Abstract:
Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of newly reported HIV infections in Chinese and Burmese residents during 2012-2016 in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan province (Dehong) and to provide evidence for the development of related programs on prevention and control.Methods All the HIV infections who were newly reported during 2012-2016 in Dehong,were recruited as the study subjects,with epidemiological characteristics of the cases analyzed by using the software SPSS 22.0.Results A total of 5 692 HIV infections were newly reported between 2012 and 2016 (including 5 592 in this study),in which the Chinese patients accounted for 43.3％ (2 419) and the rest 56.7％ (3 173) were Burmese.Differences in age,gender and other social characteristics of these newly reported HIV infections were statistically significant between the Chinese and the Burmese (all p-values ＜0.05).Most cases were males and between the age of 20-49 years old.Other characteristics of the patients would include:having had primary school education,married,being farmers,and with CD4+ T cells counts ≥350 cells/μl.HIV infection was mainly transmitted through sexual contact among the Chinese patients but through injecting drug use among the Burmese patients.Conclusions Epidemiological characteristics of the newly reported HIV infections were different between the Chinese and the Burmese,between 2012 and 2016 in Dehong.Targeted prevention and control programs should be taken.
