Evaluation of a two-test strategy for HIV screening in a low-prevalence setting and the indications for optimizing clinical management
© 2023 The Authors..
Objectives: To evaluate a two-test strategy for HIV screening in the low-prevalence population and to assess the feasibility of utilizing the optimal signal-to-cutoff (S/CO) threshold on the chemiluminescence immunoassay(CMIA) and an additional rapid test on the gold immune-chromatography assay (GICA) for screening positive patients and optimization of clinical management.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of samples analyzed by the fourth-generation Architect HIV Ag/Ab combo assay (CMIA) in a large medical center between June 2017 and August 2020. Reactive samples underwent a second screening test using the rapid test GICA, followed by Western blot (WB) as the confirmatory test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to determine the optimal S/CO. We calculated sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value based on our population. The performance of the single-test strategy (CMIA) was compared with that of the two-test strategy (CMIA and GICA). Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors of clinical characteristics leading to false positive results.
Results: A total of 220558 samples were screened by CMIA, and 429 patients met the inclusion criteria. Of these, CMIA produced 199 false-positive results with a median S/CO of 1.93(IQR1.45-3.68) and 230 positive results with a median S/CO of 455.1 (IQR169.3-709.7). The optimal S/CO of the single-test strategy was 8.82, which achieved a sensitivity of 100% and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 90.9%. The two-test strategy (CMIA and GICA) provided a sensitivity of 100% and a PPV of 98.7%, which best correlated with the confirmatory test WB. The combination of S/CO 8.82 on the CMIA assay and additional test results of GICA can be defined as four types used to interpret HIV serostatus. The false positive rate (FPR) was high in the female, the age≤18 group, the pre-operative patients, and the patients from the clinical departments of Pediatrics, Gynecology and Obstetrics, and Oncology, etc.
Conclusions: The false positive rate is high in the low-prevalence setting by using CMIA. The two-test strategy (CMIA and GICA) is recommended for HIV screening in hospitals. Hopefully, the clinicians will be able to interpret HIV serostatus and facilitate clinical decision-making while waiting for the confirmatory results.
