Resumo: Objective: to estimate the prevalence and associated factors with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection in youths. Methods: cross-sectional study in two Centers for Testing and Counseling, with 279 youths from 15 to 24 years old. An anti-HIV test and a structured instrument were applied. We used bivariate analysis and logistic regression, with Bonferroni corrections, to investigate the association between the variables and the outcome. Results: the prevalence of HIV in the youth analyzed was 3.9% (Confidence interval - CI95%: 1.0-10.1). The association with the outcome of HIV was statistically significant in male youth (p=0.001), homosexuals (p<0.001), those who tested due to sexual exposure (p=0.034), perception of a high risk of acquiring HIV (p=0.002), and anal sex (p=0.004). Homosexual youth (odds ratio-OR=13.46; CI95%;1.14-15.84), with a perception of high risk of acquiring HIV (OR=18.11; CI95%: 2.28-143.69) had a higher chance of being HIV positive. Conclusion: the prevalence of HIV and associated factors in youth was ascertained. Contributions to practice: the information produced here shows evidence for those who aim to formulate policies, including health managers and workers. It can give support to the elaboration of strategies that involve perfecting preventive, coordinated actions, adjusted to behavioral contexts in the settings studied.

Métodos: estudo transversal, realizado em dois Centros de Testagem e Aconselhamento, com 279 jovens entre 15 e 24 anos. Realizou-se teste anti-HIV e aplicou-se instrumento estruturado. Empregaram-se análise bivariada e regressão logística com correção de Bonferroni para investigar a associação entre as variáveis e o desfecho sorológico. Resultados: a prevalência de HIV entre os jovens foi de 3,9% (Intervalo de confiança-IC95%: 1,0-10,1). A associação com o desfecho HIV mostrou-se estatisticamente significante entre jovens do sexo masculino (p=0,001), homossexuais (p<0,001), exposição sexual como motivo do teste (p=0,034), percepção de alto de risco de adquirir HIV (p=0,002) e prática de sexo anal (p=0,004). Jovens homossexuais (Odds ratio-OR=13,46; IC95%:1,14-15,84) e com percepção de alto risco de adquirir o HIV (OR=18,11; IC95%: 2,28-143,69) tiveram maiores chances de apresentarem resultado positivo para HIV. Conclusão: foi possível identificar a prevalência e fatores associados ao HIV em jovens. Contribuições para a prática: as informações geradas podem disponibilizar evidências aos formuladores de políticas, gestores e profissionais de saúde, e subsidiar a elaboração de estratégias que contemplem o aperfeiçoamento das ações de prevenção, coordenadas e ajustadas aos contextos comportamentais nos cenários estudados.Universidade Federal do Ceará2023-06-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/8301810.15253/2175-6783.20232483018Rev Rene; Vol. 24 (2023): Rev Rene; e83018Rev Rene; v. 24 (2023): Rev Rene; e830182175-67831517-3852reponame:Rev Rene (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)instacron:UFCporenghttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/83018/248858http://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/article/view/83018/248859Copyright (c) 2023 Rev Reneinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Juliana Kelly Batista daSantos, Jamira Martins dosRomero, Renata Olívia GadelhaNóbrega, Luciana Maria BernardoQueiroga, Rodrigo Pinheiro FernandesLeadebal, Oriana Deyze Correia PaivaNogueira, Jordana de Almeida2023-07-04T11:24:05Zoai:periodicos.ufc:article/83018Revistahttp://periodicos.ufc.br/renePUBhttp://periodicos.ufc.br/rene/oairene@ufc.br||2175-67831517-3852opendoar:2023-07-04T11:24:05Rev Rene (Online) - Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC)false
