利用社会网络方法进行招募，我们分析了预测活跃注射吸毒者（IDUs）招募HIV血清阳性网络成员的因素。注射吸毒者被要求带来毒品和性网络成员，他们在社交网络清单上描绘了这些人。297个指数参与者招募了425个网络，其中17.3%为血清阳性。大多数血清阳性成员是由报告无血清阳性风险网络成员的IDUs招募的。招募血清阳性的最强预测因子是种族，非裔美国人指数招募血清阳性的可能性是其他人的3倍以上。那些报告没有血清阳性网络成员的非裔美国人指数招募血清阳性成员的可能性是其10倍以上。这些结果表明，以活跃吸毒者为目标招募血清阳性患者是可行的，并强调了将网络方法重点放在非洲裔美国注射吸毒者网络上的公共卫生重要性。
Using a social network approach to recruitment, we analyzed the factors that predicted recruitment of an HIV seropositive network member by active injection drug users (IDUs). IDUs were asked to bring in drug and sex network members, whom they delineated on a social network inventory. The 297 index participants recruited 425 networks, of whom 17.3% were seropositive. The majority of seropositive members were recruited by IDUs who reported no seropositive risk network members. The strongest predictor of recruiting seropositives was ethnicity, with African American indexes more than 3 times more likely than others to recruit seropositives. Those African American indexes who reported that they had no seropositive network members were over 10 times more likely to recruit a seropositive. These results suggest the feasibility to target active drug users to recruit seropositives and emphasize the public health importance of focusing network approaches on the networks of African American IDUs.
