To find out high-risk group and interventional strategy for prevention. Method: Cross-sectional exploratory secondary data analysis from the VCCTC and PPTCT register. Result: Of the 1348 participants, 160 (11.86%) adults were HIV seropositive. Prevalence in males and females was 9.8% and 20.7%, respectively. Among 22 (1.63%) seropositive children, transmission was vertical in 18 (81.8%). Seventy-one (88.75%) positive adult males were migratory goldsmiths working in Mumbai and other big cities. They were clustered in a particular locality (Daspur). Conclusion: Goldsmiths migrated from Daspur to big cities are the bridge populations who are responsible for higher prevalence of HIV in their families and locality. Interventional strategies targeted at this high-risk group are suggested.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1545109710361641","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,17]],"date-time":"2010-02-17T00:14:06Z","timestamp":1266365646000},"page":"74-77","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["An Observational Study of the Pattern of HIV Infection in a Specified Rural Area of India With Special Reference to Migratory Laborers"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"9","author":[{"given":"Subhalakshmi","family":"Mukhopadhyay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical College, Kolkata, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arunangshu","family":"Talukdar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Medical College, Kolkata, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"family":"Pradip Kumar Mitra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Post Graduate Medical Education and Research, Kolkata, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sambuddha","family":"Ghosh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Regional Institute of Ophthalmology, Kolkata, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dipankar","family":"Maji","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Deputy Chief Medical Officer of Health 3, Hoogly, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12038-008-0070-3"},{"key":"atypb2","unstructured":"India-HIV and AIDS statistics, 2007. www.avert.org\/indiaaids.htm.
