Journal ArticleDOI
Universal voluntary HIV testing with immediate antiretroviral therapy as a strategy for elimination of HIV transmission: a mathematical model
TL;DR: A theoretical strategy of universal voluntary HIV testing and immediate treatment with ART, combined with present prevention approaches, could have a major effect on severe generalised HIV/AIDS epidemics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charles F. Gilks,Siobhan Crowley,Rene Ekpini,Sandy Gove,Jos Perriens,Yves Souteyrand,Don Sutherland,Marco Vitoria,Teguest Guerma,Kevin M. De Cock +9 more
TL;DR: A public-health approach to antiretroviral therapy (ART) to enable scaling-up access to treatment for HIV-positive people in developing countries, recognising that the western model of specialist physician management and advanced laboratory monitoring is not feasible in resource-poor settings.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, consensus case definitions for paradoxical tuberculosis-associated IRIS, ART-associated tuberculosis, and unmasking tuberculosis associated IRIS were derived, which can be used by clinicians and researchers in a variety of settings to promote standardisation and comparability of data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neil French,Neil French,Jessica Nakiyingi,Lucy M. Carpenter,Lucy M. Carpenter,E. Lugada,Christine Watera,K Moi,M Moore,M Moore,D Antvelink,Daan W. Mulder,Edward N. Janoff,James A. G. Whitworth,Charles F. Gilks +14 more
TL;DR: 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccination is ineffective in HIV-1-infected Ugandan adults and probably has little, or no, public health value elsewhere in sub-Saharan Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cryptococcal infection in a cohort of HIV-1-infected Ugandan adults
Neil French,Katherine J. Gray,Christine Watera,Jessica Nakiyingi,E. Lugada,Michael Moore,David G. Lalloo,James A. G. Whitworth,Charles F. Gilks +8 more
TL;DR: Despite the recognition of Cryptococcus neoformans as a major cause of meningitis in HIV-infected adults in sub-Saharan Africa, little is known about the relative importance of this potentially preventable infection as a cause of mortality and suffering in HIV infected adults in this region.
