Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Lipid-Lowering Efficacy of Switching Within Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors in HIV-Infected PatientsA.M. Bain, K.D. Payne, A.P. Rahman et al.The objective of present research is to evaluate the lipid lowering efficacy and safety of switching within non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) in HIV-infected patients. This is a multicenter, retrospective study utilizing a comprehensive electronic patient registry to identify all adult HIV-infected patients seen from October 1, 1998 through October 1, 2006, who substituted efavirenz for nevirapine (EFV→NVP) or vice-versa … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTolemerase Reverse Transcriptase Gene Expression as a Tumor Marker for Hepatocellular CarcinomaM. Magdi Atta, Naglaa Al-Toukhy, Omnia Al-Said et al.Problem statement: Hepatocellular carcinoma will emerge as a major form of malignancy in the coming decades. The continuing high incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma, suggests that this disease will continue to represent a global health problem far into the future. Different genes encode for the various components of the human telomerase complex. These components include the human Telomerase RNA Component (hTERC) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 3 Aug 2011 · 7,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEfficacy of Pravastatin in Non-Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitor (NNRTI) and Protease Inhibitor (PI)-based HAART in HIV-Infected PatientsSusan A. Eaton, Anita P. Rahman, Sean T. Nguyen et al.Pravastatin has generally been considered a safe and effective option for HIV-infected patients on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). However, pravastatin concentrations are known to significantly decrease with concomitant efavirenz (EFV) use. Currently there are no studies determining if these reductions in pravastatin possibly translate into an attenuation of its lipid lowering efficacy when used in HIV-infected patients on non-nucleoside … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMetabolic Abnormalities Associated with the Use of Protease Inhibitors and Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase InhibitorsMadhu N. Rao, Grace A. Lee, Carl GrunfeldThe use of protease inhibitors and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors for the treatment of HIV infection and AIDS has been associated with multiple abnormalities in glucose and lipid metabolism. Specifically, these abnormalities include insulin resistance, increased triglycerides and increased LDL cholesterol levels. The metabolic disturbances are due to a combination of factors, including the direct effect of medications, restoration to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,936 accessesView PDFCite

Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractCOVID-19 Diagnosis in Asymptomatic: RT-qPCR or any other Cost-Effective Method?Mayank Agarwal, Yogesh Arvind Bahurupi, Prasan Kumar PandaOn January 30th, 2020, the World Health Organization announced the COVID-19 outbreak as a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. In the view of this pandemic, early diagnosis is the mainstay for halting the disease progression. Quantitative real-time Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR) has been established as the cornerstone for the diagnosis of COVID-19. However, the significance of RT-qPCR positivity … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 2 Jun 2021 · 6,557 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMomordica balsamina Fruit Extracts Enhances Selected Aspects of the Insulin Synthesis/Secretion PathwayAnanias Hodi Kgopa, Leshweni Jerry Shai, Motetelo Alfred MogalePrevious studies have suggested that crude plant extracts of the anti-diabetic medicinal plant, Momordica balsamina (MB) may exert their anti-diabetic effect through either enhancement of insulin sensitivity or inhibition of intestinal glucose absorption. However, the effects of these MB extracts on insulin synthesis and secretion are not well documented in the literature. Therefore, a main purpose of the current research … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 17 Dec 2020 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
