Id: 17878 Author: Naafs, B. Title: Leprosy and HIV: an analysis. Source: Hansen. int;25(1):63-66, jan.-jul. 2000. . Abstract: After the introduction of HIV in the community, the number of patients with tubereculosis increased. Many of the HIV infested patients suffer from clinical tuberculosis. Other mycobacterial infections too have an increased incidence among the HIV infected patients, but not so leprosy. Many researchers have looked into this observation, however with conflicting results. But a major increase in leprosy prevalence among HIV infected patients was never encountered, nor a significant increase of HIV seroprevalence among leprosy patients. In Africa during the past 30 years a continuous fall in the leprosy incidence was seen. However in recent years the decline seems to come to a halt and in some areas an increase is observed. The author speculates that M. leprae does not cause clinical disease in already HIV infected patients, since M. leprae is virtually non-toxic and needs a more or less functioning CMI to cause clinical disease...(AU).

Id: 17877 Author: Naafs, Ben. Title: Hanseníase e HIV: uma análise / Leprosy an HIV: an analysis Source: Hansen. int;25(1):60-62, jan.-jul. 2000. . Abstract: Após a introduçäo do HIV, o número de pacientes com tuberculose aumentou e muitos deles, infectados com o HIV, sofrem de tuberculose. Em outras infecçöes micobacterianas, também foi demonstrada uma incidência aumentada nos pacientes infectados com HIV, mas näo na hanseníase. Muitos pesquisadores têm observado isso, mas os resultados têm sido conflitantes. Nos pacientes com HIV, contudo nunca foi encontrado um aumento maior na prevalência da hnaseníase e nem um aumento significativo de soroprevalência para o HIV entre os pacientes com hanseníase. Na África, durante os últimos 30 anos, tem sido vista uma contínua queda na incidência da hanseníase. Contudo, em anos recentes, esse declínio parece ter feito uma parada e, em algumas áreas, foi observado até um aumento dessa incidência. O autor considera que o Mycobacterium leprae näo causa a doença em pacientes já infectados com HIV, posto que o Mycobacterium leprae é virtualmente näo toxico e necessita uma imunidade mediada poe células (CMI) mais ou menos funcionante para causar a doença clínica...(AU).
