1. Cryptococcosis in Atlántico, Colombia: an approximation of the prevalence of this mycosis and the distribution of the etiological agent in the environment
ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION:Cryptococcosis is an invasive disease acquired by inhalation of infectious propagules from the environment. Currently, compulsory notification of the spread of this disease is not required in Colombia. However, reporting of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immune deficiency syndrome cases to the National Surveillance System ha

2. Avaliação da assistência ambulatorial a pessoas vivendo com HIV/aids em serviços públicos no estado de São Paulo: relações entre qualidade e organização do processo de trabalho / Evaluation of the health care to people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in the State of São Paulo, Brazil: relationship between organizational dimensions and quality of care
Twenty-seven AIDS outpatient services from São Paulo State public health system, Brazil had their quality of care evaluated. Interviews with the managers and work observation were applied in all services. The approach was focused on the integration of the process of care through the following evaluation parameters: prioritization of relevant work targets; u

3. Microsporidia and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
Microsporidia is a common term that has been used to refer to a group of eukaryotic, obligate intracellular protozoan parasites belonging to the phylum Microspora. They are important agricultural parasites, contaminating commercial insects; they are also important by infecting laboratory rodents, rabbits and primates. Ever since the early cases found by Maga

4. Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 expression in the central nervous system correlates directly with extent of disease.
To investigate human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) pathogenesis in infected individuals and examine the correlation of HIV-1 expression with extent of clinical and pathologic disease, we studied spinal cords from acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patients with a wide range of spinal cord pathology. By performing in situ hybridization with HIV-1-spec

5. Animal model for the therapy of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
The reverse transcriptase (RT) of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the major target for antiretroviral therapy of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). While some inhibitors exhibit activity against most retroviral RTs, others are specific for the HIV-1 enzyme. To develop an animal model for the therapy of the HIV-1 infection with

6. Epidemiology and pathogenesis of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus.
Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) occurs in Europe and the Mediterranean countries (classic KS) and Africa (endemic KS), immunosuppressed patients (iatrogenic or post-transplant KS) and those with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), especially among those who acquired human immunodeficiency virus sexually (AIDS-KS). KS-associated herpesvirus (KSHV or HHV-8) is u

7. Human immunodeficiency virus and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome: correlation but not causation.
AIDS is an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome defined by a severe depletion of T cells and over 20 conventional degenerative and neoplastic diseases. In the U.S. and Europe, AIDS correlates to 95% with risk factors, such as about 8 years of promiscuous male homosexuality, intravenous drug use, or hemophilia. Since AIDS also correlates with antibody to a retr
