Lack of Association between Interleukin-10 Gene Promoter Polymorphisms with HIV Susceptibility and Progression to AIDS
Background & Objective: Interleukin (IL)-10 is an important anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory cytokine. Some authors believe that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the promoter region of the IL-10 gene have been associated with susceptibility to HIV infection and progression to AIDS, but its role is not clearly defined yet. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the a...
متن کاملComparative study of predictive ability of AIDS incidence in HIV positive people using Markov model according to two criteria, WHO and CDC in CD4 cell categorization
Background: The Multi state Markov models have extensively application with categorization of laboratory marker of CD4 cells for evaluation of HIV disease progression. These models with different states result in different effects of covariates and prediction of HIV disease trend. The main purpose of this study was comparison of four and five states models with the three- state in order to sele...
متن کاملSoluble biomarkers of HIV transmission, disease progression and comorbidities.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The purpose of this study is to survey and synthesize recent progress in soluble biomarkers relevant to HIV-1 disease stages, progression and comorbidities. RECENT FINDINGS Soluble biomarkers in plasma and other body fluids provide insight into many aspects of HIV-1 disease. Chemokines and defensins in breast milk and cervicovaginal secretions have been associated with HIV-1...
متن کاملNo Role of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2) Infection on HIV Progression in Naïve HIV Patients
Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients and may accelerate HIV progression by rising HIV viral load and decreasing CD4 count. However, the available data regarding the influence of HSV-2 seropositivity on HIV progression in HIV individuals are inconclusive. Therefore, we aimed to determine HSV-2 seroprevalence in na&iu...
متن کاملAssociation of CD24V/V Genotype with Susceptibility and Progression of Multiple Sclerosis in Iranian Population
A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in CD24 has been associated with multiple sclerosis (MS) in a population based study. This SNP results in the replacement of alanine (CD24A) by valine (CD24V) at amino acid 57 in the resulting polypeptide chain. In the current study, the genotyping of this SNP and its contribution to MS in 217 patients and 200 healthy individuals of an Iranian population w...
متن کاملHIV prevention perception among barbers according to health belief model case study from Marand
Some groups such as barbers have a more effective role in HIV/AIDS transmission. Probability of transmission of the (HIV) through barber’s equipment is drastically high. Using infected razors and doing tattoos are the most important way of spreading the disease .The aim of this study was to determine the perceptions of male barbers of Marand city(Iran) about HIV/AIDS based on health belief mode...
