We investigated the relation of drug use and sexual behaviour to hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection among 80 intravenous drug users (IVDU) attending a methadone treatment program in Rome. Antibodies to HCV (anti-HCV) were found in 54/80 of IVDU (67.5%). Presence of anti-HCV was associated with duration of intravenous drug use and frequency of needle sharing (p less than 0.003 and p = 0.02, respectively, by chi-square for trend). No association was found between sexual behaviour and anti-HCV prevalence.
我们调查了罗马一家美沙酮治疗项目中的80名静脉注射吸毒者（IVDU）的药物使用和性行为与丙型肝炎病毒（HCV）感染之间的关系。在80名IVDU中有54名（67.5%）检测出抗丙型肝炎病毒抗体（抗-HCV）。抗-HCV的存在与静脉注射吸毒的持续时间和共用针头的频率相关（通过趋势卡方检验，p分别小于0.003和p = 0.02）。未发现性行为与抗-HCV患病率之间存在关联。
