Abstract

Study of the peculiarity of HIV spread, first of all in the cities led to the formulation of syndemic concept — mutually enhancing set of social, behavioral and biological characteristics of which most frequently mentioned is a combination of substance abuse, victimization (experience of violence) and presence of HIV-infection or AIDS (SAVA syndrome). The prevalence of this syndemic is not studied in detail in Russian Federation.The goal of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence of this syndrome and its components among injecting drug users in six cities in the Russian Federation.Results and discussion. The summary prevalence of the full SAVA was 12,3% (95% CI=10,0–14,.6%), but there were significant differences between cities especially between St. Petersburg and Krasnoyarsk (18,9% vs 6,7%, р=0,031). Prevalence of incomplete SAVA syndrome (without the mandatory presence of HIV/AIDS) was 66,0% (95% CI=62,4–69,6%) the and majority of respondents (96,8%) had up to 4 SAVA components. There were no statistically significant differences in SAVA prevalence depending on gender. SAVA is relatively highly prevalent among IDU in participating cities and does not relate to respondents’ gender.

俄罗斯联邦六个城市注射吸毒者药物滥用、暴力和艾滋病毒/艾滋病综合征的流行率

对艾滋病毒传播特性的研究，首先是在城市中，导致了综合征概念的形成——一组相互增强的社会、行为和生物学特征，其中最常提到的是药物滥用、受害（暴力经历）和艾滋病毒感染或艾滋病（SAVA综合征）的存在。俄罗斯联邦没有详细研究这种综合征的流行情况。本研究的目的是评估俄罗斯联邦六个城市注射吸毒者中这种综合征的患病率及其组成部分。结果和讨论。完整SAVA的总患病率为12,3%（95%CI=10,0-14,6%），但城市之间存在显著差异，尤其是圣彼得堡和克拉斯诺亚尔斯克之间（18,9%vs 6,7%，р=0031）。不完全性SAVA综合征（未强制存在HIV/AIDS）的患病率为66.0%（95%CI=62,4-69.6%），大多数受访者（96,8%）具有多达4种SAVA成分。SAVA患病率随性别的不同没有统计学上的显著差异。SAVA在参与城市的IDU中相对较高，与受访者的性别无关。
