HIV self-testing offers an alternative to facility-based testing that could expand HIV testing among men who have sex with men (MSM). We organized an online survey of MSM in China to better understand the frequency and correlates of HIV self-testing. A total of 1342 individuals completed the survey. About 20.3% of MSM reported previous HIV self-testing. Self-testing was correlated with being married, having 6 or greater male anal sex partners in the past 3 months, and having HIV tested within 12 months in the multivariable analysis. Our study suggests that HIV self-testing may be able to reach subgroups of high-risk MSM and enable more frequent HIV testing.
艾滋病毒自我检测为基于医疗机构的检测提供了一种替代方案，这可能会扩大男男性行为者（MSM）中的艾滋病毒检测范围。我们在中国组织了一项针对男男性行为者的在线调查，以更好地了解艾滋病毒自我检测的频率及其相关因素。共有1342人完成了该调查。约20.3%的男男性行为者报告曾进行过艾滋病毒自我检测。在多变量分析中，自我检测与已婚、在过去3个月内有6个或更多男性肛交性伴侣以及在12个月内进行过艾滋病毒检测相关。我们的研究表明，艾滋病毒自我检测可能能够覆盖高危男男性行为者亚群体，并实现更频繁的艾滋病毒检测。
