Abstract Background Vitamin E supplementation in many adult populations has been found to reduce the impact of oxidative stress from chronic diseases which include HIV infection. With paucity data among pediatric population, this study was conducted determine mean serum vitamin levels and its associations with immunologic status, nutritional status use highly active antiretroviral drugs (HAART)...

Objective: This study examines the effect of the addition of IMOD, a novel multi-herbal drug to the highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) regimen, on the immunological status of HIV-positive patients. Materials and Methods: A randomized two-parallel-group (HAART group versus HAART+IMOD group), pretest-posttest design was used.Sixty patients with indications for treatment with the HAART ...

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...

Cystoisospora belli is an intestinal Apicomplexan parasite associated with diarrheal illness and disseminated infections in humans, mainly immunocompromised individuals such as those living the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired syndrome (AIDS). An irregular administration of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) HIV patients may increase risk opportunistic like cystoisospori...

Background and Aims: This cross-sectional study examined the nutritional status, serum proteins, and some trace elements in human immunodeficiency viruses (HIV) drug-naive patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy. Material and Methods: Twenty-five drug-naive subjects, 25 subjects on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART), and 20 control subjects aged 21 to 65 years were convenie...

Background/aim: People with HIV are often reported to experience poor sleep quality. Factors that can cause quality in patients, including the use of ARV therapy. The pathophysiology patients is still unclear. Poor one complaints late stages infection, where it suspected itself affects biological center sleep. This study was aimed determine comparison pre-HAART and HAART more than 1 year. Metho...

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...

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 ...
