Estimation of adherence to HAART among narcoconsumers-patients of the St.-Petersburg AIDS Center statistical models, psychological and socio-demographical factors

The article summarizes the results of the study on the adaptive potential of people living with AIDS. The statistical data collected are the basis for the development of VAART adherence models that can be of significant importance to prevent the appearance of drug-resistant HIV isolates. The detected correlations between VAART adherence and adaptive behaviors allow rational planning and development of the behavioral interventions aimed to facilitate the adaptation of HIV infected persons to the existing life situations. — Bibl. 82 items.
