Abstract:
Objective To investigate the basic information of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome(HIV/AIDS)patients who infected with Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)or human Cytomegalovirus(HCMV),collect the relevant clinical immunological data and analyze the influencing factors.Method A total of 1 093 HIV/AIDS patients treated in the First Hospital of Changsha from January to December 2022 and underwent EBV and HCMV screening were collected.Flow cytometry was used to detect the CD4+T lymphocytes.Fluorescence quantitative PCR was applied for HIV-RNA,EBV-DNA,and HCMV-DNA testing.Statistical analysis was carried out by using SPSS 27.0,and logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of HIV/AIDS patients complicated with viral infection.Results Among 1 093 HIV/AIDS patients,the positive rates of EBV-DNA and HCMV-DNA were 48.22%(527/1 093)and 19.03%(208/1 093),respectively.As the number of CD4+T lymphocytes increased,the positive rates of EBV-DNA and HCMV-DNA decreased,and the differences was statistically significant(χ2=39.50,143.0,all P<0.001).As the level of HIV-RNA increased,the positive rates of EBV-DNA and HCMV-DNA increased,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=46.18,124.3,all P<0.001).The patients receiving antiretroviral therapy(ART)significantly decreased the positive rates of EBV-DNA and HCMV-DNA(χ2=30.60,96.59,all P<0.001).There was a significant negative correlation between the number of CD4+T lymphocytes and the level of HIV-RNA(r=-0.49,P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that the CD4+T lymphocyte count<200/μl(OR=1.46,95%CI:1.02~2.08,P=0.037),HIV-RNA load>200 copies/ml(OR=1.70,95%CI:1.18~2.44,P=0.004)and the age>30 years old(OR=2.15,95%CI:1.44~3.19,P<0.001)were risk factors for HIV/AIDS patients infected with EBV.Without regularly receiving ART(OR=1.83,95%CI:1.10~3.02,P=0.019),HIV-RNA load>200 copies/ml(OR=2.56,95%CI:1.50~4.35,P<0.001)and the CD4+T lymphocyte count<200/μl(OR=4.61,95%CI:2.57~8.28,P<0.001)were risk factors for HCMV infection in HIV/AIDS patients.Conclusion To reduce the possibility of opportunistic infection in HIV/AIDS patients,the surveillance of EBV and HCMV and regular ART should be strengthened,especially when the number of CD4+T lymphocytes decreases(<200/μl),the level of HIV RNA increases(>200 copies/ml)or the age>30 years old.
