Clinical, demographic and laboratory parameters at HAART initiation associated with decreased post-HAART survival in a U.S. military prospective HIV cohort

AIDS Research and Therapy, 2012
Background Although highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has improved HIV survival, some patients receiving therapy are still dying. This analysis was conducted to identify factors associated with increased risk of post-HAART mortality.

Spontaneous apoptosis and highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 2000
Increased programmed cell death (PCD) or apoptosis has been detected in the T cells of HIV-infected subjects; it is held partially responsible for the continuous loss of CD4+ T cells during the natural course of HIV infection. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) decreases the viral load and leads to an increase of CD4+ count in vivo.
