Genital shedding of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 DNA during pregnancy: association with immunosuppression, abnormal cervical or vaginal discharge, and severe vitamin A deficiency

John, G; Nduati, RW; Mbori-Ngacha, DA; Overbaugh, J; Welch, M; Richardson, B; Ndinya-Achola, JO; Bwayo, JJ; Krieger, J; Onyango, F; Kreiss, J K (1997-01)

The presence of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in genital secretions may be a determinant of vertical HIV-1 transmission. Cervical and vaginal secretions from HIV-1–seropositive pregnant women were evaluated ...

Studies of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 mucosal viral shedding and transmission in Kenya.

Overbaugh, J; Kreiss, J; Poss, M; Lewis, P; Mostad, S; John, G; Nduati, RW; Mbori-Ngacha, DA; Martin, H Jr; Richardson, B; Jackson, S; Neilson, J; Long, EM; Panteleeff, D; Welch, M; Rakwar, J; Jackson, D; Chohan, B; Lavreys, L; Mandaliya, K; Ndinya-Achola, JO; Bwayo, JJ (University of Nairobi., 1999-05)

If human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) vaccines are to be highly effective, it is essential to understand the virologic factors that contribute to HIV-1 transmission. It is likely that transmission is determined, ...

Cell-free human immunodeficiency virus type 1 in breast milk

Lewis, P; Nduati, RW; Kreiss, JK; John, GC; Richardson, BA; Mbori-Ngacha, DA; Ndinya-Achola, JO; Overbaugh, J (University of Nairobi, 1998)

Breast-feeding may be an important route of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) vertical transmission in settings where it is routinely practiced. To define the prevalence and quantity of HIV-1 in cell-free breast ...

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected cells in breast milk: association with immunosuppression and vitamin A deficiency

Nduati, RW; John, R C; Richardson, BA; Overbaugh, J; Welch, M; Ndinya-Achola, JO; Moses, S; Holmes, K; Onyango, F; Kreiss, J K (1995-12)

Breast milk samples from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-seropositive women were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction to determine the prevalence and determinants of HIV-1-infected cells in breast milk. Breast ...
