Modeling TB and HIV co-infections.
Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death among individuals infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The study of the joint dynamics of HIV and TB present formidable mathematical challenges due to the fact that the models of transmission are quite distinct. Furthermore, although there is overlap in the populations at risk of HIV and TB infections, the magnitude of the proport...
متن کاملLeishmania/HIV co-infections: epidemiology in Europe.
As the AIDS pandemic spreads to rural areas and human visceral leishmaniasis (VL) becomes more common in suburban areas, there is an ever greater degree of overlap between the geographical distributions of the two diseases and, in consequence, an increasing incidence of Leishmania/HIV co-infection. Cases of the co-infection have been reported from 35 countries around the world but most have bee...
متن کاملImmunology of viral co-infections with HIV.
Increasing clinical evidence is emerging that other persistent viral infections can act as important co-factors affecting the progression of human munodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). It appears that hepatitis C (HCV) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) have a deleterious effect on HIV progression, whereas hepatitis G (GBV-C) benefits HIV-1 progression. At the same time, the aggressive nature of HCV infection...
متن کاملDiagnosis of opportunistic infections: HIV co-infections - tuberculosis.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Tuberculosis (TB) incidence has declined ∼1.5% annually since 2000, but continued to affect 10.4 million individuals in 2015, with 1/3 remaining undiagnosed or underreported. The diagnosis of TB among those co-infected with HIV is challenging as TB remains the leading cause of death in such individuals. Accurate and rapid diagnosis of active TB will avert mortality in both adu...
متن کاملCo-infections; Their Role in HIV Acquisition and Disease Progression
HIV/AIDS disease manifestations play critical roles on the host's immune response to infections especially cell-mediated immunity which is central in combating many other infections, allowing opportunistic pathogens that otherwise rarely infect humans, to cause disease. There is paucity of information to satisfactorily explain the geographical pathophysiological overlaps of malnutrition, bacter...
