High proviral load of human T cell lymphotropic virus type-1 facilitates coronary artery diseases
Objective(s): Coronary artery disease (CAD) is known as a life threatening disease, worldwide. In this study the role of HTLV-1 infection was evaluated on cardiac involvement in an endemic region of northeastern Iran.Materials and Methods: Serologic and molecular tests for HTLV-1 infection were carried out in subjects who had coronary an...
متن کاملEpstein-Barr virus load in children infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 in Uganda.
BACKGROUND Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) is involved in a wide range of malignancies, particularly in immunocompromised subjects. In Africa, EBV primary infection occurs during early childhood, but little is known about the EBV load in Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected children. METHODS Blood samples from 213 HIV-1-infected children, 140 of whom were receiving antiretroviral the...
متن کاملHuman immunodeficiency virus load in breast milk, mastitis, and mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1.
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 load in breast milk and mastitis were examined as risk factors for vertical transmission of HIV-1. Six weeks after delivery, HIV-1 load and sodium (an indicator of mastitis) were measured in breast milk from 334 HIV-1-infected women in Malawi. Median breast milk HIV-1 load was 700 copies/mL among women with HIV-1-infected infants versus undetectable (<2...
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...
متن کاملComparative prediction of perinatal human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transmission, using multiple virus load markers.
Maternal plasma human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 RNA load has a role in perinatal transmission, but significant overlap in the range of plasma virus loads among transmitters and nontransmitters is often observed, which makes it difficult to predict transmission outcome. We measured several virus markers in a drug-naive population of HIV-1-infected mothers in Botswana. Maternal plasma H...
