摘要
背景:在接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的患者中,未抑制的病毒载量计数与较差的生存和病毒传播增加有关。尽管埃塞俄比亚作出了努力,但病毒载量抑制率仍然很低。目的:估计2022年尼日利亚伊伦穆罕默德纪念综合专科医院接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的成人病毒载量抑制时间和病毒载量抑制的预测因素。材料和方法:对2016年1月1日至2021年12月31日接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的297名成年人进行回顾性随访研究。采用简单的随机抽样技术来选择研究参与者。使用STATA 14对数据进行分析。采用Cox回归模型。估计校正后的95% CI的风险比。结果:本研究共纳入296例接受抗逆转录病毒治疗的患者。病毒载量抑制的发生率为9.68 / 100人月。病毒载量抑制的中位时间为9个月。基线CD4≥200 cells /mm3的患者(AHR: 1.87;95% CI = 1.34, 2.63),无机会性感染(AHR = 1.84;95% CI = 1.34, 2.52),处于who临床i期或II期(AHR = 2.12;95% CI = 1.18, 3.79),并接受过结核病预防治疗(AHR = 2.24;95% CI = 1.66, 3.02)有较高的病毒载量抑制风险。结论:病毒载量抑制的中位时间为9个月。没有机会性感染、CD4计数较高、处于世卫组织临床i期或II期、接受过结核病预防治疗的患者病毒载量抑制的危险较高。对CD4水平低于200细胞/mm3的患者进行仔细监测和咨询是必要的。对处于世卫组织晚期临床阶段、CD4计数水平较低和机会性感染的患者进行仔细监测和咨询至关重要。加强提供结核病预防治疗是必要的。
Time to Viral Load Suppression and Its Predictors Among Adult Patients on Antiretro Viral Therapy in Nigist Eleni Mohammed Memorial Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Hossana, Southern Ethiopia.
Background: Unsuppressed viral load count in patients on anti-retroviral therapy is linked to poorer survival and increased transmission of the virus. Despite efforts made in Ethiopia, the viral load suppression rate is still low.
Objective: To estimate time to viral load suppression and predictors of viral load suppression among adults on anti-retroviral therapy in Nigist Elen Mohamed Memorial Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, 2022.
Materials and methods: A retrospective follow-up study was conducted among 297 adults on anti-retroviral therapy from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2021. A simple random sampling technique was used to select study participants. The data were analyzed using STATA 14. Cox regression model was used. The adjusted hazard ratio with 95% CI was estimated.
Results: A total of 296 records of patients on anti-retroviral therapy were included in this study. The incidence of viral load suppression was 9.68 per 100-person months. The median time for viral load suppression was 9 months. Patients with baseline CD4 ≥200 cell/mm3 (AHR: 1.87; 95% CI = 1.34, 2.63), who had no opportunistic infections (AHR = 1.84; 95% CI = 1.34, 2.52), who were on WHO clinical stage-I or II (AHR = 2.12; 95% CI = 1.18, 3.79) and who have taken tuberculosis preventive therapy (AHR = 2.24; 95% CI = 1.66, 3.02) had higher hazards of viral load suppression.
Conclusion: The median time for viral load suppression was 9 months. Patients who had no opportunistic infection, with higher CD4 count, on WHO clinical stage-I or II, who have taken tuberculosis preventive therapy had higher hazards of viral load suppression. Careful monitoring and counseling of patients with CD4 levels lower than 200 cells/mm3 are necessary. Careful monitoring and counseling of patients in advanced WHO clinical stages, with lower CD4 count levels and with opportunistic infections is crucial. Strengthening the provision of tuberculosis preventive therapy is warranted.
