Abstract
HIV/AIDS continue increasing in Japan and we considered the correspondence to the HIV examinees. The subjects were five HIV examinees whom we were able to know in our health care center from 2005 to 2010. We evaluated their background and abnormal items. In addition, we evaluated HIV screening that we examined as an option. The cases were all men (two 30s, three 40s), and they were 1) already under treatment, 2) acute HIV infection, and 3) AIDS. Two cases under treatment did not talk about their HIV at the time of their first contact. One case of acute HIV infection and two cases of AIDS were discovered because the abnormality of the gastric cancer screening of direct fluororadiography or the chest X-ray check existed. The ratio of examinees who examined optional HIV screening was only 0.35% of the whole. The examinee with positive HIV screening was only one who was acute HIV infection, and he was recommended to examine HIV screening by the doctor. We should understand the behavior of the HIV examinees and make an effort to discover HIV/AIDS early.
