Article Title: Treatment of HIV infection and its complications
Abstract: Because the AIDS epidemic continues to grow, there is a sense of urgency to develop new treatment strategies, both for HIV infection and for AIDS- related illnesses. The rapid gathering of basic information related to HIV type 1 biology and opportunistic infections has led to an explosion in physicians' ability to diagnose, prevent, and treat HIV disease and its associated complications. Research in this rapidly evolving field is likely to lead to further advances in the months and years that follow.
