TL;DR: Daily acyclovir therapy did not reduce the risk of transmission of HIV-1, despite a reduction in plasma HIV- 1 RNA of 0.25 log(10) copies per milliliter and a 73% reduction in the occurrence of genital ulcers due to HSV-2.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relative contribution of viral and bacterial sexually transmitted infections on HIV acquisition in southern African women in the Methods for Improving Reproductive Health in Africa study.
