Table 2 Results of survey-weighted analysis assessing the relationship between awareness of HIV self-testing kit and recent HIV testing: 2019–2020 Demographic and Health Survey data—Gambia

From: The association between HIV self-test awareness and recent HIV testing uptake in the male population in Gambia: data analysis from 2019–2020 demographic and health survey

 

Unadjusted ORa (95% CI)

Adjusted aORa(95% CI)

Primary analysis: Design-adjusted logistic regression using overall study populationb

2.09 [1.52;2.87]

1.76 [1.26;2.45]

Design-adjusted logistic regression using data weighted with IPW ATEc

1.65 [1.05;2.60]

1.59 [1.03;2.45]

  1. OR Odds ratio, aOR Adjusted odds ratio, CI Confidence interval. All estimates are weighted using sampling weights, sampling units and strata available in the 2019–2020 Gambia Demographic Health Survey data
  2. aAdjustment variables in multivariable logistic regression models included age, residence, marital status, education, employment status, CCKH, number of sexual partners, history of STIs, internet usage, frequency of exposure to mass media, HIV stigma and exposure to family planning methods in the last few months. STI: sexually transmitted infections
  3. bSurvey-weighted estimates from unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression using overall study population. Adjusted model discrimination and calibration: AUC = 0.69, Archer-Lemeshow (p = 0.14)
  4. cWeighted estimates from unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression using PS-weighted data. This data used inverse probability weights (IPW) estimating the average treatment effect (ATE). PS was estimated based on age, residence, marital status, education, CCKH, age at first sex, number of sexual partners, history of STIs, internet usage, frequency of exposure to mass media such as TV, newspaper and radio, HIV stigma, region, work category, bought or sell sex in the last 12 months, exposure to family planning methods through media in the last few months and wealth index
