Initiation of HIV Therapy
In this paper, we numerically show that the dynamics of the HIV system is sensitive to both the initial condition and the system parameters. These phenomena imply that the system is chaotic and exhibits a bifurcation behavior. To control the system, we propose to initiate an HIV therapy based on both the concentration of the HIV-1 viral load and the ratio of the CD4 lymphocyte population to the...
متن کاملCriticality of Timing for Anti-HIV Therapy Initiation
The time of initiation of antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1 infected patients has a determinant effect on the viral dynamics. The question is, how far can the therapy be delayed? Is sooner always better? We resort to clinical data and to microsimulations to forecast the dynamics of the viral load at therapy interruption after prolonged antiretroviral treatment. A computational model previously ev...
متن کاملSex Differences in Antiretroviral Therapy Initiation in Pediatric HIV Infection
The incidence and severity of infections in childhood is typically greater in males. The basis for these observed sex differences is not well understood, and potentially may facilitate novel approaches to reducing disease from a range of conditions. We here investigated sex differences in HIV-infected children in relation to antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation and post-treatment outcome. In...
متن کاملsleep quality and its correlates in hiv positive patients who are candidates for initiation of antiretroviral therapy.
objective: based on pittsburg sleep quality index, it has been reported that most human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) positive patients suffer from various degrees of sleep problems. sleep disorders can affect quality of life, physical and social functioning and can also cause chronic fatigue. some psychological and physiological factors are related to sleep quality. the purpose of the present s...
متن کاملInitiation of HIV Reverse Transcription
Reverse transcription of retroviral genomes into double stranded DNA is a key event for viral replication. The very first stage of HIV reverse transcription, the initiation step, involves viral and cellular partners that are selectively packaged into the viral particle, leading to an RNA/protein complex with very specific structural and functional features, some of which being, in the case of H...
