the aim of this study was to examine posttraumatic stress disorder (ptsd) symptoms, autobiographical remembering and executive control in individuals with hiv and in those of carers with hiv. for different groups of subjects including (1) people with hiv (n = 30), healthy controls 1 (n = 27), carers of those with hiv (n=26), and healthy controls 2 (n= 26) participated in the study. all subjects...

Introduction: Despite considerable efforts to control AIDS pandemic, it is still one of the significant infectious concerns worldwide. The advance in medical research has led to the development of highly active antiretroviral therapy with a considerable effect to suppress the disease. However, an effective vaccine capable of eradication the HIV pandemic is not available yet. Failure to develop ...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we introduce fractional-order into a model of HIV-1 infection of CD4^+ T--cells‎. ‎We study the effect of ‎the changing the average number of viral particles $N$ with different sets of initial conditions on the dynamics of‎ ‎the presented model‎. ‎ ‎The nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) scheme is implemented‎ ‎to study the dynamic behaviors in the fractional--order HIV-1‎ ‎...

background: numerous evidences indicate that in some hiv-1 positive patients, the humoral and cellular immune responses are induced against hiv-1 proteins and this is inversely related to the progress of infection. objective: the aim of this study was the evaluation of the adenovectors containing hiv genes in induction of immune responses in mice. methods: the hiv-1 genes including gag p24, rev...

The stability of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) DNA in whole blood collected on filter paper (FTA Card) was evaluated. After >4 years of storage at room temperature in the dark our qualitative assay detected virus at a rate similar to that of our initial test (58 of 60, 97%; P = 0.16), suggesting long-term HIV-1 DNA stability.
