TLDR
For the initial treatment of HIV-infected adults, a combination regimen that includes lopinavir-ritonavir is well tolerated and has antiviral activity superior to that of a nelfinavIR-containing regimen.Citations

TL;DR: The virologic target for patients with treatment failure is now a plasma HIV-1 RNA level below 50 copies/mL, making delivery of state-of-the-art care challenging.

TL;DR: In this article, the CD4 cell count at which combination antiretroviral therapy should be started is examined in the absence of randomised trials in prospective cohort studies, and the effect of deferred initiation of combination therapy with immediate initiation on rates of AIDS and death, and on death alone, in adjacent CD4 cells ranges of width 100 cells per microL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): current status and future perspectives.
TL;DR: Intensive research on the newly emerged SARS-CoV-2 is urgently needed to elucidate the pathogenic mechanisms and epidemiological characteristics and to identify potential drug targets, which will contribute to the development of effective prevention and treatment strategies.

Declining morbidity and mortality among patients with advanced human immunodeficiency virus infection. HIV Outpatient Study Investigators.
Frank J. Palella,Kathleen M. Delaney,Anne C. Moorman,Mark O. Loveless,Jack Fuhrer,Glen A. Satten,Diane J. Aschman,Scott D. Holmberg +7 more
TL;DR: The recent declines in morbidity and mortality due to AIDS are attributable to the use of more intensive antiretroviral therapies.

Adherence to protease inhibitor therapy and outcomes in patients with HIV infection.
David L. Paterson,Susan Swindells,J. Mohr,Michelle Brester,Emanuel N. Vergis,Cheryl Squier,Marilyn M. Wagener,Nina Singh +7 more
TL;DR: Given the critical importance of adherence to therapy to patient outcome, secondary prevention of HIV infection, and willingness of providers to prescribe therapy, this prospectively investigated the association between protease inhibitor adherence and patient outcome and factors related to adherence.

TL;DR: Methods for conducting surveillance of dracunculiasis and other important diseases must continue to be developed and improved as countries now believed to be free of dracanculiasis prepare to apply to WHO for certification of elimination.

Efavirenz plus Zidovudine and Lamivudine, Efavirenz plus Indinavir, and Indinavir plus Zidovudine and Lamivudine in the Treatment of HIV-1 Infection in Adults

TL;DR: As antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1-infected adults, the combination of efavirenz, zidovudine, and lamivudine has greater antiviral activity and is better tolerated than the combination.
