Background § HIV prevalence |2015 o 36. 7 million worlwide / 25. 5 million (69. 9%) in Sub-Saharan Africa § TB burden in PLHIV |2015 o 1. 17 million cases worlwide /834, 000 (71. 3%) in Africa o 390, 000 deaths worlwide/ 300, 000 (76. 9%) in Africa § TB incidence in PLHIV o Improved access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) ⇒ reduction of TB incidence o remains higher in PLHIV on ART than in non-infected persons § TB prevention in PLHIV o Isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) recommended, not implemented in West Africa UNAIDS Data, WHO Global TB report 2016, Duda et al 2010 (Ie. DEA)
Background and Objective § Objective ↳ Assess tuberculosis incidence during the first year of antiretroviral therapy and identify associated factors in HIVinfected adults in West Africa
Methods: Study design and population § Ie. DEA West African collaboration cohort § 3 HIV outpatient centers in Côte d'Ivoire (Abidjan), Burkina Faso (Bobo Dioulasso), and Senegal (Dakar) § Inclusion criteria ↳ HIV-infected adults (≥ 16 years) ↳ initiating ART between 2010 and 2014 ↳ Without ongoing TB at ART initiation ↳ ≥ 1 follow-up visit § Patient follow-up ↳ Usual site visit calendars ↳ No IPT
Methods: Study design and population § TB diagnosis ↳ Systematic symptom screening for active TB ↳ According to national recommendations ↳ Sputum microscopy and chest radiography ↳ Xpert perfom if smear negative (since 2013) § Endpoint: incident TB defined as first TB event notified > 1 week and ≤ 1 year on ART § Statistics: ↳ Crude incidence ↳ Adjusted incidence and associated factors identified by multivariate Poisson regression models
Results 4, 154 started ART since 2010 in the 3 sites 750 without follow-up visit after ART initiation 3, 404 on ART with ≥ 1 follow -up visit 3, 213 included in our analysis 170 incident TB cases 191 patients with ongoing TB at initiation of ART.

Results - TB incidence and associated factors
Discussion § Overall TB incidence rate is 20 times higher than the incidence of TB in the general population of the 3 countries. § Associated factors: sex, CD 4, Hb level, past history of TB strongly associated with the incidence of TB on ART: similar result found by Seyler et al. In 2005 in Abidjan. § Adjusted incidence 4 times higher in patients from CI in line with incidence rates in the general population: ↳ BF: 54 [48 – 59] cases / 100, 000 PY ↳ CI: 165 [150 – 179] cases / 100, 000 PY
Conclusion § Tuberculosis incidence remains high during the first year on ART in the West African context in the absence of IPT § Several studies demonstrate the efficacity of combining ART and IPT in reducing of tuberculosis incidence and mortality in PLHIV § Implementation of IPT is necessary in PLHIV in West African settings despite lower incidence rates in the general population compared to Eastern or Temprano Anrs Study Group, 2015 Southern Africa
