Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleComparing the Diagnostics Accuracy of CD4+ T-Lymphocyte Count and Percent as a Surrogate Markers of Pediatric HIV DiseaseMusie Ghebremichael, Haben Michael, Jack Tubbs, Elijah PaintsilThe percentage CD4+ T-lymphocytes is used to monitor pediatric HIV disease. However, in resource-limited settings, enumerating the percentage of CD4+ T-lymphocytes is hampered by the lack of laboratory infrastructure and trained technicians. In this paper, we investigated the performances of the percentage and absolute CD4+ T-lymphocytes as markers of pediatric HIV disease progression using data from HIV-infected children enrolled through … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2019 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleNeuropsychological Complications of HIV Disease and Substances of AbuseLisa R. Norman, Anil KumarIn the last decade, it has become increasingly apparent that neuropsychological deficits and impairments are associated with HIV infection. Given that antiretroviral therapies have extended the life expectancy of HIV-infected persons, it becomes critical to focus on the physical and mental health of these patients. Understanding the neuropsychology of HIV disease can provide insight into improving mental health, functional capacity … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCoronary Heart Disease (CHD) Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome in HIV-Positive Drug Users in MiamiMarianna K Baum, Carlin Rafie, Shenghan Lai et al.The frequency of coronary heart disease (CHD) is increasing among HIV seropositive persons. This phenomenon may be related to HIV disease itself, the use of antiretroviral medications and increased length of survival, or the synergism of these factors. In this study we have calculated the 10-year CHD risk estimate and the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in a cohort of 118 … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRetinoids and Opioids: Factors in the Development of HIV-Related Neurological DiseaseWalter Royal, III, Joseph L. BryantNeurological disease occurs frequently in HIV-infected individuals and may occur at even higher rates among infected drug users. Among the potential mechanisms that promote such impairment, retinoid deficiency may have selective effects that could both lead to alterations in immune function and enhanced replication of HIV. Studies are currently underway to examine the possible selective effects of retinoid receptor activation … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCo-expression of Apoptosis-Related Molecules on Activated CD8+ CD38+ T-cells is Associated with HIV-1 Disease ProgressionJosé W. Rodríguez, Luis A. Rodríguez, Griselle Font et al.CD8+ T cells play a major role in controlling HIV-1 infection through the release of soluble lytic and non-lytic antiviral factors. Their decrease or defective function contributes to the HIV-1 disease progression. HIV-1 disease progression has been associated with a remarkable increase of CD38 expression on CD8+ T-cells. It has been also documented that a significant distribution of HIV-specific CD8+T-cells … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMULTI-STATE MODELS OF HIV/AIDS BY HOMOGENEOUS SEMI-MARKOV PROCESSZelalem Getahun DessieMulti-state stochastic models are useful tools for studying complex dynamics such as chronic diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine factors associated with the progression between different stages of the disease and to model the progression of HIV/AIDS disease of an individual patient under ART follow-up using semi-Markov processes. A sample of 1456 patients has been taken from … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2014 · 8,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicrobial Translocation and B Cell Dysfunction in Human Immunodeficiency Virus DiseaseWei JiangThe gut mucosal barrier disrupted in HIV disease, resulting in increased systemic exposure to microbial products such as Lipo Polys Accharide (LPS). The association of enhanced microbial translocation and B cell dysfunction in HIV disease is not fully understood. High dose and short term exposure of microbial Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) agonists were used as vaccine adjuvants, however, low dose and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2012 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Stability and Bifurcation of Solutions of Nonlinear System of Differential Equations for AIDS DiseaseS. A.A. El-MaroufProblem statement: This study aims to discuss the stability and bifurcation of a system of ordinary differential equations expressing a general nonlinear model of HIV/AIDS which has great interests from scientists and researchers on mathematics, biology, medicine and education. The existance of equilibrium points and their local stability are studied for HIV/AIDS model with two forms of the incidence rates. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 24 Apr 2012 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVirtual Screening of CPP Conjugated Peptide as QcrB BCC Protein Inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis BacteriaMuhammad Ihsan Muttaqin, Manaman Huang, Usman Sumo Friend TambunanTuberculosis is a global leading cause of death, just below COVID-19 and ranked above HIV. This disease is caused by a pathogen called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which spreads easily through the air and is known to remain latent in most people's bodies, about a quarter of the world's population. The current problems with TB also include two main concerns: The official … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 14 Mar 2024 · 5,518 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction and Profitability Intervention of Summer Hybrid Tomato: A Farm Level Review in BangladeshShubhankar Das, Mashrat JahanNow a days, tomato production in Bangladesh is increasing. But land area for tomato cultivation is not increased. Due to the adoption of the new High Yield Variety (HIV) and hybrid tomato total production is increased. Farmers are willing to produce off-season or summer tomatoes because of their high price. Production of tomatoes is profitable by considering cost and benefit. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 23 May 2022 · 6,751 accessesView PDFCite
