在世界范围内,B型肝炎病毒(HBV)估计占3.7亿慢性感染,丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)估计占1.3亿,HIV估计占4000万。在艾滋病毒感染者中,估计有200 - 400万人患有慢性HBV合并感染,400 - 500万人患有HCV合并感染。乙型肝炎病毒、丙型肝炎病毒和艾滋病毒有着共同的传播途径,但它们的流行率因地理区域而异,某些类型的接触传播它们的效率也不同。在来自西欧和美国的HIV阳性者中,慢性HBV感染率为6-14%,包括4-6%的异性恋者,9-17%的男男性行为者(MSM)和7-10%的注射吸毒者。HCV感染在25-30%的艾滋病毒阳性者中被发现; 72-95%的注射吸毒者,1-12%的男男性行为者和9-27%的异性恋者。艾滋病毒感染者的特征因合并感染的肝炎病毒而异,其流行病学模式可能会随着时间的推移而发生变化,因此需要建立监测系统来监测其感染模式,以确保预防措施具有适当的针对性。(c)2005年欧洲肝脏研究协会。Elsevier B.

Worldwide, hepatitis B virus (HBV) accounts for an estimated 370 million chronic infections, hepatitis C virus (HCV) for an estimated 130 million, and HIV for an estimated 40 million. In HIV-infected persons, an estimated 2-4 million have chronic HBV co-infection and 4-5 million have HCV co-infection. HBV, HCV and HIV share common routes of transmission, but they differ in their prevalence by geographic region and the efficiency by which certain types of exposures transmit them. Among HIV-positive persons studied from Western Europe and the USA, chronic HBV infection has been found in 6-14% overall, including 4-6% of heterosexuals, 9-17% of men who have sex with men (MSM), and 7-10% of injection drug users. HCV infection has been found in 25-30% of HIV-positive persons overall; 72-95% of injection drug users, 1-12% of MSM and 9-27% of heterosexuals. The characteristics of HIV infected persons differ according to the co-infecting hepatitis virus, their epidemiologic patterns may change over time, and surveillance systems are needed to monitor their infection patterns in order to ensure that prevention measures are targeted appropriately.
