To:
Hi everyone,
Welcome to the 74th issue of HIV This Week ! In this issue we cover
these topics:
1. Biomedical interventions: vaccines
* A proof-of-concept breakthrough in Thailand invigorates HIV
vaccine scientists and activists around the world
* Why investing in vaccine research holds promise in the United
States
2. Paediatric HIV testing
* Kwazulu Natal points the way forward to universal access for
infants to HIV testing at immunization clinics
* Zambia reports excellent results of a routine offer of HIV
counselling to caregivers and HIV testing for hospitalized paediatric
patients
3. Masculinity and risk
* Gender-transformative programmes are about new ideas, attitudes,
behaviours, and ways of relating and parenting: bring on the new
masculinity that improves health and well-being!
* Intimate partner violence and risk of STI/HIV in the USA - how
are they related?
4. Foreskin inflammation
* Which comes first: HIV/HSV-2 infections or foreskin
inflammation. And where does penile hygiene fit in? Data from Rakai
provoke more questions
5. Health systems and human resources for health
* How have global health initiatives affected country health
systems: essential reading for all
* Lay counsellors in Zambia get excellent scores but is their
volunteer effort sustainable?
6. Men who have sex with men
* Serosorting, strategic positioning, and unprotected anal
intercourse among HIV-diagnosed men who have sex with men in the USA
* Circumcision pops up as protective in Soweto men who have sex
with men: what does this mean?
7. Prevention of mother-to-child transmission
* Never to be seen again: high transmission rates from
breastfeeding mothers in China infected through blood transfusion after
childbirth
* Resistance advantages for short course antiretroviral treatment
compared with zidovudine/sdNVP
8. Structural interventions - sex work
* A negative structural intervention: How bulldozers, sex work,
and HIV prevention had a rocky ride in Goa's red-light area
9. Treatment
* When to start antiretroviral treatment: some ideas from South
African modellers
* Cancer and HIV: what are the trends in France?
10. Basic Science
* The wily virus: multiple infections and HIV recombination in
women
11. Care
* What do we know and what more do we need to know about
macronutrient supplements for people living with HIV?
* One-third to one-half the world has worms: what should we do
about treating helminth co-infected individuals to slow HIV disease
progression?
12. Young people
* South African kids having been starting sex at the same age for
years but HIV has become a bed partner. What needs to be done?
