We assessed the prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection and identified risk factors for HIV infection in smear-positive TB patients diagnosed by the TB programme in Eritrea. Of 365 notified TB patients, 220 (60.3%) could be traced and provided a blood sample that was tested. Of these, 26 (11.8%, 95%CI 7.6-16.1) were HIV-infected. Risk factors were age, urban residence and schooling level. The data indicate that, starting with the urban areas, it is time for Eritrea to introduce HIV testing of all TB patients.
我们评估了厄立特里亚结核病（TB）与人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）合并感染的流行情况，并确定了涂片阳性结核病患者感染HIV的风险因素。在365例报告的结核病患者中，220例（60.3%）能够被追踪到并提供血样进行检测。其中，26例（11.8%，95%置信区间7.6 - 16.1）感染了HIV。风险因素包括年龄、城市居住情况和受教育程度。数据表明，从城市地区开始，厄立特里亚应着手对所有结核病患者进行HIV检测。
