Abstract

Objective: To reveal the epidemiologic characteristics of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in HIV positive population in China. Methods: We collected research papers published from 2010 to 2019 on HBV co-infection in HIV positive population in China through literature retrieval, screening and quality evaluation. The Meta-analysis was conducted after extracting relevant data from the research papers meeting the inclusion criteria. Results: Twenty-seven studies were included with 69 816 samples. The pooled HBV infection rate in HIV positive population in China was 11.29%. The HBV co-infection rate was higher in the western China (10.73%) and southern China (14.18%), while lower in northern China (6.36%). The HBV infection rates were 11.22%, 12.76%, 9.58%, 11.32% and 10.34%, respectively, in HIV-positive population infected through blood or blood products transfusion, intravenous drug use, homosexual contact, heterosexual contact and unknown transmission routes. Population infected with HIV caused by mother-to-child transmission had the lowest HBV infection rate (2.87%). The HBV infection rate in HIV positive males was 1.29 times higher than that in HIV positive females in southern China. Conclusions: The HBV infection rate in HIV positive population is significantly higher than that in general population. More attention should be paid to the prevention and control of HBV co-infection in HIV positive population.

目的: 通过文献回顾,了解我国HIV感染者中HBV感染的流行特征。 方法: 通过对2010-2019年文献检索、文献筛选、质量评价等过程,收集我国有关HIV感染者合并感染HBV的研究文献,对符合纳入标准的文献提取相关数据后进行Meta分析。 结果: 共纳入27项研究,合并样本量为69 816例;我国HIV感染者的HBV合并感染率为11.29%,西部地区(10.73%)和南部地区(14.18%)的合并感染率较高,北部地区(6.36%)最低;血液或血液制品传播、注射吸毒传播、同性性传播、异性性传播、传播途径不详和母婴传播的HIV感染者的HBV合并感染率分别为11.22%、12.76%、9.58%、11.32%、10.34%和2.87%。在HIV各种传播途径中,经母婴传播的HIV感染者的HBV合并感染率最低;南部地区男性HIV感染者的HBV感染率是女性的1.29倍。 结论: 我国HIV感染者的HBV感染率明显高于普通人群的HBV感染率;应加强HIV/HBV共感染者的预防控制。.
