目标.作者研究了非洲裔美国人、亚洲/太平洋岛民(API)和拉丁裔男-女(MTF)变性人中的艾滋病风险行为,以改善艾滋病预防计划。个别调查访谈MTF跨性别的人的颜色(n = 332; 112非洲裔美国人,110拉丁美洲人,和110 API)进行。接受性肛交和无保护接受性肛交(URAS)的患病率和相关性因性伴类型(主要性伴、临时性伴或商业性伴)而异。与主要性伙伴的URAS与性行为前的药物使用相关;与临时性伙伴的URAS与HIV阳性状态和性行为前的药物使用相关;与商业性伙伴的URAS与非裔美国人种族和低收入相关。MTF跨性别者当前危险行为的研究结果为艾滋病预防干预提供了有意义的启示。
Objectives. The authors examined HIV risk behaviors among African American, Asian/Pacific Islander (API), and Latina male-to-female (MTF) transgender persons in order to improve HIV prevention programs.Methods. Individual survey interviews with MTF transgender persons of color (n = 332; 112 African Americans, 110 Latinas, and 110 APIs) were conducted.Results. Prevalence and correlates of receptive anal sex and unprotected receptive anal sex (URAS) varied by type of partner (primary, casual, or commercial sex partners). URAS with primary partners was associated with drug use before sex; URAS with casual partners was associated with HIV-positive status and drug use before sex; and URAS with commercial sex partners was associated with African American ethnicity and low income.Conclusions. Findings on current risk behaviors among MTF transgender persons provided meaningful implications for HIV prevention interventions.
