Toxoplasma gondii IgG Seroprevalence in Patients with HIV/AIDS.

CONCLUSION: In our study, high seronegativity was remarkable in MSM patients, particularly those who were highly educated, thus emphasizing the importance of prevention of primary infection in seronegative patients; necessity of prophylaxis in appropriate patients due to encephalitis, which has a high mortality rate and almost always develops after a latent infection; and necessity of screening for toxoplasmosis seropositivity at the time of diagnosis.
