摘要
背景:Covid-19 大流行对包括巴西在内的全球 HIV 护理和预防产生了重大影响。我们比较了男男性行为者(MSM)和变性女性(TGW)在 Covid-19 大流行期间的 HIV 检测、近期感染率和年发病率:环境:巴西里约热内卢的 HIV/STI 检测、预防和治疗转介服务机构:我们使用 Maxim HIV-1 限制性抗原阳性 EIA 作为近期感染检测算法的一部分,以确定近期 HIV 感染情况,并估算 Covid-19 流行前(2018 年 3 月至 2020 年 2 月)和 Covid-19 流行后(2020 年 3 月至 2022 年 1 月)的 HIV 年发病率。多变量逻辑回归模型评估了与近期 HIV 感染相关的因素:在 4590 名 MSM 和 TGW 中,593 人(12.9%)的 HIV 检测呈阳性,119 人(2.6%)被确定为近期感染。最近感染 HIV 的比例在 Covid-19 期间没有差异。在 Covid-19 之前和之后,HIV 的总体年化发病率分别为 6.0% (95%CI:4.2-7.7) 和 6.6% (95%CI:4.3-9.0)。在后 Covid-19 时期,TGW(8.4%[95%CI:2.9-13.9])、18-24 岁人群(7.8%[95%CI:4.0-11.7])、黑人(7.9%[95%CI:3.8-12.0])、30 岁以上人群和 TGW 的发病率较高,而受教育年限较长人群的发病率较低:结论:在巴西,男男性行为者和男男性行为者中的艾滋病毒感染率仍然很高,尤其是在最脆弱人群中。Covid-19 大流行对艾滋病毒疫情的影响很可能会持续下去,并导致艾滋病毒结果的恶化。
Impact of Covid-19 pandemic on HIV testing, recent infections and annualized incidence among cisgender men who have sex with men and transgender women in Brazil.
Background: The Covid-19 pandemic had great impact on HIV care and prevention worldwide, including in Brazil. We compared HIV testing, recent infection, and annualized incidence according to Covid-19 pandemic period among men who have sex with men (MSM) and transgender women (TGW).
Setting: HIV/STI testing, prevention and treatment referral service in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Methods: We used Maxim HIV-1 Limiting Antigen Avidity EIA as part of recent infection testing algorithm to identify recent HIV infections and estimate annualized HIV incidences in pre- (March/2018-February/2020) and post-Covid-19 pandemic onset period (March/2020-January 2022). Multivariable logistic regression model assessed factors associated with recent HIV infection.
Results: Among 4590 MSM and TGW, 593 (12.9%) tested positive for HIV and 119 (2.6%) were identified as having recent infection. Percentage of recent HIV infection did not differ between Covid-19 periods. Overall annualized HIV incidence rates were 6.0% (95%CI:4.2-7.7) and 6.6% (95%CI:4.3-9.0) in pre- and post-Covid-19 periods, respectively. During the post-Covid-19 period, higher incidence rates were observed among TGW (8.4%[95%CI:2.9-13.9]), those aged 18-24 years (7.8%[ 95%CI:4.0-11.7]), Black race (7.9%[95%CI:3.8-12.0]), and with <12 years of schooling (7.8%[95%CI:4.8-10.8]). Incidence rates were significantly higher in the post-Covid-19 period for those aged>30 years and TGW, and lower for those with more years of schooling.
Conclusion: HIV incidence estimates remain high among MSM and TGW in Brazil, especially among the most vulnerable. The consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic on the HIV epidemic will likely persist and contribute to worsening HIV outcomes.
