The prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and genotypes among 965 individuals attending an HIV testing and counseling unit in Dhaka Bangladesh during Jan-Dec 2011 was determined. Anti-HCV antibody was detected in 4.4% individuals; the highest rate 37.8% was in people who inject drugs (PWID) followed by that in the general population (1.3%) and less than 1% in other populations. HCV RNA was detected in 2.7%. The most common genotype was genotype 3 (88.5%) followed by genotype 1 (11.5%). A national wide surveillance for HCV infection reaching all key populations is required to assess the countywide burden and to develop appropriate treatment strategies.
2011 年 1 月至 12 月期间,在孟加拉国达卡的一个艾滋病毒检测和咨询中心对 965 名个体进行了丙型肝炎病毒 (HCV) 和基因型的流行情况调查。在 4.4%的个体中检测到抗 HCV 抗体;注射吸毒者(PWID)的最高发病率为 37.8%,其次是普通人群(1.3%),其他人群的发病率低于 1%。HCV RNA 的检出率为 2.7%。最常见的基因型是基因型 3(88.5%),其次是基因型 1(11.5%)。需要对 HCV 感染进行全国范围的监测,以覆盖所有重点人群,评估全国的负担,并制定适当的治疗策略。
