It was observed that when the ATP content was > 36 pg/million bacterial cells, (> 1% probable viables) there was growth in the mouse foot pad from all the specimens. Similar results were observed when the ATP content was in the range of 3.6 to 35.99 pg/million cells (0.1 to 1% probable viables). The positivity rates in the mouse foot pad decreased when the ATP content decreased further. No positive growth in the specimens below 0.04 pg/million bacilli (< 0.001% viable organisms) was observed. These findings show an overall correlation between viability assessed by mouse foot pad and ATP bioluminescence.

A cross-sectional survey of anti-HIV1 antibodies was conducted in Rio de Janeiro, from 1990 to 1992 for this purpose. HIV1 prevalence found among leprosy patients was (3 cases) 2.9 per 1000, and among blood donors was (282 cases) 3.8 per 1000. Such difference was not significant (OR = 0.79; p = 0.69).

Male leprosy patients showed a slightly higher prevalence of HIV1 than blood donors before and after age adjustment. However, this result was not statistically significant (adjusted odds ratio = 1.38, 95% CI 0.35-4.5; p = 0.83).

Research on the early diagnosis of leprosy, before the onset of nervous lesions, the appearance (or improved definition) of certain diseases and the expansion of intercontinental migration are some of the factors which have induced changes in the conditions of leprosy diagnosis. The most frequent and most sensitive differential diagnosis of leprosy have been reviewed: hypochromic diseases, tropical infections diseases, systemic diseases, deforming diseases, cutaneous lymphoma and AIDS. The difficulties posed by forms of leprosy revealed by reactional manifestations are stressed.
