Infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) is common among HIV-positive patients, up to 50% of them being coinfected in Russia. While highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) suppresses HIV replication and restores the immune system HIV-infected subjects, HCV coinfection interferes CD4 + T cell regeneration increases risk patients’ morbidity mortality. During HAART, HIVinfection progression res...

background: the human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) is one of the most life- threatening human infections. the advent of highly active antiretroviral therapy (haart) has dramatically changed the course of hiv infection and patients' quality of life. in addition to the benefits, haart can have numerous side effects and toxicities. therefore, we aimed to assess the impact of short-term vitamins tr...

Highly Active Antiretroviral therapy (HAART) depends on optimal adherence to be effective. Pharmacotherapeutic follow-up can used as a strategy for treatment fidelity. To provide pharmaceutical care HAART patients, assess adherence, identify and resolve drug related problems (DRP). This is prospective, interventional study aimed at people HAART. Data was collected using the pharmacotherapeutic ...

polyomaviruses may cause human disease, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. jcv, one of the members of polyomaviridae family, is the causative agent of the neurological disease progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (pml), which occurs mostly in immunocompromised patients. progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (pml) is a progressive demyelinating disorder of the central nervous sy...

Background: Several studies suggest that patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) under highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) have a higher cardiovascular risk than general population. Arterial stiffness is an independent predictor of events and can be measured through carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV). The objectives this study were to characterize sample HI...

current mainstay of treatment for human immunodeficiency virus (hiv)-infected patients is highly active antiretroviral therapy (haart) but little is known about the long-term clinical outcome for hiv-infected patients who have received haart. determining factors associated with longterm survival in the course of treatment may allow modification to be made for patients who are at a greater risk ...

Objective(s): Broad range of metabolic changes associated with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has been reported over decades including reproductive perturbations. The current study aimed at investigating the role of Hypoxis hemerocallidea (Hyp) in the seminal and morphometric alterations in the testes of streptozotocin-nicotinamide-induced diabetic rats under HAART.Materials and M...

Background and Objective: Dyslipidemia has become a common problem in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, especially in patients on combination antiretroviral therapy. In this study we aimed to determine the prevalence of dyslipidemia and metabolic abnormalities in 2 groups of HIV infected patients receiving highly activ...

background : plasmodium falciparum infection is endemic in most tropical countries and will definitely infect human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) positive patients living in this region at one time or the other during the course of their infection. this study was conducted to determine the prevalence of malaria infection in hiv-infected patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy in benin c...
