Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST 6gQyR0xr. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. The authors studied a population of 5634 students from various continents to determine possible correlations between risk factors and seroprevalence of HIV infection. In the African sample the seroprevalence rate was 3.5% ; the age range from 19 to 30 years was most affected ; prevalence differences between the sexes were slight (3.5% for the males vs 3% for the females) ; the evaluation of the medical history (STDs, malaria, TB and hospital stays) showed no statistically significant association with HIV-1 infection ; the central-eastern Africa significantly appeared the most affected.
