Pain in people living with HIV/AIDS: a systematic review
Tập 17 Số 1 - 2014

implemented state‐of‐the‐art antiretroviral treatment guidelines, including
early initiation of treatment (<350 cells/mm3), tenofovir in first line, and
nurse‐initiated and managed HIV care, including antiretroviral therapy (ART), at
primary ...

Tập 17 Số 1 - 2014
IntroductionThere is a remarkable dearth of evidence on mental illness in
adolescents living with HIV/AIDS, particularly in the African setting.
Furthermore, there are few studies in sub‐Saharan Africa validating the
psychometric properties of diagnostic and screening tools for depression amongst
adolescents. The primary aim of this cross‐sectional study was to estimate the
prevalence of depressio...

the perinatal period, rather than considering HIV as a family disease. This
limited focus restricts programmes' effectiveness, and the opportunity to
broaden prevention measures has largely been overlooked.Although prevention of
vertical transmi...
