Abstract:Objective To investigate the follow-up testing of surviving HIV infected persons/AIDS patients in Nanning City, Guangxi Province, and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods The data were collected from the history cards of the reported cases by the end of December 31st, 2015 downloaded from the National HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information Management System. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors. Results A total of 10,478 HIV/AIDS surviving patients in Nanning City, Guangxi Province were cumulatively reported, and the follow-up testing rate in 2015 was 81.5%. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, marital status, nationality, educational background, occupation, stage of disease, route of infection, sample source, area type and antiviral therapy were related to the patients’ follow-up testing (P<0.01). Logistic regression indicated that homosexual contact infection (OR=1.960, 95%CI:1.541-2.492), maternal-neonatal transmission (OR=2.713, 95%CI:1.959-3.758), AIDS stage (OR=1.614, 95%CI: 1.426-1.826), having antiviral therapy (OR=7.831, 95%CI: 6.953-8.819) were the protective factors for the follow-up testing(P<0.001), while the area type being cities other than Naning in Guangxi Province or being areas from other provinces (OR=0.661, 95%CI:0.588-0.744) was the risk factor(P<0.001). Conclusions The follow-up testing rate of HIV infected persons/AIDS patients in Nanning City, Guangxi Province is low. The area type being cities other than Naning in Guangxi Province or being areas from other provinces is the main factor influencing the follow-up testing rate. The HIV/AIDS patients with the infection route of homosexual contact, maternal-neonatal transmission, AIDS stage and antiviral treatment have a better adherence to the follow-up testing. It is necessary to further strengthen the communication and management of the population with low follow-up testing rate, especially the cases from floating population; meanwhile, the targeted measures according to the characteristics of different populations should be taken to further improve the quality of follow-up management and effectively control the spread of AIDS.
