Candidíase oral e leucoplasia pilosa como marcadores de progressão da infecção pelo HIV em pacientes brasileiros

Abstract: Candidíase oral (CO) e leucoplasia pilosa (LP) são importantes indicadores da progressão da infecção pelo vírus da imunodeficiência humana (HIV) para o quadro de AIDS, principalmente em locais onde exames específicos são inacessíveis. OBJETO: Relacionar CO e LP ao número de células CD4+ e à carga viral (CV) em pacientes brasileiros HIV-positivos, confirmando-as como marcadores clínicos confiáveis de progressão da doença. FORMA DE ESTUDO: Coorte longitudinal. CASUÍSTICA E MÉTODO: Avaliamos prospectivamente 124 … Show more

“…9,11,17,30,33 It is noteworthy that several authors described OHL as a marker of HIV infection progression. 13,34,35 Thus, the relatively low frequency of this lesion in the population of the present study suggests an indicator of HIV control as a result of combination ART. Patton et al 36 reported that HIV-infected patients who present OHL only among those with VL > 20,000 copies/ mL, regardless of the TCD4 count.…”

“…Miziara, Lima and Cortina 35 demonstrated that patients with candidiasis or OHL had lower TCD4 lymphocyte counts and higher VL values, when compared to patients that did not express these manifestations clinically. A study carried out by Ferreira et al 31 demonstrated a higher prevalence of lesions in the oral mucosal lesions in patients with TCD4 count < 200 cells/mm 3 and a higher prevalence of these lesions in patients with high VL values.…”

“…2,14 As lesões orais mais frequentes na doença Aids estão mais associadas com a supressão imune do que com a alta carga viral, servindo então como marcadores clínicos potenciais da viremia pelo HIV e a consequente destruição do sistema imune com a progressão da doença. 6,14,19,20 A presença de lesões orais, isto é, candidose oral e leucoplasia pilosa, em pacientes infectados pelo vírus HIV é um forte indicativo de que a contagem de células TCD4+ desses pacientes esteja em níveis menores e a carga viral esteja aumentada. 6,13,12,19 Porém, o padrão de infecções oportunistas pelo HIV está mudando após o advento da HAART.…”
