The impact of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on herpes simplex virus type-2 (HSV-2) replication is unclear. The aim of this study was to assess factors associated with cervicovaginal HSV-2 DNA shedding and genital ulcer disease (GUD) in a cohort of women living with human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) in Burkina Faso.
Participants were screened for cervicovaginal HSV-2 DNA, GUD, cervicovaginal and systemic HIV-1 RNA, and reproductive tract infections every 3-6 months over 8 years. Associations with HSV-2 shedding and quantity were examined using random-effects logistic and linear regression, respectively.
Of the 236 women with data on HSV-2 shedding, 151 took ART during the study period. Cervicovaginal HSV-2 DNA was detected in 42% of women (99 of 236) in 8.2% of visits (151 of 1848). ART was associated with a reduction in the odds of HSV-2 shedding, which declined for each year of ART use (odds ratio [OR], 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI], .59-.92). In the multivariable model, the impact of ART was primarily associated with suppression of systemic HIV-1 RNA (adjusted OR, 0.32; 95% CI, .15-.67). A reduction in the odds of GUD was also observed during ART, mainly in those with HIV-1 suppression (adjusted OR, 0.53; 95% CI, .25-1.11).
ART is strongly associated with a decrease in cervicovaginal HSV-2 shedding, and the impact was sustained over several years.
抗逆转录病毒疗法(ART)对2型单纯疱疹病毒(HSV-2)复制的影响尚不清楚。本研究的目的是评估布基纳法索一群感染1型人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV-1)的女性中,与宫颈阴道HSV-2 DNA脱落及生殖器溃疡疾病(GUD)相关的因素。
在8年时间里,每3至6个月对参与者进行宫颈阴道HSV-2 DNA、GUD、宫颈阴道及全身HIV-1 RNA和生殖道感染的筛查。分别使用随机效应逻辑回归和线性回归分析与HSV-2脱落及数量的关联。
在236名有HSV-2脱落数据的女性中,151名在研究期间接受了ART治疗。在8.2%的就诊中(1848次就诊中的151次),42%的女性(236名中的99名)检测到宫颈阴道HSV-2 DNA。ART与HSV-2脱落几率的降低相关,使用ART的每一年,脱落几率都会下降(优势比[OR],0.74;95%置信区间[CI],0.59 - 0.92)。在多变量模型中,ART的影响主要与全身HIV-1 RNA的抑制相关(调整后OR,0.32;95% CI,0.15 - 0.67)。在ART治疗期间,GUD的几率也有所降低,主要发生在HIV-1得到抑制的人群中(调整后OR,0.53;95% CI,0.25 - 1.11)。
ART与宫颈阴道HSV-2脱落的减少密切相关,且这种影响在数年内持续存在。
