A Vigilância Epidemiológica do HIV‐SIDA, permite conhecer diferentes aspectos
relacionados à distribuição e à disseminação da infecção pelo HIV. Dados obtidos por
estes estudos são de fundamental importância para definir programas de prevenção e
controle desta doença. Neste trabalho são...
HIV virology and pathogenetic mechanisms of
infection are continuously being investigated. A detailed understanding of HIV structure and how it
establishes infection and causes AIDS are crucial
not only to identify and develop new effective drugs
and vaccines, but also to define strategies for the labora...

Background: Resistant virus may be selected by sub-optimal control of HIV-1 replication during antiretroviral treatment. The incidence and profile of resistance in children receiving World Health Organization-recommended treatment remains to be evaluated on a large scale.
Goals: Assessment of the frequen...

Background: Maternal mortality is a major public-health problem in developing countries. Extreme differences in maternal mortality rates between developed and developing countries indicate that most of these deaths are preventable. Most information on the causes of maternal death in these areas is based ...
Background: The potential impact of HIV-1 on falciparum malaria has been difficult to determine
because of diagnostic problems and insufficient epidemiological data.
Methods: In a prospective, cross-sectional study, clinical and laboratory data was registered
consecutively for all adults admitted to a me...

A técnica do estudo do polimorfismo de fragmentos de restrição, com a pesquisa da seqüência de inserção IS6110 (IS6110-RFLP), é o método de genotipagem mais empregado
mundialmente para a caracterização de isolados de M. tuberculosis. Ela pode ser empregada para o estudo de surtos, epidemias ou...
