[The serologic study on the blood transmission origin of HIV].
OBJECTIVE
To study the origin of HIV blood spread in China.


METHODS
Markers of HBV and HCV in 62 HIV - infections sera (27 blood donors and 35 i.v. drug users) were detected by EIA.


RESULTS
The results show that the total HBV infection was 53.2% (33/62) and anti - HCV positive 95.2% (59/62). Super - infection of HIV, HBV, HCV was 51.6% (32/60) and super - infection of HIV, HCV and HIV, HBV were 27.4% (17/62) and 1.6% (1/62). Comparing the markers of HBV and anti - HCV between blood donors and i.v. drug users, there was no statistical significant difference (P > 0.05). The super - infection of HIV, HBV, HCV and HIV, HCV and HIV, HBV were also no statistical differences (P > 0.05) between two groups.


CONCLUSIONS
Results indicated that a common infection mechanism might exist between Chinese HIV - infection blood donors and i.v. drug users.
