To present results from HIV testing, knowledge of HIV status and socioeconomic factors associated with the probability of having a HIV positive result among transwomen (TW) in Mexico.
In 2012, we conducted an HIV seroprevalence survey to 585 TW in Mexico City in three strata: gathering places, the Condesa HIV Clinic and in four detention centers. We estimated the prevalence of HIV in each strata and applied a probit model to the overall sample to analyze factors associated with the probability of a HIV positive result.
The prevalence of HIV was 19.8% in meeting places; 31.9% in detention centers and 64% among the participants of the clinic. Age, low education and number of sexual partners was positively associated with HIV.
Results from the study provide relevant information to design HIV prevention interventions tailored to the needs of the TW population.
呈现墨西哥跨性别女性（TW）中HIV检测结果、对HIV感染状况的知晓情况以及与HIV检测呈阳性概率相关的社会经济因素。
2012年，我们在墨西哥城对585名跨性别女性进行了HIV血清流行率调查，分为三个层次：聚集场所、孔德萨HIV诊所及四个拘留中心。我们估算了各层次的HIV流行率，并对整个样本应用了概率单位模型，以分析与HIV检测呈阳性概率相关的因素。
在聚集场所，HIV流行率为19.8%；在拘留中心为31.9%，在诊所参与者中为64%。年龄、低教育程度和性伴侣数量与HIV呈正相关。
该研究结果为设计针对跨性别女性群体需求的HIV预防干预措施提供了相关信息。
