采用非标称方法,通过危险因素评估和血清学方法确定了魁北克省394名被监禁妇女中针头使用习惯和性行为对人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)抗体血清阳性的相对贡献。6.9%(95%可信区间[CI] = 4.6, 9.9)的参与者和13% (95% CI = 8.6, 18.6)有注射用药史的女性HIV阳性。有注射毒品使用史的妇女的HIV血清阳性可通过与血清阳性的人发生性接触或针头接触、自我报告生殖器疱疹以及有固定的性伴侣注射毒品来预测,但卖淫不能预测。非名义性检测是在矫正人群中强制性和匿名无关联检测的一种道德选择。
The relative contributions of needle use practices and sexual behaviors to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody seropositivity among 394 women incarcerated in Quebec were determined by risk factor assessment and serology with a nonnominal methodology. HIV positivity was found in 6.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 4.6, 9.9) of all participants and in 13% (95% CI = 8.6, 18.6) of women with a history of injection drug use. HIV seropositivity among women with a history of injection drug use was predicted by sexual or needle contact with a seropositive person, self-reported genital herpes, and having had a regular sexual partner who injected drugs, but it was not predicted by prostitution. Nonnominal testing is an ethical alternative to mandatory and anonymous unlinked testing among correctional populations.
