Prevalence and risk factors for Hepatitis C and HIV-1 infections among pregnant women in Central Brazil
BMC Infectious Diseases, 07/28/09
Costa ZB et al. – The prevalence of HIV and HCV infections were low among pregnant women, with high acceptability rates in the opt–in strategy in primary care. Older maternal age was a risk factor for HCV and antenatal HCV testing does not fulfil the requirements for screening recommendation. The finding of higher risk of HIV–1 infection among black women despite being in consonance with the HIV–1 ethnic pattern in some American regions cannot be ruled out to be a surrogate marker of socio–economic condition.
