We investigated the association between Buruli ulcer and HIV by comparing the HIV-1/2 seroprevalence in a series of 426 Buruli ulcer patients and a sample of 613 residents of southern Benin. The overall HIV prevalence was 2.6% (11/426) among patients and 0.3% among controls (2/613), giving an odds ratio for the association between HIV and Buruli ulcer of 8.1 (95% confidence interval = 1.8-75; P = 0.003).
我们通过比较426例布鲁里溃疡患者和贝宁南部613名居民样本中的HIV-1/2血清流行率,研究了布鲁里溃疡与HIV之间的关联。患者中HIV总体流行率为2.6%(11/426),对照组为0.3%(2/613),HIV与布鲁里溃疡关联的优势比为8.1(95%置信区间=1.8-75;P=0.003)。
