人们对艾滋病毒感染对分居、离婚和丧偶造成的家庭破裂的影响知之甚少。本研究使用生命表和多项逻辑回归，研究了艾滋病毒状况对乌干达拉凯妇女分居、离婚和守寡风险的影响。多变量结果显示，离婚在艾滋病毒感染女性中更为常见，而且与其他艾滋病毒状况夫妇中的女性相比，艾滋病毒不一致的夫妇中的感染女性特别有可能面临分居或离婚。这些结果凸显了妇女容易受到艾滋病毒感染的社会影响，以及对婚姻破裂进行二元研究的重要性。
Little is known about the impact of HIV infection on the disruption of families through separation, divorce, and widowhood. Using life tables and multinomial logistic regression, this research examined the influence of HIV status on the risk of separation or divorce and widowhood among women in Rakai, Uganda. The multivariate results revealed that dissolution is more common among HIV-infected women and that infected women in HIV-discordant couples are especially likely to face separation or divorce than women in other HIV-status couples. These results highlight women vulnerability to the social impact of HIV infection and the importance of dyadic studies of the disruption of unions.
