We examined relationships between drug use patterns and HIV risk behaviors among 1121 street-recruited homeless, runaway, and 'street youth' in Northern California. Comparisons demonstrated that youth using any heroin, methamphetamine, or cocaine exhibited more sexual risks than non-users, while primary stimulant and combined heroin/stimulant users showed greatest sexual risk. Combined heroin/stimulant injectors showed higher risk injection practices than primary heroin or primary stimulant injectors, including frequent injections and backloading syringes. Interventions for street youth should be tailored to current drug use patterns since those using combinations of heroin and stimulants may require more comprehensive prevention, support and treatment services.
我们调查了北加利福尼亚州1121名通过街头招募的无家可归者、离家出走者和“街头青年”的吸毒模式与感染艾滋病毒风险行为之间的关系。比较结果显示，使用任何海洛因、甲基苯丙胺或可卡因的青年比不使用者表现出更多的性风险，而主要使用兴奋剂以及同时使用海洛因/兴奋剂的人表现出的性风险最大。同时使用海洛因/兴奋剂的注射者比主要使用海洛因或主要使用兴奋剂的注射者表现出更高风险的注射行为，包括频繁注射和回抽注射器。针对街头青年的干预措施应根据当前的吸毒模式进行调整，因为那些同时使用海洛因和兴奋剂的人可能需要更全面的预防、支持和治疗服务。
