A Multicenter Prospective Clinical Cohort Study on the Pathogen Spectrum of HIV/AIDS Complicated With Infection

March 1, 2024 updated by: Jiajia Chen, Zhejiang University

The goal of this observational study is to determine the incidence and spectrum of opportunistic infections among Chinese HIV/AIDS patients at this stage, to find intervention targets, to construct an early warning prediction model, and to give an individualized program with integrated immune function to obtain salvage opportunities for patients.The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Describe the populations and characteristics of pathogenic microorganisms involved in HIV co-infection, map the spatial and temporal changes in the infection system of pathogenic microorganisms, and evaluate their impact on disease regression.
  • Explore the mechanism of interaction between pathogenic microorganisms and host autoimmune deficiencies.
  • Discover early warning and predictive markers and immunological indicators of pathogenic microorganisms, and explore new technologies and programs to reduce the mortality rate of infection.

Detailed Description

AIDS is a chronic systemic disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which leads to reduced or defective immune function, causing a variety of serious opportunistic infections and tumors, and a significant increase in the mortality rate. This study focuses on the impact of secondary infections on the clinical prognosis of patients with HIV/AIDS, and intends to establish a prospective, multicenter clinical cohort of HIV/AIDS patients with combined infections with a variety of pathogens, to map the infectious pathogens, to correlate the characteristics of the basic immune status with the spectrum of pathogens of secondary infections, and to establish a monitoring and early-warning system of secondary infections, so that we can explore safe and effective treatments to further reduce the disease and mortality rate.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
quick SEPSIS RELATED ORGAN FAILURE ASSESSMENT(qSOFA) at 4 weeks
Time Frame: 4 weeks
qSOFA consists of 3 items: altered state of consciousness, systolic blood pressure ≤ 100 mmHg, and respiratory rate ≥ 22 respirations/min. 2 or more items, i.e., a qSOFA score of ≥ 2, are considered to be suspicious for sepsis.Higher qSOFA scores are associated with a higher risk of patient death.
4 weeks
Secondary infections in patients with HIV/AIDS at 4 weeks
Time Frame: 4 weeks
Site of infection, pathogen results such as blood or body fluid pathogen cultures or Next-generation sequencing(NGS) results.
4 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Survival rate
Time Frame: 12 weeks
12-week survival in patients with HIV/AIDS co-infection with secondary infections.
12 weeks
