Abstrakt: | Objectives: HIV and malaria coinfection impacts disease management and clinical outcomes. This study investigated hematologic abnormalities in malaria-asymptomatic people living with HIV (PLHIV) in regions with differing malaria transmission. Methods: Study participants were enrolled in the African Cohort Study: two sites in Kenya, one in Uganda, and one in Nigeria. Data was collected at enrollment and every 6 months. Logistic regression estimated odds ratios for associations between HIV/malaria status and anemia, thrombocytopenia, and leucopenia. Results: Samples from 1587 participants with one or more visits comprising 1471 (92.7%) from PLHIV and 116 (7.3%) without HIV were analyzed. Parasite point prevalence significantly differed across the study sites (P <0.001). PLHIV had higher odds of anemia, with males at lower odds compared to females; the odds of anemia decreased with age, reaching significance in those ≥50 years old. Participants in Kisumu, Kenya had higher odds of anemia compared to other sites. PLHIV had higher odds of leucopenia, but malaria co-infection was not associated with worsened leucopenia. The odds of thrombocytopenia were decreased in HIV/malaria co-infection compared to the uninfected group. Conclusion: Hematological parameters are important indicators of health and disease. In PLHIV with asymptomatic malaria co-infection enrolled across four geographic sites in three African countries, abnormalities in hematologic parameters differ in different malaria transmission settings and are region-specific.
