Mathematical modelling of internal HIV dynamics [PDF]

, 2009
We study a mathematical model for the viral dynamics of HIV in an infected individual in the presence of HAART. The paper starts with a literature review and then formulates the basic mathematical model.

Association between highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and hypertension in persons living with HIV/AIDS at the Bamenda regional hospital, Cameroon

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2019
INTRODUCTION: The introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in the treatment of HIV infection has provided different good results: like long-term viral suppression, the decrease of opportunistic infections, and repair of the immune ...

Determining the prevalence of Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Associated nephropathy (HIVAN) using proteinuria and ultrasound findings in a Nigerian paediatric HIV population

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2012
BACKGROUND: HIV associated nephropathy (HIVAN) is the most common form of chronic kidney disease resulting directly from HIV infection. The true prevalence of HIVAN in the paediatric population of West Africa is unknown, largely due to lack of ...

Metabolic syndrome in human immunodeficiency virus positive patients

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Aims and Objectives : To assess the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive patients. Prevalence of MetS was compared in patients who were not on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) to patients who ...

HIV dynamics and natural history studies: Joint modeling with doubly interval-censored event time and infrequent longitudinal data

, 2011
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection has become one of the most challenging clinical situations to manage in HIV-infected patients. Recently the effect of HCV coinfection on HIV dynamics following initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)

Microglial reactivity and nodule formation are associated with Synaptodendritic damage in the brains of people with HIV‐1

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Despite effective ART, neurocognitive impairment persists in people with HIV. Brains from PWH present exacerbated microgliosis and formation of microglial nodules that are actively engaged in neuronal phagocytosis, resulting in neuronal injury and dendritic loss.
