To test whether "venue-based testing" could identify human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection in US youth, 12 to 24 years of age, who were otherwise not aware of their infection. Racial and ethnic minority women and men who have sex with men (WSM and MSM) compose the majority of new HIV cases among adolescents and young adults.
Cross-sectional study.
Selected venues in communities surrounding the 15 Adolescent Trials Network for HIV/AIDS Interventions (ATN) clinical sites over a 3-month period.
At each venue, ATN sites recruited 20 to 30 English- or Spanish-speaking at-risk youth (12 to 24 years of age), resulting in a total of 1217 study participants, including 611 MSM and 606 WSM. Intervention Venue-based HIV testing with 2 components: an anonymous audio computer-assisted self-administered interview and an anonymous HIV antibody assay.
The prevalence of HIV infection in MSM and WSM.
The prevalence of HIV infection in MSM and WSM was 15.3% and 0.3%, respectively. Sixty percent of the MSM and 100% of the WSM claimed to not know of their infection.
Venue-based testing may be an important strategy to identify HIV-infected younger MSM; however, other strategies are needed for WSM.
检测“场所检测”能否识别12至24岁、原本不知自己感染情况的美国青年中的人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染。与男性发生性行为的少数族裔女性和男性(WSM和MSM)占青少年和青年中新增HIV病例的大多数。
横断面研究。
在15个青少年HIV/艾滋病干预试验网络(ATN)临床站点周边社区的选定场所,为期3个月。
在每个场所,ATN站点招募20至30名讲英语或西班牙语的高危青年(12至24岁),共有1217名研究参与者,包括611名MSM和606名WSM。干预:基于场所的HIV检测,包括两个部分:匿名音频计算机辅助自我访谈和匿名HIV抗体检测。
MSM和WSM中HIV感染的患病率。
MSM和WSM中HIV感染的患病率分别为15.3%和0.3%。60%的MSM和100%的WSM声称不知道自己感染。
基于场所的检测可能是识别感染HIV的年轻MSM的重要策略;然而,WSM还需要其他策略。
