In recent years, the incidence rate of ischemic stroke in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) is increasing, attracting wide attention from scholars at home and abroad. In addition to traditional risk factors of stroke, the secondary ischemic stroke in PLWHA is also affected by HIV infection. This study reviews the incidence rate and risk factors of secondary ischemic stroke in PLWHA, in order to provide a theoretical basis for preventing and reducing the incidence of ischemic stroke in PLWHA.
Objective To investigate the feasibility and methods of surgical treatment for HIV/AIDS patients with otolaryngology diseases. Methods From January 2016 to February 2017, nineteen patients with HIV/AIDS who underwent otolaryngology surgery were included in this study. The demographic data of patients, including age, gender, course of disease, CD4+ T lymphocyte count before operation and disease type were collected and the clinical treatment methods were summarized. The curative effect was analyzed retrospectively. Results The operations of all the 19 patients were successful without occupational exposure among medical staff. One patient with papillary squamous cell carcinoma did not received further treatment. The other 18 patients recovered well and their life quality was significantly improved. Conclusions If HIV/AIDS patients with otolaryngological diseases are examined preoperatively and have no surgical contraindications, the operation shloud be performed by controlling the surgical indications strictly. The life quality of the patients may be improved and the patients’ life may be prolonged after the surgery.

Methods The clinical manifestations and related laboratory results of 13 inpatients treated in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2005 to June 2010 were reviewed retrospectively. Results The incidence of infection in these patients was 100% with tuberculosis as the most common infection. Apart from the abnormality of T lymphocytes, most patients had a change of hematology and biochemistry, including anemia, depression of leucocytes and platelets, hyperglobulinemia and hypoproteinemia; HIV-infected patients may also presented with rheumatic manifestations or abnormality in the immune system. Conclusion The clinical manifestations of patients with AIDS are complicated. Many kinds of infections and rheumatic manifestations may merge and the change in hematology and immunology is common.
【摘要】 目的 研究人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)感染者和获得性免疫缺陷综合症(AIDS)患者CD4+T淋巴细胞数变化(ΔCD4+T)和外周血淋巴细胞总数变化(ΔTLC)的相关性。探讨用ΔTLC预测ΔCD4+T在监测HIV/AIDS患者疾病进展以及高效抗逆转录病毒治疗(HAART)疗效的价值。 方法 回顾性分析2005〖CD3/5〗2008年确诊的91例HIV/AIDS患者的临床资料。 结果 ΔTLC与ΔCD4+T呈直线正相关(r=0809,Plt;001),好于TLC与CD4+T的相关性(r=0712,Plt;001)。分别用ΔTLC 170、330、630、910个/μL细胞预测ΔCD4+T 50、100、200、300个/μL细胞时具有较好的预测价值,各项评价指标符合率基本达到90%以上,显著高于相同时间下用TLC预测CD4+T计数的价值。 结论 应用ΔTLC预测ΔCD4+T,可比TLC更加直观、准确的反映HIV感染者疾病进展和评价AIDS患者HAART的疗效。【Abstract 】Objective To assess the utility of total lymphocyte count (TLC) changes (ΔTLC) in place of TLC to predict the development of HIV/AIDS. To investigate the monitoring value of ΔCD4+T on progress of HIV/AIDS and HAART which predicted by ΔTLC. Methods Clinical data of 91 patiens with HIV/AIDS diagnosed from 2005 to 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Results A linear correlation was found between the value of ΔTLC and the value of CD4+T changes(ΔCD4+T)(r=0809,Plt;001),which was better than the correlation between TLC and CD4+T (r=0712,Plt;001).Using ΔTLC as 170,330,630,910 cells/μL,respectively for forecasting ΔCD4+T as 50,100,200,300 cells/μL,respectively,had a better predictive value with the area under ROC curve near to 09,significantly higher than using TLC for predicting CD4+T counts. Conclusion ΔTLC is more accurate than TLC to reflect the development of HIV/AIDS.
Objective To investigate the long-term dynamic changes of liver function and glucose-lipid metabolism in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) after antiretroviral therapy (ART). Methods HIV-infected patients who visited Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu between October 1st, 2012 and June 30th, 2013 were recruited and divided into two groups according to whether they had MAFLD or not. All of them were treated with the first-line regimen of tenofovir + lamivudine + efavirenz for 156 weeks, and the anthropometric indices, liver function, and levels of glucose, lipids and uric acid were measured at baseline and at each follow-up time point. In addition, the long-term dynamic characteristics of liver function and glucose and lipid metabolism parameters of the two groups were compared during the 156 weeks of ART treatment. Results A total of 61 male HIV-infected patients were enrolled. The prevalence of MAFLD in them was 31.1% (19/61) at baseline and increased by 4.9 percentage points per year after ART. Before the start of follow-up (week 0), the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [(46.23±27.09) vs. (28.00±17.43) U/L, P=0.002] and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) [(41.46±9.89) vs. (24.02±10.72) U/L, P<0.001] were higher in the MAFLD group than those in the non-MAFLD group, while the between-group differences in the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) [(33.33±15.61) vs. (28.98±12.43) U/L, P=0.248] and alkaline phosphatase [(85.30±21.27) vs. (83.41±24.47) U/L, P=0.773] were not statistically significant. During the 156-week follow-up period, the 4 items of liver function gradually increased in the MAFLD group, especially from week 120 onwards, 3 of which (ALT, AST and GGT) were significantly higher than those in the non-MAFLD group (P<0.05). In addition, the levels of fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein were also significantly higher in the MAFLD group than those in the non-MAFLD group at some time points during the 156-week follow-up period (P<0.05). Conclusions Compared with HIV-infected patients without MAFLD, HIV-infected patients with MAFLD are more likely to develop impaired liver function and disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism during long-term tenofovir + lamivudine + efavirenz regimen ART treatment. Therefore, close clinical monitoring of liver function and glucose and lipid metabolism related parameters is required for such patients.
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a severe infectious disease induced by human immuno deficiency virus (HIV). Laboratory testing plays an important role in the diagnosis of HIV/AIDS. In general, laboratory testing includes detection of virus antibodies and antigens, virus RNA, immune cells (CD4+, CD8+) and anti-HIV drug resistance. During the past twenty years, great progress has been made in laboratory testing. As research on HIV/AIDS has advanced and biotechnology has developed rapidly, different methods of testing have been discovered. In recent years, the application of molecular biotechnology and immunology has led to important advances for epidemiological surveys, clinical diagnosis and treatment of HIV. The existence of a testing method with high sensitivity and specificity is not only helpful for early diagnosis and prediction, monitoring and evaluation of therapeutic efficacy, but can also reduce the risk of false-negative results. HIV laboratory testing is now developing towards a simple, rapid, sensitive, accurate and automatic way of diagnosing this condition.
