Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 subtypes differ in disease progression.
At least 10 different genetic human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) subtypes (A-J) are responsible for the AIDS pandemic. Much of the understanding of HIV-1 disease progression derives from studies in the developed world where HIV infection is almost exclusively subtype B. This has led many to question whether the properties and consequences of HIV-1 infection can be generalized across su...
متن کاملBiomarkers Predicting Progression of Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Related Disease
UNLABELLED Biomarkers in predicting the progression of HIV infected individuals to a state of HIV disease (AIDS) are studied over more than a decade. Use of surrogate markers in the past for tracking clinical progression of the disease was limited, as little knowledge existed about the disease. The aim of this review was to address various changes in biomarker related studies taking place over ...
متن کاملEffect of splenectomy on slowing human immunodeficiency virus disease progression.
BACKGROUND Lymphoreticular tissue is the most important site for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication in HIV-infected individuals. OBJECTIVE To compare the long-term effect of splenectomy on survival and time to development of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome in subjects who had undergone splenectomy with subjects who had not undergone splenectomy. DESIGN A cohort study with a f...
متن کاملCytomegalovirus Active Infection in Persons Infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus
Background and Objective: Cytomegalovirus (CMV), one of the most common opportunistic pathogens in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), can cause the diseases such as encephalitis, pneumonia, and chorioretinitis. This study aimed at molecular studying of CMV infection in individuals infected with the human immunodeficiency virus. Material and Methods: In this study, 50 ven...
متن کاملHepatitis C virus load is associated with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 disease progression in hemophiliacs.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) coinfection is common in hemophiliacs and injection drug users. To assess the interaction between HCV load and HIV-1 disease progression, we examined 207 HIV-1/HCV-coinfected patients. Patients were followed prospectively for approximately 7 years, and annual measurements of CD4(+) cell counts and HCV and HIV-1 loads were o...
