Co-infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and/or hepatitis B virus (HBV) influences the morbidity and mortality of patients with HIV. A cross sectional analysis was of 11,032 HIV-infected patients enrolled in the Integrated HIV Care Program from May 2005 to April 2012 and Epi-info 3.5 was used to determine the serological prevalence of chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C. The mean ± standard deviation age of patients was 36 ± 8.4 years (adult cohort) and 7 ± 3 years (paediatric cohort). The sero prevalence of hepatitis B surface antigen, hepatitis C (anti HCV antibodies) and triple infection are 8.7%, 5.3% and 0.35%, respectively. Men who have sex with men are at the highest risk of being co-infected with hepatitis B while intravenous drug users are at the highest risk of being co-infected with hepatitis C. It is important to screen for hepatitis B and C in HIV infected people in order to provide quality care for HIV patients with co-infection.
丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)和/或乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)合并感染会影响HIV患者的发病率和死亡率。对2005年5月至2012年4月纳入综合HIV护理项目的11032例HIV感染患者进行了横断面分析,并使用Epi-info 3.5确定慢性乙型肝炎和丙型肝炎的血清学患病率。患者的平均年龄±标准差为36±8.4岁(成人队列)和7±3岁(儿科队列)。乙型肝炎表面抗原、丙型肝炎(抗HCV抗体)和三重感染的血清流行率分别为8.7%、5.3%和0.35%。男男性行为者感染乙型肝炎的风险最高,而静脉吸毒者感染丙型肝炎的风险最高。对HIV感染者进行乙型和丙型肝炎筛查很重要,以便为合并感染的HIV患者提供优质护理。
