Abstract:
Objective To compare the difference of immune responses to hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1-infected patients with different CD4+ T-lymphocyte counts.Methods HIV-1-infected patients who visited clinic at the Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu were enrolled and divided into two groups according to CD4+ T-lymphocytes counts.CD4+ T-lymphocytes <200/μL,which were and ≥200/μL.All patients were injected intramuscularly with 20 μg of HBV vaccine at month 0,1 and 6,respectively.Vaccination responses were measured at1 and 7 months after first dose.The serum anti-hepatitis B sarface antigen titers of ≥ 10 mIU/mL were considered positive.The serum anti-HBs positive rates was compared by Chi-square test and anti-HBs titers was compared by Mann-Whitney test.Results Ninety-five HIV-1-infected patients were finally enrolled into the analysis,with 55 patients in group of CD4+ T-lymphocytes <200/μL and 40 patients in group of CD4+ T-lymphocytes ≥200/μL.The serum anti-HBs positivity rates at 1 and 7 months after first dose in group of CD4+ T-lymphocytes <200/μL were 40.0% (22/55) and 50.9% (28/55),respectively,which were 47.5% (19/40) and 75.0% (30/40) in group of CD4+ Tlymphocytes ≥200/μL.There was no significant difference of serum anti-HBs positivity rates between two groups after 1 month (x2 =5.652,P=0.017).But a significant higher positivity rate was found in group of CD4+ T-lymphocytes ≥200/μL than in group ofCD4+ Tlymphocytes<200/μL after 7 months (x2=0.531,P=0.466).The median titers of anti-HBs at 7 months were 10.44 mIU/mL in grouP of CD4+ T-lymphocytes < 200/μL and 222.73 mIU/ml in group of CD4+ T-lymphocytes ≥200/μL.There was significant difference of anti-HBs titers between two groups (Z=-3.600,P<0.01).No patients experienced side effects to HBV vaccine.Logistic regression model analysis indicated that only CD4+ Tlymphocytes was related to anti-HBs positivity after HBV vaccination.Conclusions HIV-1-infected patients with CD4+ T-lymphocytes ≥200/μL have higher serum anti-HBs positivity rates and higher anti HBs titers than patients with CD4+ T-lymphocytes <200/μL.However,patients with CD4+ T lymphocytes <200/μL also have relatively low immune response.Thus,HBV vaccination should be conducted in all these patients at high risk.
