1 Risk of tuberculosis following HIV seroconversion in low- burden tuberculosis countries Sara Lodi, Antonella d’Arminio Monforte, Julia del Amo, Sophie Abgrall, Caroline Sabin, Charles Morrison, Hansjakob Furrer, Roberto Muga, Kholoud Porter, Enrico Girardi on behalf of the CASCADE collaboration in EuroCoord

2 Objectives and methods Knowledge of clinical epidemiology of TB risk at all stages of HIV infection is needed to inform on time for TB preventive interventions in low-burden TB countries We used CASCADE data from patients with well known date of HIV seroconversion in low-burden TB countries to:  Estimate TB incidence rates following HIV seroconversion in the pre-cART era  Establish if TB risk after cART differs from post- seroconversion risk  Explore role of immunosuppression on the risk of TB following cART initiation

6 Implications  Risk of TB increases with time since HIV seroconversion. Prevention should be implemented in early HIV infection.  Both post-seroconversion and post-cART TB rates are higher than those recorded in general population (WHO 2009). HIV infected patients are still at high risk of TB.  Current CD4 cell level is the dominant predictor of TB risk after cART initiation. TB prevention would be improved by antiretroviral treatment policies that minimise the time patients spend with low CD4 count.
