: We aimed to determine the anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Pune, India. : This cross-sectional study was conducted between March 2021 and June 2021. Demographic and clinical information related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were recorded on structured questionnaires. Blood samples were collected and tested for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies using commercial ELISA. : Of the 405 HIV infected individuals enrolled in the study, 223(55.1%) were females. Mean age and CD4 count of participants were 42 years (SD: 10) and 626 cells/mm (SD: 284) respectively. A total of 382 (95%) PLHIV were virologically suppressed. The seropositivity against SARS-CoV-2 was found in 221 PLHIV (54.6%, 95% CI: 49.7-59.4). No significant association was found between demographic or clinical factors and seropositivity. : A high prevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies was found among PLHIV attending ART centre indicating an exposure to the virus among them.
我们旨在确定印度浦那艾滋病毒感染者(PLHIV)中的抗严重急性呼吸系统综合征冠状病毒 2 型(SARS-CoV-2)IgG 抗体。这项横断面研究于 2021 年 3 月至 2021 年 6 月进行。记录了与 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)相关的人口统计学和临床信息。采集血样,使用商业 ELISA 检测抗 SARS-CoV-2 IgG 抗体。在研究中纳入的 405 名感染艾滋病毒的个体中,有 223 名(55.1%)为女性。参与者的平均年龄和 CD4 计数分别为 42 岁(标准差:10)和 626 个细胞/mm(标准差:284)。共有 382 名(95%)PLHIV 病毒学上得到抑制。在 221 名 PLHIV(54.6%,95%CI:49.7-59.4)中发现了针对 SARS-CoV-2 的血清阳性。在人口统计学或临床因素与血清阳性之间未发现显著关联。在接受抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)中心就诊的 PLHIV 中发现了高比例的抗 SARS-CoV-2 IgG 抗体,这表明他们接触过该病毒。
