TL;DR: Although the CVD risk profile among patients in the Data Collection on Adverse Events of Anti-HIV Drugs Study has decreased since 1999, rates have remained relatively stable, possibly as a result of a more aggressive approach towards managing the risk of CVD.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of behavioural changes on the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis C among injecting drug users
TL;DR: This analysis suggests that under current drug injecting behaviour, HIV prevalence in IDU in Australia should remain below 1% but that HCV prevalence will stay elevated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Back-projection estimates of the number of dependent heroin users in Australia
TL;DR: Back-projection estimates based on analyses of treatment entries and opioid overdose deaths provide an additional method for estimating the numbers of heroin-dependent people in the population, and are indicated to have increased substantially from the early 1970s onwards.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ben B Hui,Christopher K Fairley,Marcus Y Chen,Andrew E. Grulich,Jane S Hocking,Garrett Prestage,Sandra Walker,Matthew Law,David G. Regan +8 more
TL;DR: The authors' models suggest that oral sex has an important role in sustaining gonorrhoea in a population of MSM by providing a pool of untreated asymptomatic infection.

Helen Patterson,S Gill,Cyril Fisher,Matthew Law,H Jayatilake,Christopher D.M. Fletcher,M Thomas,Robert J. Grimer,B.A. Gusterson,Colin Cooper +9 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that alterations in both the p53 gene and MDM2 gene are important in the development of a significant minority of leiomyosarcomas, and the role of the DCC tumour-suppressor gene in theDevelopment of human soft-tissue tumours in a variety of histological types.
