BackgroundClinical guidelines for the prevention of opportunistic infections in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals have been developed on the basis of natural history data collected in the USA. The objective of this study was to estimate the incidence of primary opportunistic infections in HIV-infected individuals in geographically distinct cohorts in France.MethodsWe conducted our study on 2664 HIV-infected patients from the Tourcoing AIDS Reference Centre and the hospital-based information system of the Groupe d'Epidémiologie Clinique du SIDA en Aquitaine enrolled from January 1987 to September 1995 and followed through December 1995. We estimated: (1) CD4-adjusted incidence rates of seven primary opportunistic infections in the absence of prophylaxis for that specific infection or any antiretroviral drugs other than zidovudine; and (2) CD4 lymphocyte count decline.ResultsThe highest incidence rates for all opportunistic infections studied occurred in patients with CD4 counts <200/μl. With CD4 counts <50/μl, the most common opportunistic infections were toxoplasmic encephalitis (12.6 per 100 person-years) andPneumocystis cariniipneumonia (11.4 per 100 person-years).Mycobacterium tuberculosiswas the least common opportunistic infection (<5.0/100 person-years). Even with CD4 counts >300/μl, cases ofPneumocystis cariniipneumonia and toxoplasmic encephalitis were reported. The mean CD4 lymphocyte decline per month was 4.6 cells/μl. There was a significant association between HIV risk behaviour and the incidence of cytomegalovirus infection, between calendar year and the incidence ofPneumocystis cariniipneumonia, toxoplasmic encephalitis andCandida esophagitis, and between geographical area and the incidence ofPneumocystis cariniipneumonia and cytomegalovirus infection.ConclusionsGeographical differences exist in the incidence of HIV-related opportunistic infections. These results can be used to define local priorities for prophylaxis of opportunistic infections.
