简要总结
Objectives
- To determine the uptake of universal HIV testing among Thai men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TG)
- To determine the uptake of antiretroviral treatment (ART) regardless of CD4 count among Thai MSM/TG who test positive for HIV
Subject population:. Men or transgender women who have sex with men,Thai nationals, age ≥18 years old, Have engaged in anal intercourse with a man without using a condom at least one time in the last 6 months or have had at least 3 male sex partners in the last 6 months,Not known to be HIV-positive (either have never been tested for HIV or have had a previous negative HIV test)
Number of participants:2000 Thai MSM and TG with approximately 76%-90% in Bangkok, 5%-12% in Lampang and 5-12% in Ubonratchathani.
详细描述
All participants will receive HIV testing at baseline. The frequency of study visits to determine HIV status in HIV-negative participants will be every 6 months for a total follow up time of 24 months. Once HIV-positive status is confirmed, participants will be offered ART immediately regardless of CD4 count. Those who accept ART will be seen more frequently following ART initiation, at 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 2 months, 3 months and every 3 months thereafter until completion of 24 months of follow-up. Those who deny immediate ART will have clinic visits every 6 months to monitor HIV disease. HIV-negative participants will be asked to come for HIV re-testing every 6 months or sooner if they feel exposed to risk
