BACKGROUND Enhancing awareness and use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is vital to curb human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) spread. High-risk behaviors prevalent among sexually transmitted infection clinic outpatients underscore the need for increased PrEP/PEP education in this group. AIM To investigate the effects of both onsite and online health education on the knowledge of, and willingness to use, PrEP and PEP among individuals receiving PEP services. METHODS Participants were drawn from a cohort study on PEP service intervention at an STD/AIDS outpatient clinic in designated HIV/AIDS hospitals in Beijing, conducted from January 1 to June 30, 2022. Health education was provided both onsite and online during follow-up. Surveys assessing knowledge of, and willingness to use, PrEP/PEP were administered at baseline and again at 24 wk post-intervention. RESULTS A total of 112 participants were enrolled in the study; 105 completed the follow-up at week 24. The percentage of participants with adequate knowledge of, and willingness to use, PrEP significantly increased from 65.2% and 69.6% at baseline to 83.8% and 82.9% at the end of the intervention (both P < 0.05). Similarly, those with adequate knowledge of, and willingness to use, PEP increased from 74.1% and 77.7% at baseline to 92.4% and 89.5% at week 24 (P < 0.05). Being between 31 years and 40 years of age, having a postgraduate degree or higher, and reporting a monthly expenditure of RMB 5000 or more were found to be significantly associated with knowledge of PrEP and PEP (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The findings show that both onsite and online health education significantly improved the knowledge of, and increased willingness to use, PrEP and PEP in individuals utilizing PEP services.
What is already known about this topic?:The prevalence of monkeypox (mpox) infections is primarily observed among young men who engage in sexual activities with other men, and there is a possibility of sexual transmission. Co-occurring sexually transmitted infections have also been documented.What is added by this report?:In this report, we present a case of a patient in China who was simultaneously diagnosed with mpox, and acute human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. The patient exhibited symptoms of fever and widespread papules on the trunk, face, and genital area.What are the implications for public health practice?:It is crucial for health agencies to prioritize HIV testing when mpox is suspected or diagnosed in individuals with recent engagement in high-risk sexual behavior.
PurposeOngoing Monkeypox (MPX) outbreaks in countries outside Africa have unique characteristics. However, data on cohorts of confirmed cases in China is limited. The study provides important epidemiological, diagnostic, and clinical information about this disease in China.MethodsWe report a series of Chinese individuals with confirmed MPX infections identified at Beijing Youan Hospital (China) from June 10 to July 15, 2023. Samples were taken from the skin, anus, throat, and blood. An epidemiological questionnaire was used to collect demographic and clinical data. Further, we compared the MPX viral (MPXV) loads across different anatomical sites.Results66 samples were collected from 20 patients, all of whom were cisgender men. Median patient age was 29 years. Notably, 19 (95%) patients reported unprotected sexual encounters with men in the preceding month, and 13 (65%) were human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive. Among those with HIV, 12 (92%) were receiving antiretroviral therapy, and 11 (85%) had well-controlled infections (HIV viral load <40/mL). The median CD4+ T cell count was 667 cells/mm3. In the HIV-negative group, three (43%) patients were taking preexposure prophylaxis. Fifteen patients (75%) had concurrent sexually transmitted infections (50% had syphilis and 65% had HIV) and eight (40%) had HIV and syphilis co-infection. MPXV loads were significantly higher in samples from the skin (cycle threshold value [Ct value]: 19·0) and anus (Ct value: 23.0) compared to samples from the throat (Ct value: 31.0) or blood (Ct value: 34.5). All patients had skin lesions (85% of whom presented with anogenital lesions). Common systemic symptoms included fever (85%) and lymphadenopathy (55%). The median incubation period was 8 d [interquartile range (IQR): 6–16 d]. The median time from the onset of skin lesions to scab removal was 14 d (IQR: 10–16 d). No deaths or severe cases were reported.ConclusionMPXV primarily affects young homosexual men. The high MPXV viral loads in skin and anal lesions indicate that transmission most likely occurs through direct and close body contact. This study also reports high rates of HIV and syphilis co-infection. Therefore, preventive efforts should focus on homosexual men.
Mpox is a zoonotic infectious disease caused by the mpox virus (MPXV). Historically, the majority of mpox cases have been documented in Central Africa. However, since May 2022, there has been a notable rise in reported cases from regions beyond Africa. Currently, over 110 countries spanning Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and other territories have reported mpox infections. This report details a case involving a patient who identifies as a man who has sex with men (MSM) and is concurrently infected with MPXV, human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), Pneumocystis jiroveci, as well as extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB). This patient had also received a vaccination for smallpox in the past. Additionally, we provide photographic documentation charting the progression of dermatological manifestations associated with mpox. This case highlights the significance of sexual intercourse as a crucial mode of transmission for mpox. The rapid and widespread dissemination of the MPXV across various regions, especially among MSM communities, underscores the importance of enhancing preventive education efforts targeted at high-risk populations.
BackgroundVitamin D deficiency (VDD) is a worldwide disease. VDD is also associated with an increased risk of HIV-related comorbidities and mortality, and patients have a tendency to develop active tuberculosis compared to those with latent tuberculosis infection. Vitamin D supplementation may modulate HIV replication, improve TB inflammation and reduce progression of HIV-TB co-infection.MethodsWe meta-analyzed individual participant data from cohort studies, cross-sectional study, and RCTs of vitamin D in HIV group, TB group, and HIV-TB group. The primary outcomes were differences in vitamin D level and VDD prevalence between three groups, the secondary outcomes were CD4 count, HIV viral load, time to sputum smear conversion, time to culture conversion, relapse, morality, and TB score.ResultsFor vitamin D levels, the overall mean difference (MD) between HIV group and TB group was −0.21 (95% CI, −20.80–20.38; p = 0.9, I2 = 84%), HIV group and HIV-TB group was 0.87 (95% CI, −11.45–13.20; p = 0.89, I2 = 87%), and TB group and HIV-TB group was 1.17 (95% CI, −5.21–7.55; p = 0.72, I2 = 85%). For vitamin D deficiency prevalence, the overall odds ratio (OR) for HIV group versus TB group was 1.23 (95% CI, 0.46–3.31; p = 0.68; I2 = 70%), HIV group versus HIV-TB group was 1.53 (95% CI, 1.03–2.29; p = 0.04; I2 = 0%), and TB group versus HIV-TB group was 0.85 (95% CI, 0.61–1.20; p = 0.36; I2 = 22%). In HIV-TB group, the overall OR for vitamin D group versus placebo group was 0.78 (95% CI, 0.34–1.67; p = 0.52; I2 = 60%).ConclusionOur findings indicated that there were no variations in vitamin D levels between three groups. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was higher in the HIV-TB group than in the HIV group. Additionally, the administration of vitamin D supplements did not have obvious impact on CD4 count and viral load. Likewise, vitamin D had no effect on time to sputum smear conversion, time to culture conversion, relapse, 12-month morality, and TB score.
Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) emerges as a grave complication of tuberculosis in people living with HIV (PLWH). The diagnosis and treatment of TBM pose significant challenges, leading to elevated mortality rates. To comprehensively grasp the epidemiological landscape of TBM in PLWH, a systematic review and meta-analysis were meticulously undertaken. We performed a comprehensive search in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science from database inception to September 19th, 2023, with no limitations on the publication type. The search terms were HIV/AIDS terms (AIDS OR HIV OR PLWH) and TBM-related terms (tuberculous meningitis OR TBM). Studies included in this meta-analysis evaluated the incidence of TBM among PLWH, or we were able to calculate the incidence of TBM among PLWH from the research. The analysis revealed that the prevalence of TBM among PLWH was 13.6
Introduction:Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remains a significant health concern, particularly in individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) who are more susceptible to developing active TB disease. Early and accurate diagnosis of TB is crucial for effective treatment and prevention of transmission. This study aims to evaluate the potential of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) for diagnosis of suspected PTB in HIV-infected patients. Methods:This retrospective study recruited 60 HIV-infected patients with suspected PTB presenting with respiratory symptoms and abnormal chest radiographs between January 2022 and June 2023. BALF samples were collected and subjected to analysis using MALDI-TOF MS, GeneXpert, acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smear and culture. And their diagnostic performance was compared. Results:The sensitivity of MALDI⁃TOFMS for diagnosing PTB was 83.3 %, which was better than that of smear 11.9 %, culture 40.5 % or Xpert38.1 % (all p < 0.01). The area under the curve (AUC) value of MALDI⁃TOFMS was 0.889, which was better than that of smear 0.532, culture 0.675 or Xpert 0.690 (all p < 0.01). The katG315 and rpoB-RRDR 511 mutations were detected by the MALDI⁃TOFMS in two patients. Conclusion:Nucleotide MALDI-TOFMS has a good clinical performance for rapid diagnosis of PTB from BALF samples in HIV infected patients, and detects mutations of TB simultaneously.
Background and aims: Potassium-Competitive Acid Blockers (P-CABs) have been used in Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication therapies in recent years. However, the efficacy and safety of P-CABs compared to Proton -Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) in this setting remain controversial. Methods: The efficacy and safety of P-CABs and PPIs for H. pylori eradication were compared in a meta-analysis based on a systematic literature search of major electronic databases for relevant Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs). Results: Seven studies and 1,168 patients were included. The pooled eradication rate determined by Intention-To -Treat (ITT) analysis was 90.2% for P-CAB-based and 75.5% for PPI-based triple therapy (pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.17 [1.08-1.28], p < 0.001). The Per-Protocol (PP) analysis also demonstrated significant superior-ity of P-CABs (pooled eradication rate = 92.4% vs. 77.8%; pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.14 [1.03-1.26], p < 0.01). In a subgroup evaluation, P-CABs were significantly better than PPIs as a first-line eradication therapy, in both the ITT analysis (pooled eradication rate = 91.8% vs. 76.4%; pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.18 [1.10-1.28], p < 0.0001) and the PP analysis (pooled eradication rate = 93.0% vs. 78.6%; pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.13 [1.02 - 1.26], p < 0.05). However, P-CABs were not superior to PPIs when administered as salvage therapy, as deter-mined in the ITT (75.0% vs. 66.0%, pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.11 [0.69-1.78], p = 0.66) and PP (85.7% vs. 70.0%, pooled RR [95% CI] = 1.20 [0.82-1.75], p = 0.34) analyses. In a subgroup analysis limited to Japanese patients, both the ITT analysis (pooled eradication rate = 89.6% vs. 73.9%; RR [95% CI] = 1.21 [1.14 - 1.29], p < 0.01) and the PP analysis (pooled eradication rate = 92.0% vs. 75.7%; RR [95% CI] = 1.18 [1.06 - 1.32], p < 0.01) showed that P-CABs were significantly superior compared to PPIs as triple eradication therapy. However, in the subgroup analysis of patients from other countries, there was no significant difference in either the ITT analysis (pooled eradication rate = 93.8% vs. 85.2%; RR [95% CI] = 1.10 [0.99-1.22], p = 0.07) or PP analysis (pooled eradication rate = 95.0% vs. 90.8%; RR [95% CI] = 1.05 [0.98-1.14], p = 0.17). The incidence of adverse events associated with the two regimens did not significantly differ (P-CABs vs. PPIs: 33.6% vs. 40.0%; RR [95% CI] = 0.84 [0.71???1.00], p = 0.05). The incidence of serious adverse events and dropout rate due to adverse events also did not differ (p = 0.44 and p = 0.67, respectively). Conclusions: The efficacy of P-CAB-based triple therapy is superior to that of PPI-based triple therapy as a first-line approach to H. pylori eradication, particularly in Japanese patients. As salvage therapy, the efficacy of the two treatments did not significantly differ. The tolerability of P-CAB-based and PPI-based triple therapy was compara-ble, as was the incidence of adverse events.

BACKGROUND Constipation is one of the most important nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, and constipation of different severities is closely related to the pathogenesis of PD. PD with constipation (PDC) is considered a unique type of constipation, but its mechanism of formation and factors affecting its severity have been less reported. Understanding the gastrointestinal motility characteristics and constipation classification of PDC patients is essential to guide the treatment of PDC. In this study, the colonic transit test and high-resolution anorectal manometry were used to identify the intestinal motility of PDC to provide a basis for the treatment of PDC. AIM To investigate the clinical classification of PDC, to clarify its characteristics of colonic motility and rectal anal canal pressure, and to provide a basis for further research on the pathogenesis of PDC. METHODS Twenty PDC patients and 20 patients with functional constipation (FC) who were treated at Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from August 6, 2018 to December 2, 2019 were included. A colonic transit test and high-resolution anorectal manometry were performed to compare the differences in colonic transit time, rectal anal canal pressure, and constipation classification between the two groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in sex, age, body mass index, or duration of constipation between the two groups. It was found that more patients in the PDC group exhibited difficulty in defecating than in the FC group, and the difference was statistically significant. The rectal resting pressure, anal sphincter resting pressure, intrarectal pressure, and anal relaxation rate in the PDC group were significantly lower than those in the FC group. The proportion of paradoxical contractions in the PDC group was significantly higher than that in the FC group. There was a statistically significant difference in the type composition ratio of defecatory disorders between the two groups (P < 0.05). The left colonic transit time, rectosigmoid colonic transit time (RSCTT), and total colonic transit time were prolonged in PDC and FC patients compared to normal values. The patients with FC had a significantly longer right colonic transit time and a significantly shorter RSCTT than patients with PDC (P < 0.05). Mixed constipation predominated in PDC patients and FC patients, and no significant difference was observed. CONCLUSION Patients with PDC and FC have severe functional dysmotility of the colon and rectum, but there are certain differences in segmental colonic transit time and rectal anal canal pressure between the two groups.
