ABSTRACT

A survey was conducted to analyze the HIV testing status and related influencing factors of male sexually transmitted diseases(STD) patients attending 18 county-level hospitals in Shandong Province from July 2015 to August 2016. The HIV detection rate of 1 570 subjects was 77.58% (1 218/1 570), and the HIV-antibody positive rate was 0.99% (12/1 218). Compared with general hospitals patients, urinary and anorectal patients, non-sexual patients, and patients with negative attitudes toward HIV testing, patients were more likely to be tested for HIV from specialized hospitals (OR=3.74, 95%CI2.53-5.54), the skin and venereal section (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.31-2.79), the STD group (OR=2.02, 95%CI 1.34-3.03) and patients with positive attitude (OR=15.20, 95%CI10.74-21.52).
