在过去10年中，艾滋病毒已成为一种可以使用抗逆转录病毒药物进行有效管理的疾病。然而，许多因素会影响依从性，包括人口统计学，收入，住房，心理健康问题和获得医疗保健，以及社会支持的类型和质量。本文总结了一个更大的，随机研究的艾滋病毒/艾滋病患者的药物依从性的一部分，社会支持的具体来源的结果。结果总结了98名计划参与者的调查结果，包括有关合作伙伴，家庭和医疗保健提供者的支持信息，以及这些来源对药物依从性的支持的影响。在这项研究的参与者中，那些来自伴侣的社会支持水平较高的人表现出更高的药物依从性。然而，那些从家庭获得更多社会支持的人报告的依从率明显较低。这些结果表明，努力提高服药依从性需要解决不同类型的社会支持网络的人诊断为艾滋病毒/艾滋病。(C)出版社：The Haworth Press，Inc.

In the last 10 years HIV has become a disease that can be effectively managed using antiretroviral medications. However, many factors affect adherence, including demographics, income, housing, mental health issues, and access to health care, as well as types and quality of social support. This paper summarizes results regarding specific sources of social support that are part of a larger, randomized study of medication adherence among people with HIV/AIDS. Results summarize findings from 98 program participants and include information regarding support from partners, family and health care providers, as well as the impact of support from these sources on medication adherence. Among participants in this study, those with higher levels of social support from partners demonstrated higher rates of medication adherence. Those who received more social support from their families, however, reported significantly lower adherence rates. These results suggest that efforts to improve medication adherence need to address the diverse types of social support networks of people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS. (C) 2007 by The Haworth Press, Inc.
