Human T-lymphotropic virus types 1/2 (HTLV-1/2) are distributed worldwide and are endemic in specific regions.
Serological evaluation of the HTLV-1/2 prevalence and co-infection rate [human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), Chagas disease, and syphilis)] for 2011-2014 was performed with volunteer blood donors from the western part of São Paulo State.
Serrana and Araçatuba had higher HTLV seroprevalence rates (0.1%); while Franca, Olimpia, and Bebedouro had lower seroprevalences (0.04%). Co-infection (HBV and syphilis) was present in 12.3% of HTLV-infected blood donors.
Our findings provide data for the prevalence of HTLV in Brazil and demonstrate the importance of regional and global hemovigilance.
人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒1型/2型(HTLV-1/2)在全球范围内均有分布,且在特定地区呈地方性流行。
对2011年至2014年圣保罗州西部的志愿献血者进行了HTLV-1/2流行率及合并感染率[人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)、乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)、丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)、恰加斯病和梅毒]的血清学评估。
塞拉纳和阿拉萨图巴的HTLV血清阳性率较高(0.1%);而弗朗卡、奥林匹亚和贝贝杜罗的血清阳性率较低(0.04%)。12.3%的HTLV感染献血者存在合并感染(HBV和梅毒)。
我们的研究结果提供了巴西HTLV流行情况的数据,并证明了区域和全球血液监测的重要性。
