This study was to investigate the prevalence of behavioral intention to initiate ART among HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) with CD4 levels &gt;350 cells\/mm\n                    <jats:sup>3<\/jats:sup>\n                    , who had just become eligible to receive free ART in China. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 262 eligible HIV-infected MSM who had never received ART. The theory of planned behavior (TPB) was used to guide the variable selection. The prevalence of behavioral intention to initiate ART was 69.9%. After adjusting for significant background variables, all five constructs of TPB were significantly associated with behavioral intention to initiate ART. These significant constructs were: positive attitudes (adjusted odds ratios, AOR: 1.14; 95% CI [1.06, 1.24]) and negative attitudes (AOR: 0.89; 95% CI [0.82, 0.97]) toward immediate ART initiation; perceived their significant others would support them to initiate ART immediately (perceived subjective norm; AOR: 1.14; 95% CI [1.03, 1.25]); perceived high proportion of PLWH having similar CD4 cell levels were on ART (perceived descriptive norm; AOR: 2.22, 95% CI [1.16, 4.24]); and being confident in initiating ART immediately (perceived behavioral control; AOR: 1.21; 95% CI [1.04, 1.39]). Prevalence of behavioral intention to initiate ART was high among this group of MSM. Effective health promotion is needed to translate behavioral intention into related action. TPB may be a useful framework for developing future health promotion increasing ART coverage in this group.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1557988319828615","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,6]],"date-time":"2019-02-06T05:58:21Z","timestamp":1549432701000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Behavioral Intention to Initiate Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) Among Chinese HIV-Infected Men Who Have Sex With Men Having High CD4 Count in the Era of \u201cTreatment for All\u201d"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Xueying","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health Behaviours Research, JC School of Public Health and Primary Care, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China"},{"name":"Beijing Chaoyang Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zixin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health Behaviours Research, JC School of Public Health and Primary Care, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China"},{"name":"Shenzhen Research Institute, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaodong","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Chengdu Tongle Health Counselling Service Centre, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tiecheng","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Consultation Center of AIDS Aid and Health Service, Shenyang, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Honghong","family":"Xue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Fujian Volunteers Association of STD&AIDS Prevention and Control, Fuzhou, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yingqin","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jilin Sexology Society, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joseph Tak Fai","family":"Lau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Health Behaviours Research, JC School of Public Health and Primary Care, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China"},{"name":"Shenzhen Research Institute, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,2,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-642-69746-3_2"},{"key":"bibr2-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0749-5978(91)90020-T"},{"key":"bibr3-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1108524"},{"key":"bibr4-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1105243"},{"key":"bibr5-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1507198"},{"key":"bibr6-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s2214-109x(13)70172-4"},{"key":"bibr7-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/qai.0000000000000951"},{"key":"bibr8-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1506816"},{"key":"bibr9-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09540120500101757"},{"key":"bibr10-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0146903"},{"issue":"3","key":"bibr11-1557988319828615","first-page":"52","volume":"25","author":"Li J.","year":"2014","journal-title":"Jiangsu Journal of Preventive Medicine"},{"key":"bibr12-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/17437199.2010.521684"},{"key":"bibr13-1557988319828615","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/a0016939"},{"key":"bibr14-1557988319828615","unstructured":"National Health and Family Planning Commission of China.
