Abstract

BACKGROUND

Fastidious bacteria have been associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV) using PCR methods. We assessed the prevalence of these bacteria in HIV-1 infected women and their relationship with vaginal pH and shedding of HIV-1 RNA.

METHODS

64 cervicovaginal lavage (CVL) samples were collected from 51 women. Vaginal microbiota were characterized using 8 bacterium-specific quantitative PCR assays.

RESULTS

Women with the fastidious bacteria Bacterial Vaginosis Associated Bacterium (BVAB) 1, 2, and 3 showed a trend to increased HIV-1 shedding (OR 2.59-3.07, P = .14-.17). Absence of Lactobacillus crispatus (P < .005) and presence of BVAB2 (P < .001) were associated with elevated vaginal pH. BVAB1, 2, and 3 were highly specific indicators of BV in HIV-infected women, with specificities of 89%-93%.

CONCLUSIONS

Fastidious bacteria (BVAB 1, 2, and 3) remain specific indicators of BV in HIV-infected women, and BVAB2 may contribute to the elevated vaginal pH that is a hallmark of this syndrome.

摘要

背景

使用聚合酶链反应(PCR)方法已发现苛求菌与细菌性阴道病(BV)有关。我们评估了这些细菌在HIV-1感染女性中的患病率及其与阴道pH值和HIV-1 RNA脱落的关系。

方法

从51名女性中收集了64份宫颈阴道灌洗(CVL)样本。使用8种细菌特异性定量PCR检测方法对阴道微生物群进行了特征分析。

结果

感染苛求菌阴道加德纳菌相关细菌(BVAB)1、2和3的女性显示出HIV-1脱落增加的趋势(比值比2.59 - 3.07,P = 0.14 - 0.17)。卷曲乳杆菌缺失(P < 0.005)和BVAB2存在(P < 0.001)与阴道pH值升高有关。BVAB1、2和3是HIV感染女性中BV的高度特异性指标,特异性为89% - 93%。

结论

苛求菌(BVAB 1、2和3)仍然是HIV感染女性中BV的特异性指标,并且BVAB2可能导致阴道pH值升高,这是该综合征的一个标志。
