The study aimed to <\/strong>determine the seroprevalence and molecular confirmation of HTLV-1<\/strong> among patients requiring frequent blood transfusions in Sana’a. Furthermore, the study investigated associated risk factors and evaluated the co-prevalence of other transfusion-transmitted infections (TTIs), including Hepatitis B (HBV)<\/strong>, Hepatitis C (HCV)<\/strong>, and HIV<\/strong>.<\/h3>\n
