TLDR
A subset of individuals with HIV/AIDS experience high levels of acute stress reactivity to life events considered non-traumatic, and HIV-infected individuals who react strongly to ongoing life stressors are more likely to have developed PTSD symptoms in response to previous traumatic life events.Abstract:
Objective:This study examined the prevalence of acute stress reactions to recent life events among persons living with HIV/AIDS. A second aim was to investigate the relationship of acute stress rea...read more

Oxana Palesh,Kate Collie,Daniel Batiuchok,Jackie Tilston,Cheryl Koopman,Michael L. Perlis,Lisa D. Butler,Robert W. Carlson,David Spiegel +8 more
TL;DR: Depression, especially worsening depression, was associated with the greatest number of types of negative change in self-reported sleep disturbances and the relationships found between sleep disturbance and depression, pain, and life stress suggest specific ways to address the problem of sleep disturbance for women with metastatic breast cancer.

Acute Stress Disorder Revisited
Etzel Cardeña,Eve B. Carlson +1 more
TL;DR: Recommendations for changes in DSM-5 criteria and the development of more sophisticated research that considers ASD as but one of two or possibly three common acute posttraumatic syndromes are concluded.

Psychiatric co-morbidity in vulnerable populations receiving primary care for HIV/AIDS.

TL;DR: Current clinical practices could be improved with the use of appropriate tools and procedures to screen and diagnose mental health disorders in populations with HIV/AIDS.

HIV infection associated post-traumatic stress disorder and post-traumatic growth--a systematic review.
TL;DR: This systematic review was set out to explore post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and PTG in people with HIV to monitor prevalence, measurement and efficacy of interventions to reduce stress and/or promote growth and found PTG was under researched but showed a promising avenue of study.

The Relationship of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder and Depression to Antiretroviral Medication Adherence in Persons with HIV
Ana-Maria Vranceanu,Steven A. Safren,Minyi Lu,William Coady,Paul R. Skolnik,William H. Rogers,Ira B. Wilson +6 more
TL;DR: Only depression contributed significant unique variance to multiple regression analyses that included both continuous and dichotomous PTSD and depression and controlled for shared variance due to clustering of multiple observations, suggesting the primary role of depression and the secondary role of PTSD in poor adherence in individuals with HIV.

Protective and Damaging Effects of Stress Mediators
TL;DR: The long-term effect of the physiologic response to stress is reviewed, which I refer to as allostatic load, which is the ability to achieve stability through change.

Psychometric properties of the PTSD Checklist (PCL).
TL;DR: The psychometric properties of the PTSD Checklist, a new, brief, self-report instrument, were determined on a population of 40 motor vehicle accident victims and sexual assault victims using diagnoses and scores from the CAPS as the criteria to support the value of the PCL as a brief screening instrument for PTSD.

Treatment with Indinavir, Zidovudine, and Lamivudine in Adults with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection and Prior Antiretroviral Therapy

TL;DR: In most HIV-infected patients with prior antiretroviral therapy, the combination of indinavir, zidovudine, and lamivudine reduces levels of HIV RNA to less than 500 copies per milliliter for as long as one year.

Stress-related cortisol secretion in men: relationships with abdominal obesity and endocrine, metabolic and hemodynamic abnormalities
TL;DR: Interactions between diurnal cortisol secretion related to perceived stress and anthropometric, endocrine, metabolic, and hemodynamic variables seem to occur with apparently normal regulation of the HPA axis.

Clinical progression and virological failure on highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1 patients : a prospective cohort study
Bruno Ledergerber,Matthias Egger,Milos Opravil,Amalio Telenti,Bernard Hirschel,Manuel Battegay,Pietro Vernazza,Philippe Sudre,Markus Flepp,Hansjakob Furrer,P Francioli,Rainer Weber +11 more
TL;DR: The rate of virological failure of HAART was high among patients with a history of antiretroviral treatment, but the probability of clinical progression was low even in patients with viral rebound.
