Testing algorithmHIV-1/2 testing is the first step in ensuring HIV-infected individuals are diagnosed and appropriately managed. The impact of suboptimal HIV-1/2 testing algorithms significantly contributes to
2. HIV-1 testing algorithm The AxSym HIV Ag/Ab Combo assay is used for all routine HIV screening requests. An input of 200 μl serum or plasma is needed for the test. In general, when the HIV Ag/Ab Combo result is non-reactive (negative) then the HIV serology is finished. The pati...

To evade host immune defences, human immunodeficiency viruses 1 and 2 (HIV-1 and HIV-2) have evolved auxiliary proteins that target cell restriction factors. Viral protein X (Vpx) from the HIV-2/SIVsmm lineage enhances viral infection by antagonizing SAMHD1 (refs12), but this antagonism is ...

immunologic correlates of protection to improve development of future HIV-1 pox-protein and other vaccine strategies. Trials in Thailand and South Africa have built upon the RV144 framework to provide additional immunologic insights which enable current and future efficacy testing of related vaccine ...
However, when risk factors are taken into account using the Framingham Risk scores and a new risk prediction algorithm, the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk algorithm, the CVD risk in HIV+ patients is underestimated (30). There is a need to understand how HIV infection ...

Currently, vaccine trials are using an algorithm of HIV detection that incorporates antibody or antigen-based kits, followed by Western Blots and finally, confirmatory PCR based assays. Unfortunately, many of the vaccine trial participants, irrespective of their HIV infection status, seroconvert in ...
