This review captured how digital strategies support social network approaches to promote HIV testing.
Overall, 29 studies were identified by searching PubMed and Embase for studies published up to June 2023. Existing studies revealed three types of digital strategies (social media (n = 28), online information channels (n = 4), and multifunctional digital platforms (n = 4)) split into four major modes of digital strategy-supported social-network-based HIV testing promotion: 1) Online outreach and recruiting, 2) gathering and identifying key populations for HIV testing, 3) communicating and disseminating online HIV testing health interventions, and 4) assisting and facilitating HIV testing uptake and distribution. Social network approaches supported by digital strategies yielded advantages in HIV testing education and distribution, which increases HIV testing coverage among key populations. Studies are needed on how to facilitate the use of digital strategies for social network-based HIV testing, as well as how to integrate them with existing HIV testing approaches.
本综述探讨了数字策略如何支持基于社交网络的 HIV 检测推广。
通过在 PubMed 和 Embase 上搜索截至 2023 年 6 月发表的研究，共确定了 29 项研究。现有研究揭示了三种数字策略（社交媒体（n=28）、在线信息渠道（n=4）和多功能数字平台（n=4）），分为数字策略支持的基于社交网络的 HIV 检测推广的四种主要模式：1）在线外展和招募，2）收集和确定 HIV 检测的重点人群，3）在线 HIV 检测健康干预的沟通和传播，以及 4）协助和促进 HIV 检测的采用和分发。数字策略支持的社交网络方法在 HIV 检测教育和分发方面具有优势，这增加了重点人群的 HIV 检测覆盖率。需要研究如何促进数字策略在基于社交网络的 HIV 检测中的使用，以及如何将其与现有的 HIV 检测方法相结合。
