Effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection upon acute salpingitis: a laparoscopic study.
To determine the effect of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection upon pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), a laparoscopic study of acute PID was conducted in Nairobi, Kenya. Subjects underwent diagnostic laparoscopy, HIV-1 serology, and testing for sexually transmitted diseases. Of the 133 women with laparoscopically verified salpingitis, 52 (39%) were HIV-1-seropositive. Tubo-ova...

متن کاملInfluence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection on acute hepatitis A virus infection.
To assess the possible influence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection on the clinical course of acute hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection, 15 HIV-1-infected homosexual men and 15 non-HIV-infected age-matched subjects were compared. HAV load was higher in HIV-1-infected than in non-HIV-infected patients (P<.001). Duration of viremia in HIV-1-infected patients (median, 53 days) ...
متن کاملResistance mechanism of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 protease to inhibitors: A molecular dynamic approach
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors comprise an important class of drugs used in HIV treatments. However, mutations of protease genes accelerated by low fidelity of reverse transcriptase yield drug resistant mutants of reduced affinities for the inhibitors. This problem is considered to be a serious barrier against HIV treatment for the foreseeable future. In this st...
