摘要

导言:男男性行为者(MSM)属于关键人群,尽管尼日利亚正在实施艾滋病预防计划,但他们仍是人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)/获得性免疫缺陷综合症(AIDS)的高负担人群。本研究评估了尼日利亚阿夸伊博姆州男男性行为者感染艾滋病毒/艾滋病的风险因素:本研究是从阿夸伊博姆州三个行政区选出的 400 名男男性行为者进行的横断面研究。使用 23 版服务解决方案统计软件包分析数据。研究使用了描述性统计、相对风险和二元逻辑回归来比较男男性行为者中风险因素与艾滋病毒/艾滋病之间的比例:一半以上(50.5%)的受访者年龄在 20-29 岁之间。超过 66% 的受访者在 13-19 岁年龄段首次接触 MSM。50%的受访者喜欢在没有保护措施的情况下与男性同胞发生性关系。约 99%的受访者有多个性伴侣。超过 72% 的受访者有群交行为。约 64%的受访者在性爱前使用曲马多。超过一半(54%)的受访者曾共用注射针头。平均來說,97% 的受訪者在過去 3 個月曾進行性交易。在 400 名受访者中,有 11.8%的人艾滋病毒检测呈阳性。在所研究的 MSM 中,风险因素与艾滋病毒之间存在明显关联:阿夸伊博姆州的男男性行为者都有高风险行为,因此强烈建议针对每种特定的风险开展降低风险计划。

Risk factors of HIV/AIDS among men who have sex with men in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.

Introduction: Men who have sex with men (MSM) belong to the key population group which contributes to the high burden of human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) despite the ongoing HIV prevention programs in Nigeria. The current study assessed the risk factors of HIV/AIDS among men who have sex with men in Akwa-Ibom State, Nigeria.

Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study of 400 men who have sex with men selected from three senatorial zones in Akwa Ibom. A statistical package for service solution version 23 was used to analyze the data. Descriptive statistics, Relative risk and Binary logistic regression were used to compare proportions between risk factors and HIV/AIDS among the MSM.

Results: More than half (50.5%) of the respondents were between the ages of 20-29 years. Above 66% of the respondents made their debut into MSM at the age bracket of 13-19 years. 50% of the respondents preferred unprotected sex with fellow men. About 99% of the respondents have multiple sexual partners. More than 72% of the respondents had engaged in group sex. About 64% of the respondents use tramadol before sex. Greater than half (54%) of the respondents have shared injection needles. Averagely, 97% of the respondent engaged in transactional sex in the past 3 months. 11.8% of the 400 respondents tested positive for HIV. There was a significant association between risk factors and HIV among the MSM studied.

Conclusions: MSM in Akwa Ibom State engage in high-risk behaviors, therefore, a risk reduction program targeted at each specific identified risk is highly recommended.
