: Hepatitis B (HBV) and C (HCV) virus coinfections remain major contributors to liver-related morbidity and mortality among people living with HIV (PLWH). This study aimed to assess the prevalence of HBV and/or HCV coinfections in a Romanian HIV cohort and to evaluate their impact on immunological, virological, and liver function parameters under antiretroviral therapy (ART). We retrospectively analyzed 462 HIV-infected patients (2018-2021) from the National Institute of Infectious Diseases, Bucharest, stratified into four groups: HIV mono-infection ( = 176), HIV/HBV ( = 114), HIV/HCV ( = 97), and HIV/HBV/HCV ( = 75) coinfections. Immunological (CD4 count, CD8 count, and CD4/CD8 ratio), virological (HIV-1 RNA), and hepatic parameters (ALT, AST, GGT, bilirubin, amylase, and lipase) were compared. No significant differences were observed between groups regarding the immune recovery (mean CD4 count = 0.89, HIV-RNA suppression = 0.78). However, liver and pancreatic parameters showed statistically significant deterioration in the coinfected groups. ALT ( < 0.001), GGT ( = 0.009), total bilirubin ( = 0.011), amylase ( = 0.010), and lipase ( < 0.001) were significantly higher in the triple-infection (HIV/HBV/HCV) group compared to HIV mono-infected patients. Coinfection was also associated with a longer duration of illness ( = 0.002) and therapy ( = 0.021) and with a higher number of ART regimens used ( = 0.013). While HIV suppression and immune recovery were not significantly impaired by HBV/HCV coinfections, liver and pancreatic injuries were significantly more prevalent and severe in coinfected patients. Regular monitoring of hepatic function and integrated management strategies are recommended to minimize liver-related complications in this population.
乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)和丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)合并感染仍然是导致人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染者(PLWH)肝脏相关发病和死亡的主要因素。本研究旨在评估罗马尼亚HIV队列中HBV和/或HCV合并感染的患病率,并评估它们在抗逆转录病毒治疗(ART)下对免疫、病毒学和肝功能参数的影响。我们回顾性分析了来自布加勒斯特国家传染病研究所的462例HIV感染患者(2018 - 2021年),将其分为四组:HIV单一感染(n = 176)、HIV/HBV(n = 114)、HIV/HCV(n = 97)和HIV/HBV/HCV(n = 75)合并感染。比较了免疫(CD4计数、CD8计数和CD4/CD8比值)、病毒学(HIV - 1 RNA)和肝脏参数(ALT、AST、GGT、胆红素、淀粉酶和脂肪酶)。在免疫恢复(平均CD4计数 = 0.89,HIV - RNA抑制 = 0.78)方面,各组之间未观察到显著差异。然而,合并感染组的肝脏和胰腺参数显示出统计学上的显著恶化。与HIV单一感染患者相比,三重感染(HIV/HBV/HCV)组的ALT(p < 0.001)、GGT(p = 0.009)、总胆红素(p = 0.011)、淀粉酶(p = 0.010)和脂肪酶(p < 0.001)显著更高。合并感染还与更长的病程(p = 0.002)和治疗时间(p = 0.021)以及更多的ART方案使用次数(p = 0.013)相关。虽然HBV/HCV合并感染并未显著损害HIV抑制和免疫恢复,但合并感染患者的肝脏和胰腺损伤明显更为普遍和严重。建议对该人群定期监测肝功能并采取综合管理策略,以尽量减少肝脏相关并发症。
