CHILDREN AND THEIR CLINICAL PROFILE

SPMCHI, SMS Medical College, Jaipur
INTRODUCTION
• Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading killer among people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
• More than 33 million people now live with HIV/AIDS, out of them 2.5 million are under the age of 15yr(UNICEF report 2010)
• At least one in four deaths among people living with HIV can be attributed to TB.
• Addressing the TB and HIV epidemics are key priorities for WHO.
HIV Prevalence in Incident TB Cases 2010
• Global 23.0%
• India 5.0%
• Rajasthan 2.0%

CONCLUSION
• Magnitude of HIV sero-positivity is 6.98% in Tubercular
children.
• Co-existence of HIV is more with Pulmonary,
Disseminated & Miliary tuberculosis than Extra-
pulmonary tuberculosis.
• HIV positive children suffer more often with severe
symptoms.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• Health personnel need to recognize such
dual infection and take proper steps to
manage the epidemic.
• HIV screening should be carried out in all
tubercular children.

Study the Magnitude of HIV Infection in Tubercular Children and Their Clinical ProfileABSTRACTIntroduction: Tuberculosis was noted to be the most frequent cause of death amongst people living with HIV not only in India but all over the world.Aims and objectives: To know the magnitude and differences in clinical profile of HIV infection in tubercular children.Study design and setting: Hospital based cross-sectional & descriptive study.Material & method: Study group included patients attending hospital during period Sept. 2011 to Sept. 2012, diagnosed with tuberculosis as per NACO guidelines and screened for HIV infection.Results: Out of 315 tubercular children, 22 were HIV positive giving a magnitude of 6.98%, Most patients were in the school going age (5-12yr)group (43.80%). The male to female ratio was1.21:1. Mean weight for age was 69.94%. History of contact with tuberculosis was present in 47.94%. Out of HIV positive cases Fever(81.81%),weight loss(81.81%) and weakness(81.81%) were most frequent complaints followed by cough(68.18%). Examination showed hepatosplenomegaly(41.81%) and lymphadenopathy(18.18%). Chest X-ray revealed miliary findings in 10.8%.Out of total number, 57.46% were rural patients. 52.06% of cases had one or more extra-pulmonary tubercular sites, and 03.17% disseminated or military tuberculosis. BCG vaccination was seen in only 34.92% cases. Overall Mantoux test positivity was 8.49%.Conclusion: Increasing magnitude of HIV seropositivity with positive patients more likely to suffer from pulmonary tuberculosis while HIV negative with extra pulmonary involvement. HIV-positive children suffer from prolonged symptoms. Health personnel need to recognize such dual infection and take proper steps to manage the epidemic. HIV screening should be carried out in patients with prolonged illness resistant to usual mode of treatment.Keywords: HIV, Paediatric tuberculosis, Magnitude, seropositivity

Revision accepted: November 28, 2003.
ABSTRECTThis prospective study was carried out in the pediatric ward and outpatient department of a tertiary care centre to estimate the prevalence of HIV seropositivity in children with tuberculosis. Two hundred and fifty consecutive children below 12 years of age with (pulmonary and Extrapulmonary) tuberculosis diagnosed between March 1999 and July 2000 were screened for HIV infection. A patient was labeled as HIV positive if two consecutive ELISA tests were found positive using different antigen/principle. Supplemental western blot test was also done. Parents ofseropositive children were also screened for HIV infection and tuberculosis. Total 5 cases were HIV positive giving a seroprevalence of 2%. All the five patients had disseminated tuberculosis. We suggest regular screening of children with disseminated/miliary tuberculosis for HIV co-infection.

• “PREVALENCE OF HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS INFECTION IN CHILDREN WITH TUBERCULOSIS” conducted by Shahab et al. from the AMU, UP, India,
CONCLUSION: prevalence of HIV seropositivity in children up to age of 12 year with tuberculosis are 2%(INDIAN PEDIATRICS,VOLUME 41__JUNE 17, 2004)
1-An study conducted by Hussain et al.“Seroprevalence of HIV infection among pediatric tuberculosis patients in Agra, India”: from 2003 to 2004, CONCLUSION:•Seroprevalence of HIV infection among paediatric TB patients in Agra is 8.51% (23/270).• Among the HIV-positive children with TB, 86.75% were of pulmonary and 13.04% were of extra-pulmonary type.
2-Recently published sentinel surveillance report by National AIDS Control Organization (NACO) shows an alarming HIV seroprevalence of 9.0 per cent amongst TB patients form four districts, each one in high prevalence State (12).

General InformationThe SD BIOLINE HIV-1/2 test is an immunochromatographic test for the qualitative detection of antibodies of all isotyoes (IgG, IgM, IgA) specific to HIV-1 including subtype O and HIV-2 simultaneously, in human serum, plasma or whole blood.•3rd Generation Method (Direct Sandwich Method, Ag-Ab-Ag) •Serum, Plasma, Whole Blood •Detects all antibodies including Subtype "O" •Highly sensitive, even to IgM during early infection stage •Differentiation of HIV-1 and HIV-2 by clear 3-line formation. •Sensitivity: 100%, Specificity : 99.8% •Capture Ag: HIV-1 (p24, gp41),HIV-2 (gp36)Ag •Evaluated by WHO (Sensitivity 100%, Specificty 99.3%) •Procured by WHO,UNICEF, etc. •Long shelf life: 24 months at Room Temperature
S D RAPID KIT TEST
PRINCIPLE OF THE TESTHIV antigens are immobilized on a porous immunofiltration membrane. Sample and reagents pass through the membrane and are absorbed into the underlying absorbent. As the patient's sample passes through the membrane, HIV antibodies, if present, bind to the Immobilized antigens. Conjugate binds to the Fc portion of the HIV antibodies to give distinct pinkish purple DOT against a white background. (Fig.-3)
LIMITATIONS OF THE TEST1. The kit works best when used with fresh samples. Samples which have been frozen and thawed several times contain particulates which can block the membrane, hence resulting in improper flow of reagents and high background colour which may make the interpretation of results difficult.2. Optimum test performance depends on strict adherence to the test procedure as described in this manual. Any deviation from test procedure may lead to erratic results.3. HIV-1 and HIV-2 viruses share many morphological and biological characteristics. It is likely that due to this, their antibodies have a cross reactivity of 30-70%. Appearance of test for HIV-1& /or HIV-2 antibodies on the test device does not necessarily imply co-infection from HIV-1 & HIV-2.4. Some samples show cross reactivity for HIV antibodies. Following factors are found to cause false positive HIV antibody test results: Naturally occurring antibodies, Passive immunization, Leprosy, Tuberculosis, Myco-bacterium avium, Herpes simplex, Hypergamma-globulinemia, Malignant neoplasms, Rheumatoid arthritis, Tetanus vaccination, Autoimmune diseases, Blood Transfusion, Multiple myeloma, Haemophelia, Heat treated specimens, Lipemic serum, Anti-nuclear antibodies, T-cell leukocyte antigen antibodies, Epstein Barr virus, HLA antibodies and other retroviruses.5. This is only a screening test. All samples detected reactive must be confirmed by using HIV Western Blot. Therefore for a definitive diagnosis, the patient’s clinical history, symptomatology as well as serological data, should be considered. The results should be reported only after complying with above procedure.
