Overview

Retrospective analysis reveals 30.15% seroprevalence of HEV among HIV-positive individuals, indicating risk factors related to WHO stages.

Key Points

  • The study found a seroprevalence rate of 30.15% for hepatitis E in PLWH, highlighting a significant public health issue.
  • IgG positivity was observed in 30.00% of PLWH, significantly exceeding the 17.67% rate in HIV-negative attendees.
  • Advanced WHO HIV stage (III/IV) was identified as an independent risk factor for HEV co-infection among PLWH.
  • These findings emphasize the need for HEV screening protocols in public health strategies targeting people living with HIV.
