ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effects of direct-acting antiviral agents (DAAs) combined regimens for hepatitis C virus (HCV) patients in Dehong Prefecture, Yunnan Province from 2022 to 2024, to analyze the characteristics of treatment failure patients, so as to provide a basis for discovering more effective treatment regimens in the future. MethodsData on HCV prevention and treatment in Dehong Prefecture was extracted from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System. A total of 617 patients with HCV antiviral therapy were included, and the differences in variable characteristics among patients with different genotypes were analyzed using comparative statistical tests, including basic socio-demographic characteristics, biochemical testing indicators, and information on previous treatment and current treatment. In addition, the cure rate of HCV patients with diverse characteristics was compared, and the potential causes of treatment failure were explored simultaneously. ResultsThe cure rate of HCV was 96.8%, and statistically significant differences were observed in aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) levels, previous antiviral therapy history and initial treatment regimens among patients with different HCV genotypes (all P<0.05). Among the multi-type combination regimens, the cure rate of sofosbuvir (SOF)-containing regimens was 97.00%, that of velpatasvir (VEL)-containing regimens was 95.45%, and the cure rate of other treatment regimens, including the regimens with ribavirin (RIB) intervention, was 93.10%. Among the patients with treatment failure, 45.00% had genotype 3, 40.00% had abnormal abdominal ultrasound results, and all presented with elevated baseline AST test levels. ConclusionThe clinical treatment of HCV patients should consider the differences in genotype and biochemical test results. DAAs combined regimens for HCV have achieved a high cure rate in Dehong Prefecture and are applicable to HCV patients with diverse clinical characteristics, providing research evidence for wider application.

ObjectiveTo determine the characteristics， viral load and immunological status of HIV-infected persons and their spouses who became HIV-positive， and the reasons for HIV seroconversion in 55 HIV discordant couples in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture （Dehong Prefecture）， Yunan Province. MethodsData on the 55 couples meeting the criteria of having a previously positive spouse were retrieved from the AIDS Integrated Prevention and Control Data Information System of the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System during 2015-2021. General socio-demographic information， age at diagnosis， exposure history， CD4⁺T lymphocyte count， and antiviral treatment were collected. Descriptive analysis and chi-square test were used to compare the distribution of pre-HIV-positive spouses and their HIV seroconverted spouses. ResultsA total of 55 spouses from HIV discordant couples had HIV seroconversion. Of them， 72.7% （40/55） of pre-HIV-positive spouses were husbands. The most recent CD4⁺T lymphocyte count in the pre-HIV-positive spouses was （328.31±246.27） cells·μL^-1 at the time of diagnosis of their seroconverted spouses， of which 36.3% （20/55） had a CD4⁺T lymphocyte count of less than 200 cells·μL^-1. Furthermore， of those pre-HIV-positive spouses with low CD4⁺T lymphocyte count， 45.0% （9/20） had an undetectable viral load， 15.0% （3/20） <400 copies·mL^-1， and 25.0%（5/20） ≥400 copies·mL^-1. Additionally， 16.4% （9/55） of the pre-HIV-positive spouses did not have a viral load test. The main reasons for HIV seroconversion among HIV-negative spouses in the discordant couples were poor condom use， poor compliance with antiviral therapy， and treatment discontinuation. ConclusionThe follow-up management of HIV discordant couples should be strengthened in Dehong Prefecture， especially the monitoring of viral load levels and immunological status of pre-HIV-positive spouses， to improve their compliance with antiviral therapy and reduce treatment discontinuation， which would effectively prevent and control HIV transmission between spouses.

ObjectiveTo determine the characteristics and influencing factors of hepatitis C virus （HCV） co-infection among HIV concordant couples in Dehong Prefecture. MethodsUsing the data of newly reported HIV concordant couples in Dehong Prefecture from 2016 to 2019， we collected the demographic characteristics， exposure history， and HCV infection to determine the characteristics of HCV co-infection among HIV concordant couples. ResultsAmong the 160 HIV concordant couples included in the study， 46 （28.8%） males and 14 （8.8%） females were co-infected with HCV. The prevalence of HIV-HCV co-infection was higher among the male spouses who were diagnosed less than 40， Jingpo ethnic， Burmese， illiteracy， farmers， and intravenous drug users. In contrast， the prevalence of HIV-HCV co-infection was higher among the female spouses who were diagnosed less than 40， Jingpo ethnic， and Burmese. Logistic regression analysis among male spouses showed that the Jingpo ethnic and intravenous drug users had higher risk of HCV co-infection. ConclusionHIV concordant couples in Dehong Prefecture have high prevalence of HIV-HCV co-infection. Effective intervention strategies should be developed based on ethnic-specific factors and exposure characteristics among male and female spouses of HIV concordant couples.

ObjectiveTo investigate the demographic characteristics， high-risk behavior and first CD4⁺T cell（CD4 cell） counts among newly reported HIV-infected Burmese in Dehong Dai Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture （Dehong Prefecture） from 2019 to 2020. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was conducted among newly reported HIV-infected Burmese cases in Dehong Prefecture from 2019 to 2020 to collect related information and measure their first CD4 cell counts. ResultsAmong 1 228 HIV-infected Burmese cases， 846 （68.9%） were males and 382 （31.1%） were females； 445 （36.2%） were from Kachin， and 210（17.1%） were from Shan. Of them， 960 cases （78.2%） had participated in the first CD4 cell counts testing， and 405 cases （42.2%） had a first CD4 cell counts <350 cells·μL^-1. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis， age ≥30 years （adjusted OR=1.44， 95%CI： 1.07‒1.92） and history of illicit drug use in Myanmar （adjusted OR=0.41， 95%CI： 0.21‒0.79） were independently associated with first CD4 cell counts <350 cells·μL^-1. ConclusionThe first CD4 cell counts are generally low among newly reported HIV-infected Burmese in Dehong Prefecture， especially those aged ≥ 30 years and with a history of intravenous drug use in Myanmar. Therefore， early detection of HIV infection should be strengthened for timely intervention and treatment management among Burmese.

Objective:To explore the effect of continuing care based on the WeChat public platform questionnaire star on the fluid replacement operation of peritoneal dialysis patients.Methods:Convenience sampling method was used to select 210 patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis in the Panyu Central Hospital, Guangzhou from January to June 2019. They were divided into a experimental group and a control group by random number table method, each with 105 cases. The patients of the control group were given routine continuous care for peritoneal dialysis, such as outpatient follow-up, telephone follow-up, home visit, etc., and oral education. On this basis, in the experimental group, the patients first joined the WeChat public platform, implementing network-based health education and questionnaire stars for real-time testing, and multi-dimensional communication with patients. The knowledge of the peritoneal dialysis fluid replacement operation, the fluid replacement operation evaluation score, the catheter outlet replacement drug evaluation score, the fluid replacement operation self-management score and compliance were compared before and after intervention in the two groups. And the incidence of complications related to the peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange operation of the two groups were compared before and after intervention.Results:The experimental group′s knowledge of peritoneal dialysis fluid exchange operation, examination score of fluid exchange operation, and abnormal situation management score of fluid exchange operation management were 55.88±8.97, 92(89, 96), 12(11, 12) after three-month intervention, and higher than the control group [51.88±10.24, 91 (86, 94), 12 (9, 12)], with statistically significant difference ( t value was 3.00, Z value was -2.483, -2.308, P<0.05). After six-month intervention, the relevant knowledge of peritoneal dialysis fluid replacement operation, fluid replacement operation evaluation score, catheter outlet replacement drug evaluation score and fluid replacement operation management score (routine fluid replacement operation, abnormal situation handling) of the experimental group were 57.52±9.41, 93 (90,96), 90 (87,94), 18 (17,18), 12 (11,12), which were higher than the control group [53.61±10.29, 90 (86,94), 90 (87,92), 17 (15,17), 12 (9,12)], with statistically significant difference ( t value was 2.87, Z value was from -7.181 to -2.664, P<0.01). The difference between the groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 4.21-7.517, all P<0.05); and the difference between the intervention time points was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 11.805-164.95, all P<0.05). After six-month intervention, the complications of catheter infection, peritonitis, and poor drainage were 9 (8.91%), 5 (4.95%), and 5 (4.95%) in the experimental group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [21 (20.39%), 14 (13.59%), 15 (14.56%)], with statistically significant differences ( χ2 value was 5.36, 4.51, 5.33, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The continuous care of the WeChat public platform questionnaire star has a significant promotion effect on the improvement of the knowledge, operation ability, compliance and self-management behavior of the peritoneal dialysis patients, and can effectively reduce the complications caused by the peritoneal dialysis operation.

Objective:To analyze the longitudinal characteristics of CD4 +T lymphocytes (CD4) among the adult HIV/AIDS on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and the related factors. Methods:A retrospective cohort of adult HIV/AIDS starting ART in Dehong Dai and Jingpo Autonomous Prefecture (Dehong) in 2007-2016 was followed up to December 31, 2018. Group-based trajectory models were utilized to identify CD4 subgroups based on immune recovery (whether and when CD4 reached the average level of >500 cells/μl). The demographics and information at ART baseline were described, and the related factors were analyzed with polytomous logistic regression. The SAS 9.4 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 7 605 adults with HIV/AIDS were included, of which the median ( P 25, P 75) age at ART were 36 (30,43) years old, 61.0% were male, 42.5% were Han nationality, and 60.8% with the education of primary school or below. The follow-up duration M ( P 25, P 75) was 6.1 (4.1,8.1) years. HIV/AIDS in Dehong showed four CD4 trajectory subgroups from low to high: below the average level, primary recovery to a normal level, full recovery to a moderate level, and normal steady level, accounting for 34.4%, 39.8%, 20.6%, and 5.2%, respectively. When compared with corresponding control groups, age <35 years at ART, female, education of middle school or above, sexual transmission, no opportunistic infection, CD4 ≥200 cells/μl, baseline regimen with tenofovir (TDF) and time from HIV diagnosis to ART <1 year were the related factors facilitating the higher CD4 subgroups. Conclusions:The various CD4 immune recoveries of HIV/AIDS were changing patterns after ART. Starting ART with a high CD4 level was beneficial to CD4 recovery to normal level during the follow-up period. Early initiation of ART and exceptional attention to CD4 immune recovery should be encouraged after the ART.
