ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate HIV infection status and its influence factors in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Sichuan province.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>A face to face investigation and Syphilis and HIV serological detection were conducted among 2 783 MSM who have the insertion of oral or anal sex with men over the past year recruited by snowball sampling and respondent driven sampling methods in nine cities' Gay venues of Sichuan province. χ(2) test and logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 2 783 MSM were surveyed, of which HIV and Syphilis infection rates were 11.1% (147/2 783) , 5.3% (310/2 783) , respectively. The HIV infection rates of <20 year-old age group, 20-29 year-old age group, 30-39 year-old age group, 40-49 year-old age group, ≥ 50 year-old age group were 6.6% (15/227), 9.7% (143/1 471), 11.8% (80/679), 18.0% (53/294), 17.0% (19/112) (χ(2) = 25.91, P < 0.05). The risk of HIV infection in 30-39 year-old age group, 40-50 year-old age group,> 50 years age group were 2.05 (1.14-3.69) times, 3.24 (1.75-6.01) times, 2.60 (1.22-5.52) times respectively of the <20 years age group. The risk of HIV infection in middle school and below one was 16.5% (73/443) , higher than the high school/college education MSM (11.1% (99/891) ) and the college and higher education MSM (9.5% (138/1 446)) (χ(2) = 16.46, P < 0.05). The risk of HIV infection in High school/college education MSM were 0.64 (0.45-0.90) times of the middle school and below. The HIV infection rates of MSM who accepted a HIV test and knew the result within the last year was 8.2% (119/1 446) , lower than the group who did not accepted any HIV test (14.3% (191/1 336) ) (χ(2) = 25.81, P < 0.05). The HIV infection rates of MSM who received intervention services was 10.1% (256/2 539), lower than the group who did not receive any intervention services (22.1% (54/244) ) (χ(2) = 32.65, P < 0.05) . The HIV infection rates of Syphilis-positive MSM was 32.0% (47/147) , higher than the Syphilis-negative one (10.0% (263/2 636) ) (χ(2) = 68.06, P < 0.05). Received intervention services (OR (95%CI) was 0.52 (0.40-0.68) ) and accepted a HIV test and knew the result within the last year (OR (95%CI) was 0.52 (0.36-0.74) ) were the protective factors of HIV infection. At the same time, the syphilis infection (OR (95%CI) was 4.01 (2.73-5.88) ) were risk factors for HIV infection.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The prevalence rates of HIV infections were considered to be high among MSM in Sichuan province. The MSM of low-literacy, 30 years or older, not received any intervention services, not received any intervention services.Syphilis-positive have a greater risk of HIV infection.</p>
