Disclosure of HIV seropositivity

Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1999
Deciding whether or not to disclose one's HIV-positive status to another person is an important decision: the way each person experiences and copes with the illness is reflected in this choice. We conducted a study of 174 patients (29.3% of women) to examine how the decision to disclose or conceal was made, as well as its subjective and social ...

A model of HIV population to seropositivity

Korean Journal of Computational & Applied Mathematics, 1998
Summary: HIV population is modelled as a point process with a time-dependent birth rate. A method of phases is introduced to analyse special types of time-dependencies. The conditional life time of HIV population is assumed to be hypothetical in phases, the life span of the process being distributed independently and exponentially.

Psychosocial Consequences of HIV Seropositivity [PDF]

open access: possible, 1988
Most literature on acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) has focused on persons with clinical-criterion, or frank, AIDS. Given the lethality of an AIDS diagnosis, the recency of the disease, and the exponential increase in AIDS cases, it is understandable that clinical-criterion AIDS has dominated discussion and research. Relatively less attention

Serum Malondialdehyde in HIV Seropositive Children

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1998
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is associated with oxidative stress as it has been demonstrated in adult seropositive individuals. We show in this study that serum malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration of HIV infected children was significantly higher than in control children. Moreover, a statistically significant decreased serum antioxidant
