Abstract

High rates of human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and human T cell lymphotropic virus type 2 (HTLV-2) infections have been reported among Andean and Amazonian Peruvian indigenous populations in Peru. The Shipibo-Konibo people are the third-largest Amazonian indigenous group living in Peru. By using data from two observational studies conducted in the Shipibo-Konibo community, we estimated that the risk of all-cause death at 12 years was 3.11 times higher (95% CI: 1.58-6.10) for people with HTLV-1 infection compared with those with HTLV-2 infection or without HTLV-1 and HTLV-2 infections.

Shipibo-Konibo人嗜T细胞病毒1型和嗜T细胞病毒2型死亡率

据报道，秘鲁安第斯和亚马逊地区秘鲁土著居民中1型人类T细胞淋巴病毒（HTLV-1）和2型人类T细胞淋巴病毒（HTLV-2）感染率很高。Shipibo-Konibo人是生活在秘鲁的第三大亚马逊土著群体。通过使用在Shipibo-Konibo社区进行的两项观察性研究的数据，我们估计HTLV-1感染者的12年全因死亡风险比HTLV-2感染者或没有HTLV-1和HTLV-2感染的人高3.11倍（95% CI: 1.58-6.10）。
