RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the epidemiologic and behavioral characteristics of HIV among community population in Liangshan prefecture.Methods We collected social demographic,behavioral and serological information by means of the monitoring questionnaire and serological tests.Data was analyzed by using the chi-square test and logistic regression.Results From April to June of 2010 to 2015,14 092 cases of community population were selected as the study objects,with 267 cases diagnosed as HIV positive patients.The HIV positive rates were 3.24％,3.07％,1.17％,1.38％,1.42％ and 1.25％,respectively.We observed that when community population having the following characteristics as:living in Butuo country (OR=3.83),being males (OR=1.77),being Yi nationality (OR=4.40) being widowed (OR=28.57),with history of drug abuse (OR=3.71) or injecting drug use (PWID) (OR=4.92),or history of needle sharing among PWID (OR=8.53),were under higher risks for HIV infection.With histories as:having had secondary or above levels of schooling (OR=0.59),having protected sex with regular parmers (OR =0.21) and with non-regular partners (OR =0.46),they seemed to be somehow protected for getting HIV infection.Conclusion The positive HIV rates of HIV among community population in Dechang,Ningnan and Butuo varied from 0.10％ to 8.77％while the HIV transmission among general population remained challenging.
