摘要

从事高风险性行为的女大学生,如交易性行为或无保护的性行为,有资格获得艾滋病毒暴露前和暴露后预防(PrEP/PEP)。本研究旨在确定乌干达一所公立大学女学生使用PEP和PrEP的情况及其相关性。我们对马凯雷雷大学的483名女学生进行了一项在线调查,发现53%的人有过性行为,初次性行为的中位数为20年(四分位数范围为18至22年)。总体而言,20%的人与艾滋病毒感染者或身份不明的人发生过性关系,9%的人遭受过性侵犯。尽管有32%的人有资格获得PEP, 20%的人有资格获得PrEP,但吸收率仍然很低(分别为9%和2%)。PEP的使用与已婚/同居以及感知到的艾滋病毒风险有关。符合条件的女学生对PrEP和PEP的接受程度较低,这突出表明学术机构需要有针对性地提高认识和提高可及性。

Correlates of HIV pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis uptake among female university students in Uganda.

Female university students engaging in high-risk sexual behaviours, such as transactional sex or unprotected sex, are eligible for HIV pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP/PEP). This study aimed to determine the uptake and correlates of PEP and PrEP use among female students at a public university in Uganda. We conducted an online survey among 483 female students at Makerere University and found that 53% had ever engaged in sexual intercourse, with a median debut of 20 years (interquartile range 18 to 22 years). Overall, 20% had sex with a person with HIV or of unknown status, and 9% experienced sexual assault. Despite 32% being eligible for PEP and 20% for PrEP, uptake remained low (9% and 2%, respectively). PEP use was associated with being married/cohabiting and perceived HIV risk. Low uptake of PrEP and PEP among eligible female students highlights the need for targeted awareness and accessibility efforts in academic institutions.
