Abstract:Objective To analyze the characteristics of elderly male cases of sexually transmitted HIV-1 infection in Longgang district of Shenzhen city, and to provide corresponding coping strategies for AIDS intervention in elderly men. Methods The case data came from the Infectious Disease Surveillance System by the end of December 31, 2019. We analyzed the epidemiological characteristics of male sexually transmitted HIV-1 infection cases aged ≥ 50 years and registered in Longgang district of Shenzhen city. Results Among 756 elderly male cases of HIV-1 infection, the married accounted for 55.16% (417/756). Most of the cases came from other provinces. The cases with junior middle school education level or below accounted for 64.15% (485/756). The number of reported cases after 2010 increased significantly, and the proportion of late detection was high. Homosexual transmission accounted for 28.31% (214/756), while heterosexual transmission for 71.69% (542/756). Different reporting times (χ2=9.967, P=0.019), age (χ2=23.990, P<0.001), educational background (χ2=42.957, P<0.001), marriage (χ2=6.928, P=0.031), household registration (χ2=11.586, P=0.021), occupation (χ2=38.624, P<0.001), history of sexually transmitted diseases (χ2=29.545, P<0.001), way of discovery (χ2=137.172, P<0.001), stage of disease (χ2=6.539, P=0.011), and receiving CD4 test or not (χ2=18.268, P<0.001)showedstatistically significant differences in the constituent ratios of homosexual and heterosexual transmission. Conclusions The number of elderly male HIV-1 infection cases is increasing rapidly, and the related factors are more complicated. We should be concerned about elderly male HIV-1 infections and take necessary measures to control the spread of HIV-1 infection.
