Abstract:
Objectives To compare the co-infection statues of HSV, HBV and HCV in patients with STD and HIV infection for providing evidence of developing prevention and control strategies. Methods Serum samples confirmed to be infected with HIV/AIDS by Western blot, and serum samples of patients with STDs (syphilis, gonorrhoea and chlamydial infection) were tested for HSV2-IgG, HSV2-IgM, HBsAg and HCV-IgG by ELISA. The detection levels were compared between the two groups. Results Out of 76 specimens in STD group, HSV2-IgG was detected in 24 specimens (31.58%), HSV2-IgM in one specimen (1.32%), HBsAg positive in 8 (10.53%), and HCV antibody positive in 4 (1.32%). In 14 specimens of HIV/AIDS group, HSV2-IgG were detected in 7 (50.00%); HSV2-IgM in 5 (35.71%);8 (578.14%) were positive for HBsAg and 3 (21.43%) for HCV. In a total of 90 specimens, both HSV and HBV were detected in 6 specimens, both HSV-IgM and HBV in 2, and the four above-mentioned antibodies in 2. The infection rates of HSV, HBV and HCV were significantly higher in HIV-infected specimens than those in the STD specimens (P
