OBJECTIVE
To analyze the key indicators of China Comprehensive AIDS Response Program (China CARES) and the effects of this program during 2008 and 2011.


METHODS
Data were obtained from National AIDS Comprehensive Prevention and Control Information System. The general population HIV test rate and spouse of people living with HIV or AIDS (PLWHA) HIV test rate were chosen as the indicators for HIV testing expansion; anti-retroviral therapy (ART) coverage and PLWHA CD4 test rate during the past 6 months as the indicators for treatment expansion; femal sex worker (FSW) intervention coverage and injection drug users (IDU) intervention coverage as the Indicators for behavior intervention expansion. The Key working quality indicators of 309 program sites were calculated and the results were compared.


RESULTS
During 2008 and 2011, for China CARES, the Median of general population HIV test rate were 1.8%, 2.5%, 3.2% and 5.5%, the Median of spouse of PLWHA HIV test rate were 80.9%, 85.7%, 91.8% and 100.0%, the Median of ART coverage were 60.0%, 66.7%, 76.1% and 92.0%, the Median of PLWHA CD4 test rate during the past 6 months were 27.7%, 45.4%, 58.6% and 75.3%, the Median of FSW intervention coverage were 43.8%, 67.8%, 73.3% and 90.9%, the Median of IDU intervention coverage were 18.2%, 24.0%, 34.0% and 72.4%. The indicators of China CARES increased steadily from 2008 to 2011 in HIV testing expansion, treatment expansion and behavior intervention expansion; Compared to 2008, the percentage of the China CARES which had great progress of the 6 indicators were 98.4% (304/309), 98.3% (286/291), 94.0% (281/299), 93.5% (288/308), 91.8% (279/304) and 90.0% (223/247). in 2008, 3 indicators which were ART coverage, PLWHA CD4 test rate during the past 6 months and FSW intervention coverage were lower than national average (6.9%, 17.9% and 30.9%), the general population HIV test rate, spouse of PLWHA HIV test rate and IDU intervention coverage were higher than national average (3.4%, 64.3% and 22.8%), with the China CARES project going on, in 2011, key indicators which were general population HIV test rate, spouse of PLWHA HIV test rate, ART coverage, PLWHA CD4 test rate during the past 6 months, FSW intervention coverage and IDU intervention coverage were all higher than national average (6.5%, 80.6%, 81.9% and 55.9%).the proportions of China CARES sites whose 6 indicators were higher than national average in 2008 were 32.7% (101/309), 60.6% (149/246), 37.4% (99/265), 61.1% (181/296), 64.0% (174/270) and 45.3% (73/161), and the proportions increase annually to 2011 were 44.0% (136/309), 89.3% (260/291), 76.6% (229/299), 77.9% (240/308), 91.4% (278/304) and 64.8% (160/247).
