Аннотация

OBJECTIVE

This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of HIV infection in North India, as there are scanty reports from this part of India.

METHODS

The prevalence of HIV infection was determined by serological tests for HIV antibodies in children born to a seropositive mother or suffering from chronic diarrhea, failure to thrive or disseminated tuberculosis.

RESULTS

One hundred and twelve children were tested of which ten were seropositive (8.9%). This included six children born to seropositive mother (22%), two with chronic diarrhea (4%), one with failure to thrive (5%) and one child with disseminated tuberculosis (6.6%).

CONCLUSION

HIV infection is an emerging reality in New Delhi. A clinically directed screening can help detect more cases.
