比较选定国家在扩大治疗规模之前自我报告的艾滋病毒检测和收到结果方面具有国家代表性的趋势。来自撒哈拉以南非洲13个国家的人口与健康调查数据被用来描述性活跃参与者接受艾滋病毒检测的模式。单变量和多变量logistic回归分析社会人口统计学和行为特征和测试的摄取之间的关联。对血清状况的了解程度从几内亚妇女的2.2%（2005年）到卢旺达妇女的27.4%（2005年）不等。尽管测试水平不同，但单变量分析显示，各国测试人员的概况在居住地区和社会经济地位等社会人口特征方面非常相似。与艾滋病毒阴性的参与者相比，艾滋病毒阳性的参与者更有可能进行检测并收到结果，但塞内加尔的妇女和几内亚的男子除外。调整后的分析表明，中等或高等教育水平是检测的一个关键决定因素，一旦考虑到其他特征，对治疗存在的认识与检测独立呈正相关。这项工作提供了一个基线，以监测检测趋势，并探索在采用和扩大治疗后接受检测者的情况变化。
To compare nationally representative trends in self-reported uptake of HIV testing and receipt of results in selected countries prior to treatment scale-up. Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data from 13 countries in sub-Saharan Africa were used to describe the pattern of uptake of testing for HIV among sexually active participants. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyse the associations between socio-demographic and behavioural characteristics and the uptake of testing. Knowledge of serostatus ranged from 2.2% among women in Guinea (2005) to 27.4% among women in Rwanda (2005). Despite varied levels of testing, univariate analysis showed the profile of testers to be remarkably similar across countries, with respect to socio-demographic characteristics such as area of residence and socio-economic status. HIV-positive participants were more likely to have tested and received their results than HIV-negative participants, with the exception of women in Senegal and men in Guinea. Adjusted analyses indicate that a secondary or higher level of education was a key determinant of testing, and awareness that treatment exists was independently positively associated with testing, once other characteristics were taken into account. This work provides a baseline for monitoring trends in testing and exploring changes in the profile of those who get tested after the introduction and scale-up of treatment.
