I.: 1.26-8.72, P < .05). Female partner incarceration was also associated with reduced likelihood of subsequent unprotected sex between primary partners (AOR: .13; 95% C.I.: .05-.40, P < .01); this finding is somewhat unique and warrants further investigation. Findings support the notion of mutual influence in the case of female partner incarceration, which is associated with both female partner and male partner risk behaviors. HIV prevention implications are discussed, including the need for couple-based HIV prevention interventions targeting couples affected by incarceration.
本研究考察了个人和性伴侣监禁与吸毒男性及其主要女性性伴侣随后 HIV 风险行为之间的纵向关系。在纽约市接受美沙酮治疗的 356 名男性中进行了随机抽样，在基线、6 个月和 12 个月进行了访谈；这些男性还报告了他们主要女性性伴侣的信息。女性伴侣最近入狱与男性参与者随后的多伴侣关系增加有关（AOR：3.31；95%CI：1.26-8.72，P<.05）。女性伴侣入狱也与主要伴侣之间随后发生无保护性行为的可能性降低有关（AOR：.13；95%CI：.05-.40，P<.01）；这一发现有些独特，值得进一步研究。研究结果支持女性伴侣入狱情况下相互影响的观点，这与女性伴侣和男性伴侣的风险行为都有关。讨论了艾滋病毒预防的影响，包括需要针对受监禁影响的夫妇的基于夫妇的艾滋病毒预防干预措施。
