Abstract
The key epidemiological indicators were investigated over time forthe bacilli Calmette-Guérin (BCG) (BCG-M) vaccination of HIV-infected children. BCG-induced immunity and vaccination safety were studied in 376 children, including 131 with an established diagnosis of HIV infection, 141 with a perinatal HIV infection contact, and 104 children born to HIV-negative women. There were 60 cases of tuberculosis among the vaccinated. BCG vaccination of children born to HIV-infected women, but to HIV-uninfected ones was ascertained to show a 4-fold decrease in the risk of tuberculosis at an early age and in that of disseminated tuberculosis (including meningitis) (OR= 3.78; p0.05).
BCG vaccination of the HIV-infected children did not reduce the risk of disseminated processes: their proportion among the vaccinated and the unvaccinated was 28.9 and 20.3%, respectively (p>0.05). BCG postvaccination immunity was determined in only one third (29.7%) of the vaccinated in the presence of a small scar in 76.9% of cases.
