We examined antiretroviral therapy (ART) use among 501 previously diagnosed HIV-infected men who have sex with men who sought care at a sexually transmitted disease clinic in King County, WA, during 2004-2008. Overall, 42% of men were not taking ART, 71% of whom had CD4 counts >350 cells per microliter. Of those who reported unprotected anal intercourse with a partner of nonconcordant HIV status in the prior year, 48% were not taking ART (78% with CD4 counts >350 cells/μL). Sexually transmitted disease clinics may be an important venue in which to identify persons who are not taking ART. Treating these persons could help diminish HIV transmission.
我们研究了 501 名曾被诊断患有 HIV 的男男性接触者的抗逆转录病毒治疗 (ART) 使用情况,这些男男性接触者在 2004-2008 年间曾在华盛顿州金县的一家性传播疾病诊所接受治疗。总体而言,42%的男性没有服用 ART,其中 71%的人 CD4 计数超过每微升 350 个细胞。在过去一年中,报告与 HIV 状况不一致的伴侣发生无保护肛交的人中,有 48%没有服用 ART(78%的人 CD4 计数超过每微升 350 个细胞)。性传播疾病诊所可能是发现未接受 ART 治疗者的重要场所。治疗这些人可以帮助减少 HIV 的传播。
