Abstract: Both HIV and HBV infection have become major health problems,of global concern,due to the high prevalence in the past few decades.Data from cumulated epidemiological surveys have shown the links between maternal HIV or HBV infection and adverse outcomes on pregnancy.Maternal HIV or HBV infection may also increase the mother-to-child (MTCT) transmission of the two diseases.However,association between HIV-HBV co-infection and adverse pregnancy is still inconclusive.Does maternal HIV-HBV co-infection have an impact on mother-to-child transmission on either HIV or HBV? Study on effective precautionary measures to promote both maternal and child's health is deemed necessary.
