2017年7月6日 · The number of RSV-infected adults in an African study who also had HIV was quite high, with the burden of HIV disproportionately in the young. Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a virus that infiltrates the lungs and airways.

We review the available evidence on the interplay between RSV infection and HIV, looking at the specific role of RSV prophylactic strategies in individuals affected by or exposed to HIV. We conducted a systematic review on the association between …

We describe here a case of HIV-positive female with relatively preserved immune function who presented with RSV infection requiring ventilation and showed improvement after prompt treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin.

The incidence of RSV-associated SARI was higher in HIV-infected individuals and those aged 65 years and older. Further studies are warranted to describe the disease association of RSV detected in adults with SARI.

Low-level HIV-1 viraemia (LLV) remains a challenge, with its clinical interpretation being uncertain. The study systematically reviewed the available strategies for LLV management and identified gaps in current research concerning follow-up protocols, management of co-infections, and inflammatory marker assessments in LLV patients.

RV was the most commonly identified virus in cases with pneumonia (45.6%) or bronchiolitis (52.1%), regardless of HIV status, as well as in controls (39.6%). RV-A was identified in 26.7% of cases and 15.1% of controls while RV-C was identified in 21.0% of cases and 18.9% of controls.

We describe here a case of HIV-positive female with relatively preserved immune function who presented with RSV infection requiring ventilation and showed improvement after prompt treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is commonly known to cause an influenza-like illness.

2021年2月23日 · In our cohort, HIV-related PH appeared to be a mild-to-moderate with well-compensated RV function. Pertinent positive findings of PH included increased mPAP, PVR, Ees, Ea, and reduced RV FAC and RVOT VTI, while pertinent negative findings included no differences in ePASP, TAPSE, mPAAT, cardiac output, or Ees/Ea ratio.
