Abstract
Despite the prevalence of HIV among transgender women (TGW), gaps exist in understanding the impact of HIV-related stigma (HRS) on TGW with HIV. This is a small cross-sectional pilot study examining HRS in TGW (n=18) with HIV in Miami, FL, who completed a survey during an HIV clinical visit. In contrast with previous studies, results demonstrated low levels of HRS and suggest the potential of increasing acceptance of TGW with HIV as a contributing factor. Larger studies are needed to explore factors underlying HRS with the aim of further reducing stigma among TGW with HIV.
尽管艾滋病毒在变性女性（TGW）中很普遍，但在了解艾滋病毒相关污名（HRS）对感染艾滋病毒的变性女性的影响方面仍存在差距。这是一项小型横断面试点研究，研究对象是佛罗里达州迈阿密市的变性女性艾滋病感染者（18 人），她们在艾滋病临床就诊期间填写了一份调查问卷。与之前的研究相比，研究结果表明，HRS 水平较低，并表明对感染 HIV 的 TGW 的接受度可能会提高，这也是导致 HIV 感染的一个因素。还需要进行更大规模的研究，以探讨HRS的潜在因素，从而进一步减少感染艾滋病毒的女性同性恋者的耻辱感。
