Abstract:
The prevalence of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the world especially in China is still high. While vaccination strategies for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected people are well developed in developed countries, it remains unknown in China. In this paper, vaccination strategies for HIV infected persons including physical conditions, vaccination times, vaccine types, administration methods, doses, schedules, and priority to vaccinate inactivated or attenuated live vaccines were reviewed. Together with the progress of new published researches, we provided some suggestions which may be benefit for further research in China.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate drug resistance characters and risk factors among patients with virological failure taking first-line antiviral treatment with drug resistance. Monitoring drug resistance (DR) and providing strategies for ART effects. Methods In-house DR was tested to determine the subtype of HIV-1 in patients with virological failure. The study was a cohort study and subjects were patients with virological failure who emerged drug resistance for first time in 2013-2014. Patients' information was collected from the sub platform of China's legal information management system. The ratios of DR in different factors groups were analyzed using χ2 test, and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of drug resistance mutation. Results The number of patients in this study was 404. The prevalence of DR among virological failure patients taking first-line antiretroviral therapy (ART) was 53.96% (218/404). Patients with treated duration of 2-4 years were at higher DR risk (OR=1.96,95%CI:1.18-3.25). The main DR class was nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor with non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor(NRTI+NNRTI)combination, 73.39%. DR mutations distributed in NRTI associated mutations, mainly 184V(79.27%)and NNRTI associated mutations, mainly 103N(35.21%), 181C (32.39%)and 190A(26.29%). Conclusions It is important to maintain success of ART through strengthening early following up on patients after ART initiation, improving adherence to drug, delaying and controlling DR emergence in virological failure patients taking first-line antiviral treatment.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the the situation of dropout of the drug users receiving methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) and its related factors in Zhaojue County, Liangshan Prefecture. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on drug users enrolled from MMT clinics in Zhaojue County and who had only one treatment stage from January 1st, 2013 to December 31th, 2015. Descriptive method was used to describe demographic characteristics, drug use behaviors, etc. Factors affecting the situation of dropout were analyzed by survival analysis. Results A total of 301 drug users were included in this study, the average duration of the drug users receiving MMT was 14.5±10.7 months, and the median was 15.1 months. By the end of observation period, the rate of patients who withdrew from MMT was 85.38% and the rate of patients whose retention time was more than 1 year (including 1 year) was 56.48%. Cox proportional hazard regression modeling determined that the situation of dropout was associated with education level, the period of drug use, the history of injecting drug use and daily dosage (all P<0.05). Conclusions There were more than half of maintenance treatment patients adhered to the period that MMT had an effect. In the later process, corresponding measures, such as increasing daily dosage, enhancement of education, psychological counseling and behavior intervention, should be taken to prolong retention time.

Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the impact of sexual behaviors among HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) after one year of antiretroviral treatment. Methods A face-to-face questionnaire interview was administrated to collect the information about high-risk behaviors of survey objects before and after one year antiretroviral treatment. Differences in sexual behavior were assessed by using the McNemar χ2 text. Qualitative research with individual interviews was conducted to explore the factors of continuing high-risk behaviors after antiretroviral treatment. Results A total of 132 cases were investigated, with a high rate of condom use in the anal intercourse among respondents and the regular partners, 91.4% and 87.1% before and after treatment, with no statistical difference (χ2=1.500, P=0.682), anal intercourse with casual partners the condom use rate was 22.2% and 28.3% respectively before and after treatment, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.257, P=0.010). Treatment success rate of patients with unprotected anal intercourse was lower than no unprotected anal intercourse behavior, 82.4% and 95.7% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.601, P=0.032). Conclusions Among MSMs HIV-infected patients/AIDS patients after antiviral treatment a year later, there were still some of the subjects had unprotected anal intercourse with accidental sexual partners, increased the risk of HIV-resistant strains of transmission and sexually transmitted diseases risk, promotion of education and behavioral intervention for the target population should be further strengthened.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mental health status among PLWH (people living with HIV/AIDS) who had not started ART before in Guangzhou under the ART expansion era and to analyze the association between social support, social stigma and self-stigma with depression and anxiety in different time since confirmation of HIV infection, respectively. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 6 districts of Guangzhou. Data were collected on demographic characteristics, HIV-related health status, depression status, anxiety status, perceived social support, perceived social stigma and self-stigma of HIV positive participants. To investigate the influencing factors of depression and anxiety, respectively, Logistic regression analysis were applied to identify their associations. Results Of the 452 participants, the depression detection rate was 66.2%(299/452) and the anxiety detection rate was 52.9%(239/452). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that, among PLWH with less than 1 month since confirmation of HIV infection, family support(OR=0.80, 95% CI:0.63-1.00, P=0.049) and self-stigma(OR=2.15, 95% CI:1.36-2.44, P=0.001) were significantly associated with depression, significant others support(OR=0.68, 95% CI:0.53-0.87, P=0.003) and self-stigma(OR=2.31, 95% CI:1.55-3.43, P<0.001) were significantly associated with anxiety; among PLWH with 1 month or more since confirmation of HIV infection, self-stigma(OR=2.72, 95% CI:1.74-4.25, P<0.001) was significantly associated with anxiety. Conclusions Depression and anxiety are common among people living with HIV/AIDS who had not started ART in Guangzhou. Self-stigma is an important influencing factor of anxiety and depression. Different source of supports have different effect toward depression and anxiety among PLWH in different time since confirmation of HIV infection, so the social support should be targeted to provide for PLWH.

Abstract:
Objective To understand the prevalence and influential factors of human immune deficiency virus(HIV)infection among men who have sex with men(MSM) in Liuzhou City, so as to provide the evidence for HIV prevention and control. Methods Snowball sampling method was used to set up MSM cohort in the urban area of Liuzhou from June 2014, and they were followed up each six months. Blood samples were taken from these MSM to detect antibodies of HIV. Results Baseline and three followers were recruited for 1 369 MSM. We successively completed the first follow-up (158 cases), the second follow-up (126 cases), and the third follow-up (74 cases). MSMs' knowledge of HIV/AIDS increaseed with the rise as the number of follow-up(χ2=7.698,P=0.006).Condom usage in the latest commercial anal sex (χ2=7.510,P=0.006) and anal same-sex sexual behavior (χ2=5.005,P=0.025) were in rising trend. Multifactorial Cox regression analysis showed that higher scores of HIV/AIDS related knowledge(OR=0.119,95% CI:0.021-0.686,P=0.017)and less drug use in the last 6 months (OR=0.036,95% CI:0.006-0.212,P<0.001), the risk of HIV infections was lower. Conclusions It is important to strengthen AIDS knowledge propaganda among MSM, raise the rate of AIDS related knowledge and the frequency of using comdom, reduce the drug use in order to curb the spread of AIDS in the MSM.

Abstract:
Objective To understand the Human Papillomavirus(HPV) infection status among different sex role of men who have sex with men(MSM) and to analyze relevant risk factors. Methods A total of 704 MSM were recruited by using the"snowballing"sampling method from March 2016 to April 2017 in Urumqi. Data on the demographic and sexual behavioral characteristics of MSM were collected by questionnaires. The cells in anal canal were collected and the 37-type HPV test kits were used for identification and classification. Results The previous anal HPV infection rate of MSM was 50.4%, of which the overall and low-risk HPV infection rate in "0" sex role group and "1" sex role group was different, namely, 54.6%,18.8% and 45.6%, 11.9% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that sometimes using condoms when having anal sex and homosexual commercial sex in nearly six months was the risk factor for HPV infection in "0" sex role group(all P<0.05), while having homosexual commercial sex in nearly six months was the risk factor for HPV infection in "1" sex role group(OR=3.04,95% CI:1.21-7.62, P=0.018). Conclusions The anal HPV infection rate between "0" sex role group and "1" sex role group was different. In view of risk factors, MSM should urge sexual partners adhere to using condoms and avoid commercial sex.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the late diagnosis (LD) status and its influencing factors of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Nanjing from 2011 to 2015. Methods Newly identified HIV/AIDS in Nanjing from 2011 to 2015 were selected from the National HIV/AIDS comprehensive information system. Chi-square test was used for trend analysis on LD rate and multivariate Logistic regression was conducted to test the factors associated with LD. Results From 2011 to 2015, the prevalence of LD were 32.0%, 30.5%, 32.5%, 29.6% and 30.9%, without a decreasing trend(χ2=0.255, P=0.614). The LD rate among cases found by voluntary counseling and testing increased significantly from 14.0% in 2011 to 21.4% in 2015 and the LD rate among cases found from medical institution decreased significantly from 53.4% to 47.4% in the same period. Multiple Logistic regression analysis indicated that those who were married (aOR=1.628,95% CI:1.306-2.028), aged over 64 (aOR=4.563,95% CI:2.502-8.320), didn't live in Nanjing(aOR=2.041,95% CI:1.683-2.475), infected via heterosexual transmission(aOR=1.279,95% CI:1.040-1.572), found from medical institutions (aOR=2.791,95% CI:2.280-3.416) were more likely to be diagnosed lately. Conclusions Given a high prevalence of LD among newly reported HIV/AIDS in Nanjing from 2011 to 2015, more efforts are urgently needed to promote medical institutions to carry out PITC, as well as expand HIV counseling and testing targeted key populations, so as to promote the early detection of HIV.

Abstract:
Objective To understand the status and associated factors with late human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosis among HIV/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients detected via HIV testing for persons seeking medical care for illness (HTPSMCI) and HIV testing for other types of person (HTOTP) in Liuzhou City. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted to eligible subjects who were newly diagnosed with HIV infection between January 2009 and June 2010 in Liuzhou City. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors associated with late HIV diagnosis among HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI and HTOTP respectively. Results The prevalence of late HIV diagnosis among 839 HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI and HTOTP were 83.8% and 62.7% respectively and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=48.765, P<0.001). Among HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI, the participants at age of 16-39 years, female, unmarried, and injection drug transmission route accounted for 37.3%, 22.8%, 15.3% and 5.0%, which were lower than HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTOTP (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that risk factors of late HIV diagnosis among HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI included heterosexual contact, regular heterosexual partner and casual heterosexual partner prior to HIV diagnosis, and annual household income ≥ 15 000 Yuan was a protective factor. The results also showed that risk factors associated with late HIV diagnosis among HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTOTP was older age. Conclusions The prevalence of late HIV diagnosis among HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI and HTOTP are both high. Moreover, there are some differences in demographic characteristics and risk factors of late HIV/AIDS diagnosis patients detected via HTPSMCI and HTOTP, which suggested that it is essential to promote appropriate interventions to detect HIV infections earlier targeting the demographic characteristics of HIV/AIDS patients detected via HTPSMCI and HTOTP.

Face to face questionnaire was used to get the information as risk behaviors before and after inform HIV infection. Results A total of 498 males and 490 females were recruited; 39.88% (male 68.67%, female 10.61%) of the cases had business sexual behaviors before informing HIV infection in the near one year, there was significant difference between genders (χ2=352.797,P<0.001).The site centralized in the street sides. Persistent condom using rate was only 8.38%;71.36% (male 64.46%,female 78.37%)had temporary sexual behavior, there was significant difference between genders (χ2=23.379,P<0.001). 82.52% were among the friends/acquaintances. The multiple and cross sexual behavior existed. 12.96% of those informed infected cases still insisted unprotected high risk sexual behaviors. Only 31.86% of them were willing to tell the sexual partners their infection status. Conclusions Heterosexual HIV/AIDS transmission population is enlarging. The strategy should transfer into strengthen high-risk population intervention, and advocate universal condom use. Sexual responsibilities, sexual health and sexual safety propaganda should be added as well. The spread risk assessment of the HIV/AIDs in the follow-up management should be included and steps should be taken accordingly.

Abstract:
Objective To acquaint the occurrence, post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and prognostic follow-up of occupational exposure to HIV from 2010 to 2015 in Dehong Prefecture in Yunnan Province, so as to provide reference for carrying out and tightening the protection work of occupational exposure to HIV. Methods The CDC of Dehong Prefecture collected total occupational HIV exposure cases from 2004 to 2015, which then were put into pooling and statistical analysis. Results From 2010 to 2015, a total of 323 cases of occupational HIV exposure occurred and none suffered HIV infection, of whom 220 (68.11%) were females, of whom 229 (70.90%) were less than 35 years old, and of whom 209 (64.71%) were health care workers. needle or other sharp instrument sticking occupied the most proportion of 72.14% (233/323). Medical facilities were the main areas where the occupational HIV exposure occurred (82.66%, 267/323). After exposure to HIV, total 323 immediately washed or disinfected skin or mucous membranes whereas 279 had received post-exposure prophylaxis(PEP), 156 of 279 completed the 28-day course. The cases of occupational HIV exposure differed largely. Conclusions Insisting on the principle of universal protection, employing timely and emergent treatment and PEP after exposure assessment are helpful for avoiding and reducing HIV infection due to occupational exposure.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the social demographic characteristics and the risk factors of HIV-positive population from Xuhui voluntary counseling and testing (VCT) from 2008 to 2015, and compare the differences of infectious routes, CD4 counts and progression of disease between two groups of patients who were detected from VCT and general hospitals. Methods Cross-sectional study was conducted to describe the relative information of HIV-positive population from VCT. The VCT group and the hospital group were established and the relative data of two groups was collected for retrospective study and comparison. Results Among VCT-positive population, the ratio between male and female was 21.09:1. 48. 97% of the patients were among the age of 20 to 29. 71.60% were unmarried, and 67.49% had the college degree or higher education level. The groups, who were men who have sex with men (MSM), or with the age <20 or ≥ 50, or divorced and widowed, or with lower education level, had higher positive rates. The percentage of homosexual transmission in VCT group was higher than that of hospital group. The median values of the first CD4 test were 360 cells/μl and 293 cells/μl. The median values of incubation period were 2 115 days and 942 days. Conclusions Most of the positive patients from Xuhui VCT are young, unmarried MSM population with higher education level. Those high-risk subgroups, such as young students, elderly population, lower education level groups, divorced or widowed population, should be paid close attention. The advantage of early discovery of HIV patients from VCT is obviously higher than that of general hospital.

Abstract:
Objective To determine the related risk factors influencing incidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among drug users(DUs) in Yunnan Province and to provide scientific reference for the prevention and control of acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS). Methods HIV-1 antibody positive serum samples of DUs from drug abuse sentinel sites in Yunnan Province during 2013 to 2015 were collected and tested by BED-capture enzyme immunoassay (BED-CEIA). Questionnaires including demographic and behavioral characteristics were performed among DUs to analyze HIV infection risk factors. Results In 31 503 samples, 3 424 were HIV-1 antibody positive(including 2 793 previous infections) and the positive rate was 10.9%(3 424/31 503).Male and female DUs accounted for 87.3% (2 989/3 424) and 12.7% (435/3 424) respectively. Of total 598 new reported HIV cases, 101 new infections were detected by BED-CEIA, among which 90 (89.1%) were male and 11(10.9%) were female with an average age of 31.54 years old (16-54). HIV-1 incident rate among DUs was 0.53% from 2013 to 2015. The result of multivariate Logistic regression analyses showed that new infection risk among participants with the foreign nationality(Myanmar), non-Han nationality and injection drug use was significantly higher than that among participants with registered permanent residence in or not in Yunnan Province,Han nationality and oral drug use (all P<0.05). Conclusions More attention should be paid to DUs with foreign nationality(Myanmar),non-Han nationality and injection drug use. Comprehensive intervention measures including community maintenance treatment, peer education and HIV testing and counseling should be taken to reduce HIV-1 new infection rate.

Abstract:
Objective To obtain the infection prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)and hepatitis C virus(HCV) among Chinese injecting drug users (IDUs), and to estimate the associated risk factors of HIV/HCV(hepatitis C virus) infection. Methods Literatures on HIV and HCV infection among Chinese IDUs were collected with search strategies, data were abstracted to create the database and the meta-analysis were conducted. Results Prevalence of HIV among IDUs was 7.00% (95% CI:6.10%-8.00%), and the prevalence of HCV was 67.10% (95% CI:61.00%-73.20%). Subgroup analysis indicated that both of HIV and HCV prevalence were different among different groups of regions, types of population and periods. Single factor meta-regression indicated HCV infection was the major associated factors of HIV prevalence, and HIV prevalence in high HCV infection group was higher than it in low HCV infection group. Conclusions The prevalence of HIV and HCV were high among Chinese IDUs, and HIV prevalence was closely related to HCV prevalence. HCV prevalence could be used as a predictor of HIV prevalence among IDUs.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the biological regulation and key proteins of brain tissue gene expression gene data in HIV-related neurocognitive disorder (HAND) patients, and to provide a new theoretical basis for HAND prevention and intervention. Methods Microarray gene chip data of brain tissue were downloaded from gene expression omnibus (GEO) public database including New York HAND patients (14 cases) and non-patients (7 cases), and the differential expression genes were imported into the analysis software gene-cloud of biotechnology informs (GCBI) experimental platform, GenClip 2.0 and Sytoscape 3.5.1. Exploring expression of protein interaction network, biological pathway, and the molecular mechanism of the development of HAND from the perspective of transcriptions. Results Compared with the control group, there were 780 (1.43%) differentially expressed genes between the two groups. The difference gene was mainly associated with immune response regulation, anti-infective, antiviral, cell signaling and synaptic transmission. LYN and RPS4Y1 genes are the key nodes of the protein-protein interaction network. DNM1, FLT1, NOTCH3, LYN, ISG15 and RPS4Y1 were the key expression genes. The DNM1, FLT1 and NOTCH3 genes were lower in the HAND group, while LYN, ISG15 and RPS4Y1 gene was highly expressed, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions There were 780 differentially expressed genes in HAND patients and non-patients. LYN and RPS4Y1 genes are the core nodes of protein network and are highly expressed in brain tissue of HAND patients. The function mainly includes immune response, immune regulation, anti-infection, anti-virus and other biological functions.

Abstract:
This systematic review aims to provide with information for the future clinical trials of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) preventive vaccine in China on the phaseⅡ/Ⅲ clinical trials of HIV preventive vaccines worldwide. Related literatures were collected by the joint use of medical subject headings (Mesh) and free terms from Medline. The types of vaccination, research subjects, immunogenicity and the efficacy of the clinical trials were sorted out and analyzed. According to the inclusive and exclusive criteria, total twenty five literatures were selected. There were more and more various types and the strategies of the vaccination with stronger immunogenicity, yet RV144 was the only clinical trial with significant efficacy. Based on the previous worldwide researches' findings, while many types of HIV preventive vaccines have been developed, there is still the need to explore potential candidates for HIV has various mutation, and there are confusions about protective immune response to HIV and pre-immune response to viral vectors effecting the vaccine efficacy. According to the previous experiences, it is necessary to target the local epidemic HIV genotypes, to apply the regimens of multiple vaccines and to investigate the HIV incidence rate, follow-up rate and willing-to-participate rate of high-risk populations in advance if large clinical trials of HIV preventive vaccines will be conducted in China.
