    Notes: Between February 1987 and February 1990, we studied 737 antibody anti HIV-1 positive (AbHIV +) subjects referred to the Infectious Diseases Institute of the University of Turin (Italy) in order to evaluate types, prevalences, relations with clinical stages, distributions in risk-groups and prognostic significances of HIV-1 related oral lesions. The study evidenced the high prevalence of oral lesions, especially mycoses, in the investigated population: 40.3% of the patients showed, in fact, HIV-1 related oral lesions. The 37 months follow-up of 55 AbHIV+ with oral hairy leukoplakia (HL) and 101 patients with oral candidiasis (OC), demonstrated that the probability of developing AIDS in patient with HL was 0.381 at 15, 0.635 at 25 and 0.824 at 37 months. In the patients with OC the probability was 0.294 at 15 months, 0.524 at 25 and 0.781 at 37 months.

    Notes: A cohort of 69 children born to HIV-1 positive women was studied to evaluate types, prevalences and relationships to clinical stages of HIV-1-related oral lesions. In addition, relationships among C. albicans biotypes, clinical features of oral candidiasis and HIV-1 disease were investigated. C. albicans biotypes did not correlate with clinical features of oral lesions, disease stages and CD4+ lymphocyte count. Of 8 patients with recurrent oral candidiasis. 4 changed clinical features and 5 changed biotype. Our study pointed out the high frequency (28.9%) of oral lesions, especially caused by fungi and the importance of the examination of the oral cavity in children born to HIV-1 positive women.

    Notes: Abstract Between March 1986 and March 1994, the seroconversion to HBV associated to the seroconversion to HIV was investigated in 120 HIV seroconverters drawn from 2368 i.v. drug misusers screened for HIV, HBV and STDs. Among the 185 individuals susceptible to HIV and HBV at intake (41/120 HIV seroconverters and 144/364 HIV-negative controls), HBV seroconversion was associated with the seroconversion to HIV (p=0.006) and history of more than 3 sexual pratners per year (p=0.000). Only the history of more than 3 partners per year remained associated with the HBV seroconversion in the conditional regression. The associated seroconversion to HIV and HBV was linked to the short period of i.v. drug injections (p=0.032), history of more than 3 partners per year (p=0.000) and more than 3 i.v. drug injections per day (p=0.016). Compared to the seroconverters to HBV alone, the seroconverters to HBV and HIV were likely to have higher frequency of i.v. drug injection per day on univariate (p=0.031) and multivariate analysis (p=0.024). The seroconverters to both the viruses differed from the seroconverters to HIV alone in the year of drug debut (p=0.045), short period of i.v. drug use (p=0.048) and high frequence of injection per day (p=0.008). The multivariate analysis confirmed only the association with high frequency of injection per day (p=0.033). Higher risk of HIV seroconversion from the debut of i.v. drug use was observed in the subjects with concurrent HBV seroconversion (Log-Rank test:p=0.0008).
