Abstract | Background
HTLV-1 infection alters the immune function and
increases the risk of several infectious diseases. In this
meta-analysis, we assess the association between HTLV-
1/2 and active tuberculosis (TB).
Methods
Four databases were searched for relevant articles that
describe the frequency of HTLV- 1/2 infection among
TB patients and control groups of healthy individuals or
patients without a history of TB. Data were analyzed
using the EasyMA software.
Results
The search yielded two hundred and eight articles. Six
met the inclusion criteria and were included in the
meta-analysis. The estimated relative risk of HTLV- 1/2
infection in TB patients was 3.25 times higher than in
the population based control groups.
Conclusion
Patients with active TB have a higher risk of HTLV- 1/2
infection. Prospective studies involving latent tuberculosis
infection (LTBI) in HTLV-1-infected individuals are
necessary to evaluate the potential benefit of TB
chemoprophylaxis. | pt_BR |
