Prevalence of immunity to hepatitis viruses A and B in a large cohort of HIV/HCV-coinfected patients, and factors associated with HAV and HBV vaccination

摘要

Hepatitis A (HAV) and B (HBV) vaccination is strongly recommended for HIV-infected patients, especially those with hepatitis C coinfection. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of antibodies directed against HAV and HBV in a large cohort of HIV/HCV-coinfected patients, and to identify factors associated with HAV and HBV vaccination.
