首例被治愈的艾滋病

　　美国研究人员3日宣布，一位来自密西西比州的女婴成为首例被“功能性治愈的感染艾滋病毒的婴儿。联合国艾滋病规划署4日表示，这一消息为在儿童中治疗艾滋病带来了巨大希望，期待医学界开展更多研究，确定这一突破性进展是否能够复制。

　　美国研究人员称，2010年7月，一名在密西西比州出生婴儿的母亲是艾滋病毒感染者，分娩时未接受抗逆转录病毒药物治疗或产前护理。由于婴儿感染艾滋病毒的风险很高，医生在其出生30小时后随即开始组合式抗逆转录病毒治疗，检测结果证实婴儿的确感染了病毒。

　　这名婴儿一周后出院，一直接受治疗到至18个月大。时隔半年，医生发现患儿的艾滋病毒检测结果变成了阴性。如果得到证实的话，这将是世界上首个有明确记载的感染艾滋病毒的儿童被“功能性治愈的病例。所谓的“功能性治愈是指艾滋病毒检测结果为阴性，即使不再吃药，机体免疫功能也呈

　　正常状态。

　　艾滋病规划署表示，这一消息为儿童治疗艾滋病带来了巨大的希望，也凸显出在早期诊断领域进行研究和创新的必要性。同时期待医学界就此开展更多的研究，确定这一突破性进展是否能够复制。

　　据世界卫生组织和联合国儿童基金会的统计，2010年，在感染艾滋病毒风险的婴儿中，只有28%在出生后6周内接受了病毒检测。2011年，全世界新增加了33万名感染艾滋病毒的儿童。在15岁以下的艾滋病毒感染者中，只有28%能够获得治疗。

　　全球唯一一个获得完全治愈的艾滋病患者是美国人蒂莫西·布朗。2007年，他因治疗白血病而接受骨髓移植，骨髓捐赠者天生携带抗艾滋病病毒的变异基因。术后5年来，布朗无需摄入治疗艾滋病的药物。

The so-called " functional cure " refers to the HIV test results were negative, even if no longer take medicine, immune function was also

　　The normal state.

　　UNAIDS said, brought great hope this message for HIV treatment for children, also highlights the necessity in early diagnosis of field research and innovation. At the same time, looking forward to the medical community to carry out more research, determine whether this breakthrough can copy.

　　According to statistics, who and UNICEF in 2010, at the risk of HIV infection in infants, only 28% to accept the virus at 6 weeks after birth. In 2011, the whole world has increased the 330000 HIV-infected children. At the age of 15 living with HIV, only 28% can get treatment.
