Experimental Results on Chloroquine and AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections
JAIDS Journal of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndromes, 2001 Apart from its antiretroviral effects, chloroquine (CQ) has other properties that may be of interest in setting of HIV infection. First, it is an anti-inflammatory drug and, second, it may help to prevent several AIDS-related opportunistic infections.

AIDS related opportunistic infections, going but not gone
Archives of Pharmacal Research, 2002 It is now more than two decades since the AIDS epidemic began with a cluster of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) in a community of homosexual men. Since then, many other infections have been characterized as opportunistic infections secondary to HIV infection. These include, but are not limited to, infections with Toxoplasma gondii, Cytomegalovirus

Gene Therapy for HIV and AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections
, 2001 Gene therapy was initially conceptualised as gene replacement treatment for genetic diseases, particularly diseases that are inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion and carry a significant morbidity, such as Cystic Fibrosis. However, as the field has expanded, it has taken advantage of the increasing knowledge base that there are genetic components

When to Start ART in the Setting of Acute AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections: The Time Is Now!
Current HIV/AIDS Reports, 2012 Despite the substantial benefits of combination antiretroviral therapy (ART), a significant proportion of HIV-infected individuals still present with advanced disease and active AIDS-related opportunistic infections (OIs). The weight of evidence from recent studies supports the early initiation of ART (ie, within 2 weeks of initiating treatment for the

Kala-Azar as an AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infection
AIDS Patient Care and STDs, 1999 Visceral leishmaniasis (kala-azar) is a worldwide disseminated protozoal infection primarily transmitted by sand flies. Because host defense against this intracellular infection is T-cell-dependent, kala-azar has predictably joined the list of AIDS-related opportunistic infections in endemic areas.

Microsporidiosis as an AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infection
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1995 The clinical manifestations of AIDS-related microsporidiosis range from mild or asymptomatic infections to debilitating illness involving the gastrointestinal, respiratory, or urogenital tracts or the eyes. Intestinobiliary infections with Enterocytozoon bieneusi are the most common microsporidial diseases, but disseminated infections with ...

Patients at Risk for AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections
New England Journal of Medicine, 1985 We studied 81 men (79 homosexuals and 2 drug abusers) with persistent lymphadenopathy to determine whether those at risk for AIDS-related opportunistic infections could be identified prospectively. (Sixty-nine of 76 [91 per cent] had antibodies to human T-cell lymphotropic virus Type III [HTLV-III], and 76 of 79 [96 per cent] had abnormal T4/T8 cell ...

Tissue Diagnosis of Selected AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections
The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1987 Opportunistic infections are the most common initial manifestations of AIDS and, in many instances, are first encountered in surgical specimens. Pneumocystis carinii pneumonitis is by far the most frequent infection seen in biopsy specimens of AIDS patients. Most pathologists are familiar with its histopathologic presentations from previous experience.
