To assess HIV/sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevalence and associated risk factors among miners in Yunnan, China.
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1798 miners in 2 townships of Gejiu City, Yunnan, from March to May 2006. Standardized interviewer-administered questionnaires were completed and specimens collected for HIV/STI testing.
The prevalence of HIV, Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, syphilis, herpes simplex virus-2, and any STIs among all miners was 0.7%, 4.8%, 0.8%, 1.8%, 9.6%, and 14.9%, respectively. One fifth of miners reported patronizing female sex workers (FSWs) at least once, and of these, 72% never used a condom with a FSW. Miners who visited FSWs had a higher prevalence of HIV (1.8% vs. 0.5%) and any STI (23.2% vs. 4.3%), including C. trachomatis (6.9% vs. 4.3%), N. gonorrhoeae (2.1% vs. 0.5%), and herpes simplex virus-2 (14.9% vs. 8.4%), and higher rates of illegal drug use compared with miners who visited no FSWs.
High prevalence of HIV/STIs among miners in Gejiu warrants special attention to this population, and vigorous interventions should address both sexual and drug use-related risk.
评估中国云南矿工中 HIV/性传播感染(STI)的流行情况和相关危险因素。
2006 年 3 月至 5 月,在云南省个旧市 2 个乡镇对 1798 名矿工进行了横断面研究。采用标准化的访谈式问卷调查,并采集标本进行 HIV/STI 检测。
所有矿工的 HIV、沙眼衣原体、淋病奈瑟菌、梅毒、单纯疱疹病毒 2 及任何 STI 的流行率分别为 0.7%、4.8%、0.8%、1.8%、9.6%和 14.9%。五分之一的矿工至少光顾过 1 次性工作者(FSW),其中 72%与 FSW 发生性行为时从不使用安全套。光顾 FSW 的矿工 HIV 感染率(1.8%比 0.5%)和任何 STI(23.2%比 4.3%)包括沙眼衣原体(6.9%比 4.3%)、淋病奈瑟菌(2.1%比 0.5%)和单纯疱疹病毒 2(14.9%比 8.4%)的流行率更高,且非法药物使用率也高于未光顾 FSW 的矿工。
个旧矿工 HIV/STI 的高流行率值得对这一人群给予特别关注,应针对性和药物使用相关的风险采取强化干预措施。
