为了告知健康信息目标,我们使用 2577 名 HIV 阴性 MSM 的横断面数据来识别访问类似来源的男性群体。 线下,更多的男性报告与医生谈论艾滋病毒,而不是与男性发生性行为。 参加安全性行为研讨会的男性不到一半。 在线,男性主要通过互联网搜索引擎、GLBT 网站或健康网站寻求信息。 潜在类别分析确定了四组健康寻求者:仅访问在线资源的健康寻求者、主要从卫生专业人员寻求信息的人和从不同来源寻求信息的人最少的健康寻求者(占样本的 9%)是最受关注的群体 他们与多个伴侣进行无保护的肛交,但很少检测艾滋病毒或寻求性健康信息 通过鼓励从不同来源寻求健康,有机会增加男性对艾滋病毒/性传播感染预防的了解,并在必要时获得医疗护理
To inform health information targeting, we used cross-sectional data from 2577 HIV-negative MSM to identify groups of men who access similar sources Offline more men reported talking to a physician about HIV than about having sex with men fewer than half attended a safer sex workshop Online, men sought information primarily through Internet search engines, GLBT websites, or health websites A latent class analysis identified four groups of health seekers minimal health seekers those who accessed online sources only, those who sought information mostly from health professionals, and those who sought information from diverse sources Minimal health seekers, 9% of the sample, were the group of greatest concern They engaged in unprotected anal sex with multiple partners but infrequently testing for HIV or sought sexual health information By encouraging health seeking from diverse sources, opportunities exist to increase men's knowledge of HIV/STI prevention and, when necessary, access to medical care
