BACKGROUND: Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is prevalent among HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM), with well-established risk factors and adverse outcomes. However, there is a lack of comprehensive investigation of both upstream risk factors and downstream adverse outcomes among HIV-infected MSM in a Chinese context. This study aimed to examine IPV and its associations among a Chinese sample of HIV-infected MSM. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 294 HIV-infected MSM in Jinan City from June to December 2020. All data were collected through an online questionnaire, which included IPV, sexual risk behavior, antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence, depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. Chi-square tests and multivariate logistic regressions were performed to examine risk factors and adverse outcomes of IPV. RESULTS: Of the 294 HIV-infected MSM, 71.1% experienced any IPV, including control (37.1%), threat of public identity (30.6%), emotional violence (25.2%), security threat (18.4%), and physical violence (13.9%). The prevalence of sexual risk behavior, good ART adherence, depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation was 55.1%, 53.4%, 48.3%, 32.3%, and 65.0%, respectively. Abuse of methamphetamine (METH) (aOR:2.79; 95%CI:1.43 ~ 5.45), capsule 0 or stimulating liquid (aOR:2.68; 95%CI:1.31 ~ 5.47), Magu (aOR:3.16; 95%CI:1.51 ~ 6.60), and other new drugs (aOR:2.87; 95%CI:1.52 ~ 5.43), disclosing HIV infection to partners (aOR:2.03; 95%CI:1.10 ~ 3.78), and gay sexual orientation (aOR = 3.32; 95%CI: 1.82 ~ 6.05) were significantly correlated with the experience of IPV. In addition, IPV was significantly associated with sexual risk behavior (aOR = 2.02; 95%CI:1.16 ~ 3.53), ART adherence (aOR = 2.63; 95%CI:1.46 ~ 4.74), depression (aOR = 3.83; 95%CI:2.09 ~ 7.02), anxiety (aOR = 2.27; 95%CI:1.19 ~ 4.35), and suicidal ideation (aOR = 3.78; 95%CI:2.11 ~ 6.80). CONCLUSIONS: IPV is prevalent among HIV-infected MSM and is associated with poor behavioral and mental health, highlighting more efforts are needed to address this issue. The finding that new drug abuse, HIV disclosure, and gay sexual orientation are associated with increased risk of IPV provides essential insights for the development of comprehensive and targeted IPV prevention and intervention programs in the future.
背景:亲密伴侣暴力(IPV)在感染 HIV 的男男性行为者(MSM)中很普遍,存在明确的风险因素和不良后果。然而,在中文背景下,对于 HIV 感染的 MSM 来说,既有的上游风险因素和下游不良后果的综合调查仍然缺乏。本研究旨在调查中国 HIV 感染 MSM 中 IPV 的发生情况及其相关性。
方法:2020 年 6 月至 12 月,在济南市对 294 名 HIV 感染 MSM 进行了横断面研究。所有数据均通过在线问卷收集,包括 IPV、性行为风险、抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)依从性、抑郁、焦虑和自杀意念。采用卡方检验和多变量逻辑回归分析来检验 IPV 的风险因素和不良后果。
结果:在 294 名 HIV 感染 MSM 中,71.1%经历过任何形式的 IPV,包括控制型(37.1%)、公开身份威胁型(30.6%)、情感暴力型(25.2%)、安全威胁型(18.4%)和身体暴力型(13.9%)。性行为风险、良好的 ART 依从性、抑郁、焦虑和自杀意念的发生率分别为 55.1%、53.4%、48.3%、32.3%和 65.0%。吸食冰毒(METH)(OR:2.79;95%CI:1.435.45)、胶囊或刺激液(OR:2.68;95%CI:1.315.47)、麻古(OR:3.16;95%CI:1.516.60)和其他新型毒品(OR:2.87;95%CI:1.525.43)、向伴侣披露 HIV 感染(OR:2.03;95%CI:1.103.78)和同性恋性取向(OR=3.32;95%CI:1.826.05)与经历 IPV 显著相关。此外,IPV 与性行为风险(OR:2.02;95%CI:1.163.53)、ART 依从性(OR:2.63;95%CI:1.464.74)、抑郁(OR:3.83;95%CI:2.097.02)、焦虑(OR:2.27;95%CI:1.194.35)和自杀意念(OR:3.78;95%CI:2.11~6.80)显著相关。
结论:IPV 在 HIV 感染的 MSM 中很普遍,与不良的行为和心理健康有关,这表明需要进一步努力解决这一问题。吸食新型毒品、HIV 披露和同性恋性取向与 IPV 风险增加相关,这为未来制定全面和有针对性的 IPV 预防和干预计划提供了重要的见解。
