To assess the frequency of perinatal pathology in children exposed to antiretrovirals in perinatal period.
Retrospective observational cohort study.
Retrospective observational cohort study. Data collected among uninfected children born to HIV-infected women followed up from 1994 to 2006 in a tertiary Hospital. 220 uninfected children were studied. Factors studied included maternal, obstetrical and pediatric variables.
The most common disorder found among children exposed to antiretroviral drugs was anemia (84%); 6,4% of children had neutropenia and more than 24% had thrombocytosis, a finding never described before. Prematurity (24%) and low birth weight (23.6%) rates were high. Several congenital malformations were found: Poland syndrome, angiomas, hypospadias, Pierre-Robin sequence, trisomy 8, craniostosis and others. Long-term follow-up revealed neurological, cardiological and ophthalmological pathologies.
Some pathologies are frequent among children exposed to antiretroviral agents during perinatal life. It is crucial to carry out long-term studies to assess the safety of this therapy.
评估围产期暴露于抗逆转录病毒药物的儿童的围产期病理学发生率。
回顾性观察性队列研究。
回顾性观察性队列研究。本研究的数据收集自 1994 年至 2006 年期间在一家三级医院接受随访的 HIV 感染母亲所生的未感染儿童。共研究了 220 名未感染的儿童。研究的因素包括母婴、产科和儿科变量。
在接受抗逆转录病毒药物治疗的儿童中,最常见的疾病是贫血(84%);6.4%的儿童中性粒细胞减少,超过 24%的儿童血小板增多,这是以前从未描述过的发现。早产(24%)和低出生体重(23.6%)的发生率较高。发现了一些先天性畸形:波兰综合征、血管瘤、尿道下裂、Robin 序列、8 三体、颅缝早闭等。长期随访发现了神经、心脏和眼科的病变。
围产期暴露于抗逆转录病毒药物的儿童中存在一些常见的病理。开展长期研究以评估这种治疗的安全性至关重要。
