RESUMO
Desde a década de 90 o Instituto Adolfo Lutz de São Paulo (IAL) tem realizado o diagnóstico da infecção por Vírus Linfotrópicos de Células T Humanas dos tipos 1 e 2 (HTLV-1 e HTLV-2) e, desde então, têm sido reportadas as dificuldades principalmente no diagnóstico de HTLV-2, em especial em pacientes infectados pelo HIV-1. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar várias técnicas de diagnóstico disponíveis no momento atual (kits comerciais e testes in house) e estabelecer o melhor algoritmo para ser empregado no diagnóstico de pacientes infectados pelo HIV-1. A população analisada foi composta por dois grupos provenientes de Serviços de Assistência Especializados em HIV/AIDS de São Paulo um pioneiro [Grupo 1 (G1), n=1.608] e outro com histórico mais recente [Grupo 2 (G2), n=1.383]. Ambos os grupos foram formados, na maioria, por indivíduos do sexo masculino... (AU).
ABSTRACT
Since the 90 decade, the Instituto Adolfo Lutz (IAL) has performed the diagnosis of Human T-cell Lymphotropic Virus type 1 and type 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2), and thenceforth the difficulties in diagnosing HTLV-2 have been reported, mostly in HIV-infected patients. The present study aimed at evaluating the several diagnostic techniques currently available (commercial kits and in-house assays), and to establish the best algorithm to be employed for diagnosing HTLV-1/-2 in patients infected with HIV-1. The study population was composed by two patient groups attended at HIV/AIDS specialized services care in São Paulo the pioneer one [Group 1 (G1), n=1,608], and the other with the most recent historical health setting [Group 2 (G2), n=1,383. The majority of the both groups were composed by male patients...(AU).
