AIM:To study the prevalence and risk factors associated with triple infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis B virus (HBV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV) in an urban clinic population. METHODS:Retrospective chart review of 5639 patients followed at St.Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital HIV Clinic (Center for Comprehensive Care) in New York City,USA from January 1999 to May 2007.The following demographic characteristics were analyzed: age,sex,race and HIV risk factors.A multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the influence of demographic factors on acquisition of these viruses. RESULTS:HIV/HBV,HIV/HCV and HIV/HBV/HCV infections were detected in 252/5639 (4.47%), 1411/5639 (25.02%) and 89/5639 (1.58%) patients, respectively.HIV/HBV co-infections were associated with male gender (OR 1.711;P=0.005),black race (OR 2.091,P<0.001),men having sex with men (MSM) (OR 1.747;P=0.001),intravenous drug use (IDU) (OR 0.114;P<0.001),IDU and heterosexual activity (OR 0.247;P=0.018),or unknown (OR 1.984;P=0.004). HIV/HCV co-infections were associated with male gender (OR 1.241;P=0.011),black race (OR 0.788; P=0.036),MSM (OR 0.565;P<0.001),IDU (OR 8.956; P<0.001),IDU and heterosexual activity (OR 9.106; P<0.001),IDU and MSM (OR 9.179;P<0.001),or transfusion (OR 3.224;P<0.001).HIV/HBV/HCV co- infections were associated with male gender (OR 2.156; P=0.015),IDU (OR 6.345;P<0.001),IDU and heterosexual activity (OR 9.731;P<0.001),IDU and MSM (OR 9.228;P<0.001),or unknown (OR 4.219; P=0.007). CONCLUSION:Our study demonstrates that co- infection with HBV/HCV/HIV is significantly associated with IDU.These results highlight the need to intensify education and optimal models of integrated care, particularly for populations with IDU,to reduce the risk of viral transmission.
