Combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) has been associated with a steep decrease in mortality and morbidity in HIV-1 infected children. New antiretroviral molecules and drug classes have been developed and the management of HIV-infected children has improved, but recent data on survival are limited. An observational retrospective study investigating changes in mortality and morbidity was conducted on 1,091 perinatally HIV-1 infected children enrolled in the Italian Register for HIV Infection in Children and followed-up from 2001 to 2018. Three hundred and fifty-four (32%) AIDS events and 26 (2%) deaths occurred overtime. Mortality rates decreased from 0.4/100 person-years in 2001-2006 to 0.27/100 person-years in 2007-2012 and 0.07/100 person-years in 2013-2018. Notably, 92% of the dead children were born in Italy, but only 50% were followed-up since birth or within three months of age. Seventy three percent of children had started cART at age ≥6 months; 23% were treated for <30 days before death. B and C clinical events progressively decreased ( < 0.0001). Opportunistic infections significantly decreased over time, but still were the most common events in all the periods (6.76/100 person-years in 2013-2018). In the last period, severe bacterial infections were the most common ones. Cancer rates were 0.07/100; 0.17/100; 0.07/100 person-years in the three periods, respectively. Progressive reductions both in mortality and in rates of class B and C clinical events and OIs have been observed during the cART era. However, deaths were still registered; more than half of dead children were enrolled after birth and had belatedly started cART.
联合抗逆转录病毒疗法(cART)已使HIV-1感染儿童的死亡率和发病率大幅下降。新的抗逆转录病毒分子和药物类别不断涌现,HIV感染儿童的治疗管理也有所改善,但近期有关生存率的数据有限。对1091名围产期感染HIV-1的儿童进行了一项观察性回顾研究,这些儿童被纳入意大利儿童HIV感染登记系统,并于2001年至2018年接受随访。随时间推移,发生了354起(32%)艾滋病事件和26起(2%)死亡事件。死亡率从2001 - 2006年的0.4/100人年降至2007 - 2012年的0.27/100人年,再降至2013 - 2018年的0.07/100人年。值得注意的是,92%的死亡儿童出生在意大利,但只有50%从出生或出生后三个月内开始接受随访。73%的儿童在6个月及以上开始接受cART治疗;23%在死亡前接受治疗不足30天。B类和C类临床事件逐渐减少(<0.0001)。机会性感染随时间显著减少,但在所有时期仍是最常见的事件(2013 - 2018年为6.76/100人年)。在最后一个时期,严重细菌感染最为常见。三个时期的癌症发病率分别为0.07/100、0.17/100、0.07/100人年。在cART时代,死亡率以及B类和C类临床事件和机会性感染的发生率均逐步下降。然而,仍有死亡病例登记;超过一半的死亡儿童在出生后登记入组,且开始cART治疗较晚。
