TL;DR: Levels of HIV-1 RNA at delivery and prenatal antiretroviral therapy were independently associated with transmission and the protective effect of therapy increased with the complexity and duration of the regimen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytomegalovirus infection and hiv-1 disease progression in infants born to hiv-1–infected women
Andrea Kovacs,Mark D. Schluchter,Kirk A. Easley,Gail J. Demmler,William T. Shearer,Philip La Russa,Jane Pitt,Ellen R. Cooper,Johanna Goldfarb,David S. Hodes,Meyer Kattan,Kenneth McIntosh +11 more
TL;DR: This study assessed 440 infants whose CMV status was known, who were born to HIV-1–infected women, and who were followed prospectively for at least 18 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
After AIDS Clinical Trial 076: The Changing Pattern of Zidovudine Use during Pregnancy, and the Subsequent Reduction in the Vertical Transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus in a Cohort of Infected Women and Their Infants
Ellen R. Cooper,Robert P. Nugent,Clemente Diaz,Jane Pitt,Celine Hanson,Leslie A. Kalish,Hermann Mendez,Carmen Zorrilla,Ronald C. Hershow,John Moye,Vincent Smeriglio,Mary Glenn Fowler +11 more
TL;DR: In a perinatal HIV observational study, the release of results of ACTG Protocol 076 was associated with an increase in zidovudine use during pregnancy and a concomitant decline in HIV transmission from mothers to infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of tumors in infants with perinatal HIV-1 exposure and fetal/neonatal exposure to zidovudine.
I. Celine Hanson,Tracy A. Antonelli,Rhoda S. Sperling,James M. Oleske,Ellen R. Cooper,Mary Culnane,Mary Glenn Fowler,Leslie A. Kalish,Sophia Lee,George McSherry,Lynne M. Mofenson,David Shapiro +11 more
TL;DR: Evaluated the short-term risk for tumors in 727 children with known ZDV exposure enrolled into the PACTG 076/219 and the Women and Infants Transmission Study (WITS), finding no tumors of any nature were observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Encephalopathy and progression of human immunodeficiency virus disease in a cohort of children with perinatally acquired human immunodeficiency virus infection
Ellen R. Cooper,Celine Hanson,Clemente Diaz,Hermann Mendez,Rasha Abboud,Robert P. Nugent,Jane Pitt,Kenneth Rich,Evelyn M. Rodriguez,Vincent L. Smeriglio +9 more
TL;DR: Encephalopathy in children with HIV is common and is associated with high viral load, immunodeficiency, and shortened survival, although age at onset could not be predicted.
