INTRODUCTION
Cases of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) and HIV co-infection have increased worldwide. We investigated the prevalence of HIV and associated factors among VL patients in Sergipe state, Brazil.
METHODS
We conducted a population-based study of all cases of VL and HIV reported in Sergipe from 1999 to 2015.
RESULTS
We studied a total of 917 patients; 41 (4.5%) co-infection cases were detected. VL-HIV co-infected patients were more likely to have weight loss, cough, treatment failure or loss to follow-up and death.
CONCLUSIONS
The prevalence of VL-HIV co-infection was high and co-infected patients were more likely to have adverse outcomes.
引言
内脏利什曼病（VL）与HIV合并感染的病例在全球范围内有所增加。我们调查了巴西塞尔希培州VL患者中HIV的流行情况及相关因素。
方法
我们对1999年至2015年塞尔希培州报告的所有VL和HIV病例进行了一项基于人群的研究。
结果
我们共研究了917名患者；检测到41例（4.5%）合并感染病例。VL-HIV合并感染患者更有可能出现体重减轻、咳嗽、治疗失败或失访以及死亡。
结论
VL-HIV合并感染的患病率很高，合并感染患者更有可能出现不良结局。
