Suchitra, Anita Shet et al.Problem statement: Despite massive national efforts to scale up Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) access in India since 2004, the AIDS death rate was 17.2 per 100,000 persons during 2003-2005. In the era of HAART in resource poor settings, it is imperative to understand and address the causes of AIDS related mortality. This collaborative study aimed at defining the predictors of mortality … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,661 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEfficacy 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
