Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the impact of HIV co-infection with HCV or HBV on the efficacy of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HARRT). Methods The patients were divided into three groups: HIV + HBV + HCV co-infection group ( 23 patients), HIV + HCV co-infection group ( 166 patients), and HIV-only group (178 patients). HIV RNA, HCV RNA or HBV DNA were detected by real time PCR before treatment and 1,3,6,9 and 12 monthes after treatment, meanwhile the counts of CD4+ T lymphocyte and liver function including ALT, AST and TBil were tested. Results During one-year HAART, HIV RNA of HIV-only group, HIV + HBV + HCV co-infection group and HIV + HCV co-infection group decreased significantly from (6.78 ± 1.08), (6.23 ± 1.34), (6.54 ± 1.23) lg copies/ml to (0.53 ±0.15), (0.67 ±0.16),(0.43 ±0.11 ) lg copies/ml respectively (P＜.001 ). And CD4+ T lymphocyte counts of the three groups elevated significantly from ( 197 ± 127), (184 ± 113), (213 ± 143) cells/μl to (382 ±74), (383 ±70),(378 ±76) cells/μl respectively (P ＜0.001 ). However there were no differences among the three groups in HIV RNA and CD4+ T lymphocyte counts. There were no differences in liver functions including ALT,AST and TBil among the three groups. Conclusiom HIV co-infected with HBV and/or HCV does not impact on the efficacy of HAART. What more, HAART does not impact HCV replication.
