背景：亲密伴侣暴力（IPV）与女性感染艾滋病毒风险之间的关系最近引起了广泛关注，但在是否存在关联以及关联程度方面有不同的结果。了解这种关系对于艾滋病毒监测和干预计划非常重要。方法：我们分析了 2008-2009 年肯尼亚人口与健康调查 (DHS) 的数据，调查对象为 1,904 名 15-49 岁的女性。采用广义线性混合模型来探索 IPV 和 HIV 患病率之间的关系，控制社会人口统计学变量，并将 DHS 调查集群、省份和种族视为随机效应。我们使用主成分分析 (PCA) 来计算每位女性的单一 IPV 分数。还评估了 HIV 风险行为对 IPV 和 HIV 之间关联的影响。结果：控制相关的社会人口统计学因素，我们发现 HIV 风险与 IPV 显着相关（P
Background: The relationship between intimate partner violence (IPV) and women's risk of HIV infection has attracted much recent attention, with varying results in terms of whether there is an association and what the magnitude of association is. Understanding this relationship is important for HIV surveillance and intervention programs.Methods: We analyzed data from the 2008-2009 Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) in Kenya, on 1,904 women aged 15-49. A generalized linear mixed model was adapted to explore the relationship between IPV and HIV prevalence, controlling for sociodemographic variables, and treating DHS survey clusters, province and ethnicity as random effects. We used principal components analysis (PCA) to calculate a single IPV score for each woman. The effect of HIV risk behaviours on the association between IPV and HIV was also assessed.Results: Controlling for relevant sociodemographic factors, we found that HIV risk was significantly associated with IPV (P
