Effect of Baseline HIV Disease Parameters on CD4+ T Cell Recovery After Antiretroviral Therapy Initiation in Kenyan Women
(2010)
Background
Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for HIV infection reconstitutes the immune system and improves survival. However, the rate and extent of CD4+ T cell recovery varies widely. We assessed the impact of several ...
Blunted IL17/IL22 and pro-inflammatory cytokine responses in the genital tract and blood of HIV Exposed, seronegative female sex workers in Kenya
(2012)
Identifying the immune correlates of reduced susceptibility to HIV remains a key goal for the HIV vaccine field, and individuals who are HIV-exposed, seronegative (HESN) may offer important clues. Reduced systemic immune ...
Does antiretroviral therapy initiation increase sexual risk taking in Kenyan female sex workers? A retrospective case–control study
(2012)
Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) prolongs life and reduces infectiousness, in some contexts, it has been associated with increased sexual risk taking.
Design
Retrospective case–control study.

Blunted IL17/IL22 and Pro-Inflammatory Cytokine Responses in the Genital Tract and Blood of HIV-Exposed, Seronegative Female Sex Workers in Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
Identifying the immune correlates of reduced susceptibility to HIV remains a key goal for the HIV vaccine field, and individuals who are HIV-exposed, seronegative (HESN) may offer important clues. Reduced systemic immune ...
HIV-1 Clade D Is Associated with Increased Rates of CD4 Decline in a Kenyan Cohort
(University of Nairobi, 2012)
HIV-1 is grouped phylogenetically into clades, which may impact rates of HIV-1 disease progression. Clade D infection in particular has been shown to be more pathogenic. Here we confirm in a Nairobi-based prospective female ...
