ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the clinical application value of Provider-Initiated HIV Testing and Counseling (PITC) by analyzing the positive rate of HIV tests for people in need of PITC and that of routine HIV tests.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We retrospectively analyzed the demographic and epidemiologic data about the patients seeking PITC services or undergoing routine HIV tests in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital between January and December 2013.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The positive rate of initial HIV screening was 1.98% in the PITC group and 0.24% in the routine test group, while that of confirmed HIV was 0. 40% in the former and 0.07% in the latter, both with statistically significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.01). The positive rate of HIV was markedly higher in males than in females, particularly in the PITC group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>PITC has a high clinical value in HIV detection for targeted subjects and therefore deserves general application in dermatology.</p>
