INFECTION BY HIV


of HIV-1 budding from cultured Lymphocyte .]]

AIDS is the most severe acceleration of Infection with HIV. HIV is a Retrovirus that primarily infects vital organs of the human Immune System such as CD4+ T Cells (a subset of T Cell s), Macrophage s and Dendritic Cell s. It directly and indirectly destroys CD4+ T cells. CD4+ T cells are required for the proper functioning of the immune system. When HIV kills CD4+ T cells so that there are fewer than 200 CD4+ T cells per Microliter (µL) of Blood , Cellular Immunity is lost, leading to the condition known as AIDS. Acute HIV infection progresses over time to clinical latent HIV infection and then to early Symptomatic HIV infection and later to AIDS, which is identified on the basis of the amount of CD4+ T cells in the blood and the presence of certain infections.

DIAGNOSIS

Since June 5 , 1981 , many definitions have been developed for Epidemiological surveillance such as the Bangui Definition and the 1994 Expanded World Health Organization AIDS Case Definition . However, clinical staging of patients was not an intended use for these systems as they are neither sensitive, nor specific. In developing countries, the World Health Organization staging system for HIV infection and disease, using clinical and laboratory data, is used and in developed countries, the Centers For Disease Control (CDC) Classification System is used.
