This summarizes proceedings of a Scientific Research Planning Meeting on Sexual Violence and HIV transmission, convened by the Social Science Research Council on 19–20 March 2012 at the Greentree Foundation in New York. The Meeting brought together an interdisciplinary group of basic, clinical, epidemiological and social science researchers and policy makers with the aim of: (1) examining what is known about the physiology of sexual violence and its role in HIV transmission, acquisition and pathogenesis; (2) specifying factors that distinguish risks throughout the maturation of the female genital tract, the reproductive cycle and among post-menopausal women; and (3) developing a research agenda to explore unanswered questions. The Meeting resulted in a consensus Research Agenda and White Paper that identify priorities for HIV research, policy and practice as it pertains to the role of sexual violence and genital injury in HIV transmission, acquisition and pathogenesis, particularly among women and girls.
本次会议总结了 2012 年 3 月 19 日至 20 日,社会科学研究理事会在纽约绿树林基金会召开的性暴力与 HIV 传播科学研究规划会议的相关内容。本次会议召集了基础、临床、流行病学和社会科学研究人员以及政策制定者等跨学科群体,旨在:(1)检查目前对性暴力的生理机制及其在 HIV 传播、感染和发病机制中的作用的了解;(2)明确区分女性生殖道成熟过程、生殖周期以及绝经后女性各个阶段风险的因素;(3)制定研究议程,以探索尚未解决的问题。本次会议达成了共识性的研究议程和白皮书,确定了与性暴力和生殖器损伤在 HIV 传播、感染和发病机制中的作用相关的 HIV 研究、政策和实践的优先事项,特别是针对妇女和女孩。
