Frequency of hepatitis and HIV co-infection markers in blood donors at the Hospital Professor Bocar Sidy Sall of Kati-Mali

“…The majority of donors were male with a sex ratio of 10.79. This result is comparable to those observed by Mayomo et al [5] in 2019 in Cameroon, Bah et al [6] in 2016 , Conde [7] in 2018 in an epidemiological study of HBV/HIV co-infection among PLWHIV at the UHC Kati , Traore [8] in 2014 at the department of infectious diseases at point G, Kone [9] 2010 at CESAC Bamako and Commune IV all in Mali , Namululi et al [10] 2012 in Congo , Olawumi et al [11] 2016 in Nigeria , Kra et al [12] in 2007 in Ivory Coast ; who had found respectively 14.45 ; 15.63 ; 0.67 ; 1.3 ; 3.11 ; 2.3 ; 4.94 and 2.75 in favor of men, on the other hand different from those observed by Kamande et al [13] in 2016 in Kenya , BA [14] in 2003 in a study carried out in three populations (CESAC, pregnant women of the CPN, INRSP) in Mali, Ntagirabiri et al [15] in 2012 in Burundi in a study of HIV/HCV co-infection within a population of PLWHA , Bivigou-Mboumba et al [16] in 2017 in Gabon ; who had found 1.05; 1.88; 2.18 and 2.77 in favor of women. The fact that there are fewer female donors could be explained by the presence of certain contraindications specific to women, such as pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding for less than 6 months and the menstrual period.…”
