Seroprevalence of HIV infection among paediatric tuberculosis patients in Agra, India: A hospital-based study
چکیده انگلیسی
HIV-positive children are more likely to suffer from prolonged fever, weight loss, failure to thrive, developmental delay, stunted growth, cough, anorexia, lethargy, lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) and hepatosplenomegaly while HIV negative are more likely to suffer from fever, diarrhoea, lymphadenitis, pallor and LRTI. 82.60% (19/23) of these TB patients had a history of positive contact with HIV, i.e. one of the parents was HIV-infected. The mode of transmission of HIV infection among paediatric TB patients was perinatal as revealed during the counselling sessions (pre-test and post-test) of both the parents.
