| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS Qg1R0xdW. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. Experiences of partner violence were compared between HIV-positive and HIV-negative women. Methods. Of 340 women enrolled, 245 (72%) were followed and interviewed 3 months after HIV testing to estimate the prevalence and identify the correlates of violence. Results. The odds of reporting at least 1 violent event was significantly higher among HIV-positive women than among HIV-negative women (physical violence odds ratio [OR]=2.63 ; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.23,5.63 ; sexual violence OR=2.39 ; 95% CI=1,21,4.73). Odds of reporting partner violence was 10 times higher among younger (<30 years) HIV-positive women than among younger HIV-negative women (OR=9.99 ; 95% CI=2.67,37.37). Conclusions. Violence is a risk factor for HIV infection that must be addressed through multilevel prevention approaches. |
