Resumo:
The prevalence of infection by viral agents such as HIV-1, HTLV1/2, VHB and CMV is not so much known in pregnant teenage population from the North region of Brazil. One of the objectives of this study was to describe the prevalence of infections HIV-1, HTLV1/2, VHB and CMV in pregnant adolescents, attended in a Reference Center in the State of Pará. To achieve the objectives, it was collected blood samples from 324 pregnant adolescents, who came from several cities of the State, from November of 2009 to February of 2010. The samples were submitted to an immuno-enzymatic test (ELISA), in order to detect antibodies Anti- HIV, Anti- HTL V1/2, Anti- VHB and Anti- CMV IgM/ IgG. The serological analysis revealed one serum positive sample for HIV-1, two positives samples for HTLV1/2, while the majority of samples showed antibodies Anti-CMV-IgG, although the occurrence of high infection was low (2.2%). The prevalence of infection for VHB in pregnant adolescents was 0.62%, however a great number (83.3%) of adolescents are susceptible to the infection by VHB, what means they probably were not immunized. The majority of adolescents (63.4%) continued their studies, even though they know about their pregnancy and 34.6% started prenatal later, so they only had a minimum number of four consultations of prenatal. The result reinforces the hypothesis that pregnant adolescents have prevalence for those viral type infections, what is similar to the national pregnant women rates. The prevalence of viral subtypes (HTLV-2 and HIV-1 subtype B) obtained by the molecular characterization of serum positive samples from pregnant adolescents agreed with the prevalence of subtypes from the North region.
