在泰国的人类免疫缺陷病毒1型(HIV-1)感染的流行病,使估计的概率,女性对男性的HIV-1的传播,每次性接触,在一项研究中的1115 21岁的男性应征入伍者,其中77(6.9%)是HIV-1血清阳性,与妓女的性行为被确定为HIV-1的主要模式。传输通过一个数学模型,包括应征者首次性接触的年龄、与妓女发生性行为的频率和原籍省份的数据,以及各省特异性妓女的HIV-1血清阳性率,我们估计每次性接触传播HIV-1的概率为0.031(95%置信限[CL] 0.025-0.040)。考虑到自我报告的接触频率的随机误差,估计值为0.056(95% CL 0.041-0.075)。在有性传播疾病史的男性中,传播概率明显更高,这些估计数大大高于北美的类似估计数。这种高的异性性传播概率有助于解释HIV-1在泰国以及其他HIV-1传播主要是异性性传播的国家中的快速传播。
The epidemic of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in Thailand has allowed an estimate to be made of the probability of female-to-male HIV-1 transmission per sexual contact.In a study of 1115 21 year-old male military conscripts, of whom 77 (6.9%) were HIV-1 seropositive, sex with female prostitutes was identified as the principal mode of HIV-1. transmission. With a mathematical model including data on conscript's age at first sexual contact, frequency of sex with female prostitutes, and province of origin; as well as province-specific HIV-1 seroprevalence of prostitutes, we estimated the probability of HIV-1 transmission per sexual contact to be 0.031 (95% confidence limits [CL] 0.025-0.040). Allowing for random error in the self-reported frequency of contacts, the estimate was 0.056 (95% CL 0.041-0.075). The transmission probability was significantly greater among men with a history of sexually-transmitted diseases.These estimates are substantially higher than analogous estimates made in North America. This high per-act probability of heterosexual transmission helps to explain the rapid spread of HIV-1 in the emerging epidermic in Thailand and perhaps in other countries where HIV-1 transmission is predominately heterosexual.
