Analysis relation between PPD skin test result and CD4 cell count in HIV positive patients

Abstract

Abstract: Objective The relation between PPD skin test result and CD₄ cell amount was analysed in HIV positive patients.Methods PPD test, CD₄ cell count and MultiSET ^TM Physician examination were applied among people doubted affection by HIV in high-risk region. Results The positive rate of PPD test was 12.5 percent among HIV-seropositive people, 28.2 percent among HIV-seronegative. HIV-seropositive rate dereased with CD₄ cell decreasing. Conclusion The positive rate of PPD test was significantly decreased among HIV-seropositive patients. This was possibly correlative with CD₄ cell decreasing.
