- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: A significant proportion of Female Sex Workers (FSWs) as a vulnerable population begin selling
sex at an early age, which may lead the person to develop sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Thus, this study seeks to identify the factors which influence the age of first
sex for sale among the Iranian FSWs.
Methods: In 2010, 872 FSWs from 21 centers in 12 Iranian provinces were selected through multistage
sampling and were interviewed individually by a standard questionnaire. Survival analysis of interval
censored data was used to investigate factors which influence the age of first selling sex. The collected data
were analyzed using Weibull parametric model and the hazard ratio (HR) index was reported. The software
employed in this study was R version 3.4.2 and icenReg package was used.
Findings: The mean age of first selling sex was 24.94 ± 7.34 years. About 22% of the participants started to
sell sex before the age of 18. The risk of experiencing the first selling sex was 23% higher in those individuals
who had experienced alcohol consumption (HR = 1.23) and 51% higher in those who had drug injections
(HR = 1.51). Also, age, education, and marital status were significant variables.
Conclusion: In order to cope with the issue of first selling sex at an early age, the following strategies are
suggested: providing necessary trainings and building culture about the dangers of alcohol consumption and
drug injections, poverty reduction, facilitating education and marriage for young females, and combating sex
trafficking

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Background: Buprenorphine sublingual tablets are now available in Iran for opioid detoxification in clinics. Aim of the present study was to compare the efficiency of buprenorphine with buprenorphine/naloxone in short-term detoxification in a group of Iranian male opioid-dependent patients. Methods:A double-blind trial was carried out on a group of male opioid dependent patients in a psychiatric hospital in Kerman, Iran, during year 2017. A group of 100 men who met the diagnostic criteria for opiate dependence were included in the study from individuals who had referred for detoxification. They were allocated to the two groups receiving either buprenorphine (n = 51) or buprenorphine/naloxone (n = 49). Severity of withdrawal symptoms and signs were evaluated by Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS) and Adjective Rating Scale for Withdrawal (ARSW). Findings: The mean scores of COWS and ARSW in the two groups treated with buprenorphine and buprenorphine/naloxone significantly reduced from the first day to the fifth day of detoxification
(P < 0.050). Moreover, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of objective and subjective symptom reduction (P > 0.050). Conclusion: Buprenorphine/naloxone is as effective as buprenorphine in controlling opiate withdrawal symptoms.- انتشار مقاله: 23-02-1398
