Resumo: Objective. To describe the characteristics of female sex workers (FSW) from 12 Brazilian cities. Methods. Cross-sectional study of Biological and Behavioral Surveillance Survey (BBSS) with FSW recruited by Respondent-Driven Sampling (RDS), in 2016. HIV prevalence, sociodemographic, behavioral, and variables related to sex work were estimated by city. Chi-square test was used to compare these distributions. Results. Among 4,328 FSW, HIV prevalence was 5.3% (95%CI 4.5;6.3), ranging from 0.2% (95% CI 0.0;1.2), in Campo Grande, to 18.2 (95%CI 13.2;24.7) in Salvador.  In half of the cities, HIV prevalence in the samples was >5.0%, while Campo Grande, Brasília and Belo Horizonte had prevalence rates <1.0%. Significant differences between cities were found in the distributions according to educational level, income, workplace, starting age of sex work, and illicit drugs use. Conclusion. The characteristics of the samples in each city were distinct and have influenced local HIV prevalence.

Describir las características de las mujeres trabajadoras sexuales (MTS) de 12 ciudades brasileñas. Métodos. Estudio transversal de vigilancia biológica y conductual con MTS reclutadas por Respondent-Driven Sampling, 2016. La prevalencia del VIH, las características sociodemográficas, de comportamiento y relacionadas con la profesión se estimaron por ciudad. Se utilizó chi-cuadrado para comparar essas distribuciones. Resultados. Entre 4,328 MTS, la prevalencia del VIH fue 5.3% (IC95% 4,5;6,3), variando de 0.2% (IC95% 0,0;1,2) en Campo Grande a 18.2% (IC95% 13,2;24,7) en Salvador.  En la mitad de las ciudades, la prevalencia del VIH fue >5.0%, mientras que Campo Grande, Brasíla y Belo Horizonte tuvieron  prevalencia <1.0%. Se encontraron diferencias significativas entre las ciudades en las distribuciones de acuerdo con la  escolaridad, ingresos, lugar de trabajo, edad de inicio del trabajo sexual y uso de drogas ilícitas. Conclusión. Las características de las muestras locales fueron  diferentes e influyeron en la prevalencia local del VIH.

Métodos. Estudo transversal de vigilância biológica e comportamental com MTS recrutadas por respondent-driven sampling (RDS), em 2016. Foram estimadas, por cidade, as prevalências de HIV, características sociodemográficas, comportamentais e da profissão. Utilizou-se o teste de qui-quadrado para comparar essas distribuições. Resultados. Entre 4.328 MTS, a prevalência da infecção pelo HIV foi de 5,3% (IC95% 4,5;6,3), variando de 0,2% (IC95% 0,0;1,2) em Campo Grande, a 18,2% (IC95% 13,2;24,7) em Salvador. Em metade das cidades, a prevalência de HIV nas amostras foi >5,0%, enquanto Campo Grande, Brasília e Belo Horizonte apresentaram prevalências <1,0%. Diferenças significativas entre as cidades foram encontradas nas distribuições segundo escolaridade, renda, local de trabalho, idade de início do trabalho sexual, e uso de drogas ilícitas. Conclusão. As características das amostras em cada cidade foram distintas, e influenciaram a prevalência local de HIV.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2020-06-19info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/79510.1590/SciELOPreprints.795porhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/795/1081Copyright (c) 2020 Letícia Penna Braga, Célia Landmann Szwarcwald, Giseli Nogueira Damacenahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBraga, Letícia Penna Szwarcwald, Célia Landmann Damacena, Giseli Nogueira reponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2020-06-16T19:07:39Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/795Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2020-06-16T19:07:39SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
