Abstract

To examine whether cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection could accelerate progression of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection to AIDS, serological studies were done on 108 HIV-infected haemophiliacs. In the 1.3-9 years from time of first recognised HIV seroconversion, the age-adjusted risk of CDC group IV disease in CMV-seropositive patients was 2.5 times that in CMV-seronegative patients. CMV-seropositive patients were also more likely to have detectable p24 antigenaemia. Survival analysis showed that CMV-seropositive patients were at greater risk of HIV disease than CMV-seronegative patients from about 2 years after HIV seroconversion. Thus CMV infection is associated with a more rapid progression to HIV disease.
