The program Migrants' Approached Self-Learning Intervention in HIV/AIDS for Tajiks (MASLIHAT) trains male Tajik migrants who inject drugs in delivering HIV prevention information within their diaspora social networks. This analysis examines the indirect effect of the intervention on HIV testing among the participants' regular female sex partners. Modified mixed-effects Poisson regression analyses compared the proportions of participants with a regular female sex partner in the MASLIHAT versus the TANSIHAT control condition who reported that their partner had been tested for HIV. Of the 420 participants, 108 (26%) reported having a regular female sex partner. Regression analyses indicated that HIV partner testing increased significantly in both conditions over the follow-up period, with MASLIHAT participants reporting a higher rate at 12 months than the TANSIHAT control group (IRR = 1.66, 95% CI [1.21, 2.28]). The MAS-LIHAT intervention increased female partner HIV testing over 12 months when compared to a non-HIV focused health education intervention.
塔吉克族移民艾滋病自我学习干预项目（MASLIHAT）培训在散居地社交网络中传播艾滋病毒预防信息的塔吉克族男性吸毒移民。本分析考察了该干预措施对参与者固定女性性伴侣艾滋病毒检测的间接影响。修正的混合效应泊松回归分析比较了在MASLIHAT组与TANSIHAT对照组中，报告其伴侣接受过艾滋病毒检测的有固定女性性伴侣的参与者比例。在420名参与者中，108名（26%）报告有固定女性性伴侣。回归分析表明，在随访期间，两种情况下的艾滋病毒伴侣检测率均显著增加，MASLIHAT参与者在12个月时的检测率高于TANSIHAT对照组（发病率比值比=1.66，95%置信区间[1.21，2.28]）。与非艾滋病毒重点健康教育干预相比，MAS-LIHAT干预在12个月内提高了女性伴侣的艾滋病毒检测率。
