HIV-1 viral RNA is present in large copy numbers HIV-1 viral RNA is present in large copy numbers during acute infection.during acute infection.
With multistage pooling, NAATs can efficiently With multistage pooling, NAATs can efficiently diagnose acute infection with good positive predictive diagnose acute infection with good positive predictive value in low prevalence populations. value in low prevalence populations.

ConclusionsConclusions
In total, 3.2% of infections identified by the STAT In total, 3.2% of infections identified by the STAT Program for Antibody-plus-RNA HIV testing Program for Antibody-plus-RNA HIV testing were AHI, which would have been missed using were AHI, which would have been missed using standard antibody based testing procedures.standard antibody based testing procedures.
The program’s success at identifying new HIV The program’s success at identifying new HIV infections has led to significant policy changes in infections has led to significant policy changes in NC, including universal reflex RNA testing for NC, including universal reflex RNA testing for EIA-negative specimens and mandatory re-EIA-negative specimens and mandatory re-testing of pregnant women in the 3testing of pregnant women in the 3rdrd trimester. trimester.
ConclusionsConclusions
The yield of AHI cases varied by site type and The yield of AHI cases varied by site type and type of antibody tests performed. Improved type of antibody tests performed. Improved sensitivity of current EIAs has resulted in a sensitivity of current EIAs has resulted in a decreased number of cases presenting as EIA (-) decreased number of cases presenting as EIA (-) and HIV-1 RNA (+). and HIV-1 RNA (+).

NC testing population may be due to increased NC testing population may be due to increased testing among low risk populations following the testing among low risk populations following the adoption of the CDC opt-out testing in 2007.adoption of the CDC opt-out testing in 2007.
ConclusionsConclusions Testing for AHI is especially important in high risk Testing for AHI is especially important in high risk
populations such as young MSM of color for whom these populations such as young MSM of color for whom these infections would have been missed. The recent increase infections would have been missed. The recent increase in AHI detection may be due to increased testing from in AHI detection may be due to increased testing from targeted outreach programs, to increased AHI/HIV targeted outreach programs, to increased AHI/HIV education, or to increased high risk behaviors such as education, or to increased high risk behaviors such as internet partner meeting.internet partner meeting.
Although nearly 2/3 of people tested for HIV were Although nearly 2/3 of people tested for HIV were women, a smaller percentage of women are detected women, a smaller percentage of women are detected during AHI than men. Plausible explanations include during AHI than men. Plausible explanations include lower perceived risk among clients and providers, and lower perceived risk among clients and providers, and greater barriers to care and prevention services among greater barriers to care and prevention services among high-risk women.high-risk women.
