Description
Summary:The prevalence of anemia in human immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV) infection was quite high ranging from 1.3 to 95% depends on the stadium of HIV infection. Anemia, cluster differentiation 4 (CD4), and viral load were known as the independent risk factors for death. Body mass index (BMI) is an important risk factor for anemia and progression of the HIV infection. A cohort study had been conducted to evaluate the response of therapy, and deaths as the end point, and to calculate the opportunity of death by combining the degree of anemia, BMI, and CD4 in HIV-AIDS patients. The subjects were patients in Teratai Clinic Dr. Hasan Sadikin Hospital-Bandung from January until June 2008. During 6 months of follow-up from July−December 2008 there were 534 patients in the data base of Teratai Clinic, only 458 continuing the therapy, thirty eight patients were dropped-out, eight patients moved to other hospital and 28 patients died. The prevalence of anemia from previous study of those 534 patients was 41.6%. After 6 months of follow-up, there were 26 deaths among anemic patients and 2 deaths in nonanemic patients. The combination of moderate-severe anemia, CD4 ≤50/mm3 and BMI <18.5 showed the highest opportunity of death, in this study was 80%. In conclusions, the important risk factors of deaths in HIV-AIDS patients were CD4, grade of anemia, and BMI.
