ABSTRACT

España sigue siendo uno de los países con tasas más altas deincidencia del virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH)/sidaen Europa occidental. La Comunidad de Madrid es la zona másafectada por la infección, con un total de 17.667 casos de sidahasta diciembre de 2008, lo que representa el 23,9% de loscasos registrados en toda España. En dicha comunidad se identificaroncomo áreas básicas de transmisión los distritos delsur y del norte-este, especialmente Usera, Puente de Vallecas,San Blas y Hortaleza, con una mayor prevalencia en el númerode casos de transmisión vertical. También se observó un cambiorespecto al flujo migratorio en los diferentes distritos de laciudad, coincidiendo los distritos con mayor censo de inmigrantescon un registro superior de las tasas de prevalencia de lainfección por el VIH por transmisión vertical. La prevalencia decasos de VIH por transmisión vertical se correlacionó significativamentecon el porcentaje de los inmigrantes (p= –0,544; p=0,011), personas sin estudios (p= 0,487; p= 0,025), mujeres desempleadas(p= 0,477; p= 0,029) y población con una renta percápita baja (p= –0,508; p= 0,019). Por otra parte, cabe pensarque estas zonas sur y norte-este, a su vez, pueden ser franjasimportantes para la propagación de otras enfermedades infecciosas,por lo que la presente memoria podría contribuir aldesarrollo de estrategias efectivas para la educación sobre elVIH, en cuanto a la prevención de situaciones de riesgo(AU)


Spain continues to be one of the countries with the highest HIV/AIDS incidence rates in Western Europe. The Community of Madrid is the area most affected by the infection, with a total of 17,667 cases of AIDS until December 2008, accounting for 23.9% of the cases recorded on a nation level. The south and north-eastern districts of the aforementioned Community, and especially Usera, Puente de Vallecas, San Blas and Hortaleza, were identified as basic transmission areas with a higher prevalence of cases of vertical transmission. A change was also observed with regard to the migration flow in the different districts of the city, with the districts with the highest numbers of immigrants coinciding with those with the highest recorded prevalence rates of cases of vertically transmitted HIV. The prevalence of cases of vertically transmitted HIV was significantly correlated with the percentage of migrants (p= –0.544; p=0.011), people without degrees (p= 0.487; p= 0.025), un employed women (p= 0.477; p= 0.029) and populations with a low per capitain come (p= –0.508; p= 0.019). Moreover, this leads to the thought that these south and north-eastern districts may also be important areas for the spread of other infectious diseases and, therefore, this report may contribute to the development of effective strategies for HIV education as regards the prevention of risk situations (AU)
