Longitudinal assessment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-specific gamma interferon responses during the first year of life in HIV-1-infected infants.
(University of Nairobi., 2005-07)
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection results in different patterns of viral replication in pediatric compared to adult populations. The role of early HIV-1-specific responses in viral control has not been ...
Infants with late breast milk acquisition of HIV-1 generate interferon-gamma responses more rapidly than infants with early peripartum acquisition
(2009)
Infants infected with HIV-1 after the first month of life have a lower viral
set-point and slower disease progression than infants infected before 1
month. We investigated the kinetics of HIV-1-specific CD8+ T ...
Early response to highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1-infected Kenyan children
(2007)
OBJECTIVES:
To describe the early response to World Health Organization (WHO)-recommended nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-based first-line highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in HIV-1-infected ...

Prevalence, perceptions, and correlates of pediatric HIV disclosure in an HIV treatment program in Kenya.
(2012)
Disclosure to HIV-infected children regarding their diagnosis is important as expanding numbers of HIV-infected children attain adolescence and may become sexually active. In order to define correlates of pediatric disclosure ...
Salivary secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor is associated with reduced transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 through breast milk
(University of Nairobi., 2002-10)
Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), a protein found in saliva, breast milk, and genital secretions, is capable of inhibiting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 in vitro. The aim of this study was to ...
Antenatal couple counselling increases uptake of intervention to prevent HIV-1 tranmission
(2004-12)
To determine effect of partner involvement and couple counseling on uptake of interventions to prevent HIV-1 transmission, women attending a Nairobi antenatal clinic were encouraged to return with partners for voluntary ...
