There has been little published data on estimates of HBV and/or HCV coinfection in HIV-positive patients in China or an understanding of how this coinfection varies with different factors. Therefore, this study aimed to determine, through a systematic review and meta-analysis, the prevalence of HBV and/or HCV in HIV-positive patients in China and explore variations in prevalence.
The Medicine, Web of Science, Chinese Web of Knowledge, and Wanfang databases were searched using a search strategy combining key words and related disease-specific subject terms to identify relevant cohort or cross-sectional studies published up to April 2019. Included articles were assessed for quality. Pooled prevalence and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated according to study region and other specific characteristics.
Our searches identified 7843 records, but only 66 studies were included in our meta-analysis. The pooled HBsAg prevalence in HIV-positive patients was 13.7% (95% CI 12.3-15.3%), with variations found in terms of age and geographic region. The meta-HCV prevalence was 24.7% (95% CI 19.3-30.5%), which varied over the study period and age. The pooled HBV-HCV coinfection prevalence was 3.5% (95% CI 2.4-4.8%), with variations found in terms of age and geographic region.
Given the high burden of HBV and HCV coinfections in HIV-positive patients, the incorporation of comprehensive screening, treatment, prevention, and vaccination programs into general HIV management in China is imperative.
中国有关 HIV 阳性患者中 HBV 和/或 HCV 合并感染的估计数据很少,也不了解这种合并感染如何随不同因素而变化。因此,本研究旨在通过系统评价和荟萃分析,确定中国 HIV 阳性患者中 HBV 和/或 HCV 的流行率,并探讨流行率的变化。
采用结合关键词和相关疾病特定主题词的搜索策略,检索医学、Web of Science、中国知识网和万方数据库,以确定截至 2019 年 4 月发表的相关队列或横断面研究。对纳入的文章进行质量评估。根据研究区域和其他特定特征,计算合并流行率和 95%置信区间(CI)。
我们的搜索共确定了 7843 条记录,但只有 66 项研究纳入荟萃分析。HIV 阳性患者的 HBsAg 总流行率为 13.7%(95%CI 12.3-15.3%),不同年龄和地理区域之间存在差异。荟萃 HCV 流行率为 24.7%(95%CI 19.3-30.5%),研究期间和年龄不同。HBV-HCV 合并感染的总流行率为 3.5%(95%CI 2.4-4.8%),不同年龄和地理区域之间存在差异。
鉴于 HIV 阳性患者中 HBV 和 HCV 合并感染的负担很重,因此中国必须将全面的筛查、治疗、预防和疫苗接种计划纳入 HIV 综合管理中。
