[The detection of viral hepatitis markers in HIV-infected patients].
The determination of markers of virus hepatitides B, C and D in 63 registered HIV-infected persons was made. The use of Russian and foreign EIA systems permitted the detection of markers of virus hepatitides 30.1% of HIV-infected persons, including 26.3% of children. Markers of hepatitis B virus were found to occur in children and adults with the same frequency. Out of 65 persons registered in the Center, 3 persons (4.6%) were drug addicts; of these, 2 were found to have antibodies to antigens of hepatitis viruses. Such persons constituted 3.8% of the total number of HIV-infected persons. Among 8 newly detected and registered HIV-infected adults, 2 were found to have antibodies to hepatitis B virus (of these, 1 used drugs intravenously).
