Prevalence and incidence of HEV among men using HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis: A sub-study of the ANRS IPERGAY trial.
Journal of clinical virology : the official publication of the Pan American Society for Clinical Virology(2023)
摘要
BACKGROUND:Men who have sex with men (MSM) have an increased risk of infection by pathogens transmitted by the oro-fecal route. Here, we investigated the seroprevalence and incidence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in 416 MSM included in the ANRS IPERGAY PrEP trial.
RESULTS:Among the 62 (14.9% (95% CI: [11.6%-18.7%]) seropositive for HEV at inclusion, the only factor associated with testing seropositive for HEV was older age. Geographical origin, use of recreational drugs, number of sexual partners, status for HAV and bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) at inclusion were not associated. Among the 342 HEV-seronegative patients with available samples, 9 seroconverted after a median of follow-up of 2.1 years (IQR (interquartile range): [1.6; 3.0]).
CONCLUSION:Overall, the HEV incidence was 1.19% per 100 person-years [95% CI: 0.54%; 2.26%]. Sexual transmission does not seem to be a major route of HEV infection in MSM, unlike HAV.
