Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) attacks the immune system and can cause acquired syndrome. Thankfully, antiretroviral therapy is highly effective, people infected with HIV live long lives proper adherence to therapy. One of important noninfectious complications development pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This review will cover epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical characteristics HIV-a...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is most notable for its role in directly infecting and killing CD4 T cells the immune system, which can lead to acquisition of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Currently, there are no cures HIV-1, leaving 37 million people with HIV-1 infections definitive treatment. Researchers working towards developing long-term treatments using CRISPR-Cas...

The yield in cultures of bone marrow aspirations or biopsies was determined in 50 patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Most patients were febrile and had no identifiable source of infection. Concurrent stool, urine, and blood samples were also cultured. The bone marrow aspiration and biopsy procedures produced no complications and enabled a microbiological diagnosis to be made in 4...

A case of inflammatory pseudotumour of the lung in a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome due to infection by Corynebacterium equi is described. Patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) may develop a wide range of opportunist infections as a consequence of altered host defences. The course of AIDS is also complicated by malignant diseases, including aggressive ...

A 29-yr-old homosexual man with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome presented with watery diarrhea and fever. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy was performed to obtain duodenal aspirates and biopsies. A 4-cm submucosal mass in the gastric antrum was identified. Subsequent abdominal CT scan confirmed the presence of this antral mass. An attempt at CT guided needle biopsy was nondiagnostic. Because...

Titers in a direct agglutination test using Formalin-fixed toxoplasma tachyzoites were significantly higher in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE) than in those without TE. In contrast, when fresh (not fixed) tachyzoites were used, the titers did not differ from those in patients without TE. The direct agglutination test using Formalin-fixed tachy...

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease of the human immune system caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This condition progressively reduces the effectiveness of the immune system and leaves individuals susceptible to opportunistic infections and tumors. HIV is transmitted through direct contact of a mucous membrane or the blood...

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a significant public health problem caused by infection with the human virus (HIV). The most common cause of death in AIDS patients opportunistic various microorganisms. Intestinal protozoa, such as Enterocytozoon bieneusi, are prevalent yet difficult to treat. This review will provide an overview HIV/AIDS mixed bieneusi discussing introduction, epid...

Six men with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and cytomegalovirus (CMV) retinitis, treated with combined ganciclovir induction therapy and hyperimmune globulin (CMV-IGIV) for 10 days followed by CMV-IGIV alone, had a median time to retinitis progression shorter (7 days) than had eight historical controls given ganciclovir maintenance therapy (54 days; P = 0.06) and similar to that in e...
