| A new study by Chinese researchers suggested that lacrimal glands and/or other tear-associated tissues are a potential transmitter for the HIV virus, the Beijing Morning Post reported. |
據(jù)《北京晨報》報道，我國研究人員所作的一項新研究顯示，淚腺和/或與眼淚相關(guān)的組織有可能是艾滋病病毒的傳播體。 |
| The study, led by Dr. Li Taisheng from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, was the world's first quantitative analysis of HIV in lacrimal fluids. |
該研究由北京協(xié)和醫(yī)院的李太生醫(yī)生領(lǐng)銜，是世界上首個對淚腺進行的艾滋病病毒定量分析。 |
| The study followed 21 HIV-1 infected subjects in six years and tested 1 milliliter of tears collected from each of them. |
該研究在六年里追蹤了21名感染艾滋病病毒1型的患者，從每人身上收集了1毫升眼淚，并對眼淚做了化驗。 |
| The results showed high concentrations of HIV in the tears of the patients who showed HIV-negative in their blood tests after a long period of treatment with HIV drug cocktails. |
結(jié)果顯示，這些患者眼淚中艾滋病病毒濃度很高，他們都經(jīng)過了長時間的艾滋病雞尾酒治療，經(jīng)驗血艾滋病病毒呈陰性。 |
| The results indicated that HIV is very likely to be able to be spread through tears. Experts suggested that doctors should be careful in performing eye examinations and operations on HIV-positive patients. |
該結(jié)果暗示，艾滋病病毒很可能可通過眼淚傳播。專家建議，醫(yī)生對艾滋病病毒陽性患者進行眼部檢查或手術(shù)時須謹慎。 |

The study was recently published in the World Journal of AIDS.
