A seroepidemiological survey to determine the prevalence of retrovirus infection (HTLV-I/II, HIV-1, HIV-2) by representative sampling of the general population in the Department of Atacora in north-western Benin is reported. The seroprevalence rate of HTLV-I in this sample was at 1.86% (95% CI 1.20-2.52%). This is in agreement with prevalence rates reported from neighbouring countries of the sub-region. No sera were found positive for HTLV-II. Seropositivity to HIV-1 was 0.3%; HIV-2 seropositivity was not encountered.
据报道,在贝宁西北部阿塔科拉省对普通人群进行代表性抽样,开展了一项血清流行病学调查,以确定逆转录病毒感染(人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒I型/II型、HIV-1、HIV-2)的流行情况。该样本中人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒I型的血清阳性率为1.86%(95%置信区间1.20-2.52%)。这与该次区域邻国报告的流行率一致。未发现人类嗜T淋巴细胞病毒II型血清阳性样本。HIV-1血清阳性率为0.3%;未发现HIV-2血清阳性情况。
