To know the status of HIV infection and the correlates for HIV infection among MSMW in China. This research examined the risks for HIV in 600 MSMW in Chengdu and Guangzhou, China. Participants completed a structured behavioral risk survey and were tested for HIV status. Overall, 26.2 % (n = 157) of the sample were HIV-positive, and 7 % (n = 41) were newly diagnosed and previously unaware of their HIV-positive status. Independent correlates of new HIV infection were Chengdu residence, being currently married, and sometimes using condoms during anal intercourse. Compared with previously diagnosed participants, newly diagnosed participants were more likely to have unprotected sex in the anal and vaginal sexes. Given the high risk for HIV in MSMW in these Chinese cities, public health interventions are needed to promote frequent HIV testing and to address sexual risk behaviors with both male and female partners.
了解中国男男性行为者(MSMW)中 HIV 感染的状况和相关因素。本研究在中国成都和广州的 600 名 MSMW 中调查了 HIV 感染的风险。参与者完成了一项结构化的行为风险调查,并接受了 HIV 感染状况的检测。总的来说,样本中有 26.2%(n=157)的人 HIV 呈阳性,其中 7%(n=41)为新诊断且之前未意识到其 HIV 阳性状态。新感染 HIV 的独立相关因素包括成都居住、目前已婚以及肛交时有时使用安全套。与以前诊断的参与者相比,新诊断的参与者在肛交和阴道性交中更有可能无保护性行为。鉴于这些中国城市 MSMW 中 HIV 的高风险,需要采取公共卫生干预措施,促进频繁的 HIV 检测,并解决与男性和女性伴侣的性行为风险。
