Formation of HIV-infected models based on epidemiological monitoring data

HIV infection epidemiological monitoring, taking into account gender, age, infection routes, social features of patients, plays a key role in the formation of prevention programs. Epidemiological monitoring data make it possible to form a model of a person with a risk of infection higher than the average for the population. To identify this group, the authors proposed the term “Potential HIV-Infected”. In this study, based on the data of the epidemiological history of medical records (form No. 357/U) of the AIDS Center of the Republic of Tatarstan, the HIV infection monitoring information and analytical system “Aidsnet”, the Federal HIV Infection Register, we carried out a retrospective analysis of data obtained from the epidemiological monitoring of HIV infection cases in the Republic of Tatarstan for 2015 - 2019; we assessed the struc- ture of patients with an established diagnosis of HIV infection, including by transmission routes, stidued gender structure, risk groups, foreign and domestic literature sources on this infectious disease, as well as analyzed the alleged epidemiological risks. The data obtained indicate the involvement of the general population in the epidemic process of HIV infection in recent years, the need to strengthen preventive work, using effective communication tools with various groups of people included both in the “Potential HIV-Infected” risk group and the general population
