Acute bacterial meningitis is an infectious disease emergency. The incidence of bacterial meningitis is estimated to be 3.0 cases per 100,000 person-years, and its overall case fatality rate is 25% in adults. Common predisposing conditions for community-acquired meningitis include acute otitis media, altered immune states, alcoholism, pneumonia ...

Although coexistent HIV infection and pregnancy are still rare in most communities, as the prevalence of HIV and AIDS continues to rise, the practicing physician can expect to see this more frequently. The internist plays a crucial role in educating these patients as to the importance of "safe sex" practices and pregnancy prevention.

AIDS is the clinical manifestation of cellular immunodeficiency caused by HIV infection. A characteristic feature of HIV-infection is the lifelong coexistence of HIV and antibodies against it in the blood. The routine diagnosis of HIV-positivity is based mainly on HIV-antibody screening by ELISA and confirmation by Western blotting.

Clinical evidence, 2005
Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) usually leads to 8-10 years of asymptomatic infection before immune function deteriorates and AIDS develops. Without treatment, about 50% of infected people will die of AIDS over 10 years. With treatment, prognosis depends on age, CD4 cell count, and initial viral load.We conducted a systematic ...
