“…Because AIDS is the most advanced clinical manifestation due to the immunodeficiency caused by HIV, both vulnerability and late diagnosis can be expressed again by the high AIDS/HIV ratio in the population over 60 years old. As shown in the results, in the same period, regardless of gender, the number of reported AIDS cases was predominantly higher than the number of HIV cases, especially in the elderly, a subgroup that presented the highest AIDS/HIV ratio in both sexes [16][17][18]23 .…”

“…Reflecting upon their infection, the participants attributed it to risk behaviors, such as use of alcohol and intravenous drugs, and engaging in unprotected sex. As regards risky sexual behaviors, some studies have shown an association between the use of alcohol/other drugs and HIV infection (Mesenburg, Wehrmeister, & Silveira, 2017;Pinho, Cabral, & Barbosa, 2017).

“…Uma pesquisa realizada com 1.222 mulheres em Pelotas, no Sul do Brasil, trouxe resultados que ratificam os achados da presente investigação, ao elencar o perfil e as vivências comportamentais de mulheres que realizaram o exame anti-HIV. Os autores constataram que 56,9% tinham companheiro fixo e 64,7% não utilizavam preservativo em suas práticas sexuais (6) . Tal fato expõe o comportamento de risco vivenciado por algumas mulheres em adquirir as ISTs (16) .…”

“…A vulnerabilidade e o modo de exposição à doença na população ocorrem de forma distinta, todavia estudos sugerem que a principal forma ainda é a relação sexual desprotegida, com prevalência expressiva em pessoas heterossexuais e no contexto de união estável. Ademais, o principal motivo apontado para não utilizar o preservativo no ato sexual é a confiança no parceiro e também a preferência pessoal em não utilizar (6)(7) . A partir das evidências reportadas pelos estudos, emanou-se a seguinte indagação: Qual o perfil sociodemográfico e clínico dos pacientes HIV positivos diagnosticados em um centro de referência em testes sorológicos?…”
