在美国，HIV合并感染者中有很高的梅毒感染率。目的：本研究的目的是估计2002年美国HIV感染者中一期和二期（P&S）梅毒的发病率。研究：我们估计了HIV感染者中P&S梅毒的新发病例数，并将其除以HIV感染者的估计数。计算值来自国家梅毒和艾滋病毒/艾滋病监测报告以及其他公开来源。我们估计，2002年，每10万艾滋病毒感染者中有186例新的P&S梅毒病例，每10万艾滋病毒感染妇女中有25例，每10万只与妇女发生性关系的艾滋病毒感染男子中有60例，每10万男男性行为者中有336人感染艾滋病毒。在2002年报告的6862例P&S梅毒病例中，估计有1718例（25%）发生在合并感染HIV的人群中。结论：HIV感染者中P&S梅毒的估计发病率明显高于一般人群。这些发现突出了向艾滋病毒感染者提供性传播疾病预防和控制服务的重要性。
In the United States, there is a high rate of HIV coinfection in persons with syphilis.Goal: The goal of this study was to estimate the rate of primary and secondary (P&S) syphilis in persons living with HIV in the United States in 2002.Study: We approximated the number of new cases of P&S syphilis in HIV-infected persons and divided this by the estimated number of persons living with HIV. Values for the calculations were obtained from national syphilis and HIV/AIDS surveillance reports and other published sources.Results: We estimated the rate of new cases of P&S syphilis at 186 per 100,000 persons living with HIV in 2002, 25 per 100,000 HIV-infected women, 60 per 100,000 HIV-infected men who have sex with women only, and 336 per 100,000 HIV-infected men who have sex with men. Of the 6862 reported cases of P&S syphilis in 2002, an estimated 1718 (25%) occurred in persons coinfected with HIV.Conclusions: The estimated rate of P&S syphilis in persons with HIV is considerably higher than that of the general population. These findings highlight the importance of providing sexually transmitted disease prevention and control services to HIV-infected persons.
