“…Among patients with HIV, OBI frequency was very low (three subjects, 0.6%), and in all three, the HBV load was lower than 100 IU/mL, so it is not surprising that HBsAg was negative by both the conventional and the highly sensitive assay. The very low ratio of active HBV is most likely linked to the fact that most of those patients were HIV-RNA-suppressed due to antiretroviral treatment, as most current drug regimens for HIV treatment, such as lamivudine, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, and tenofovir alafenamide, are also active against HBV [ 1 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. The occurrence of OBI reactivation in people infected by HIV is uncommon, usually below 0.02 cases per 100 persons-year [ 17 , 18 ].…”
