Hybrid capture as a tool for cervical lesions screening in HIV-infected women: ...
Jalil,Emilia Moreira; Luz,Paula M.; Quintana,Marcel; Friedman,Ruth Khalili; Madeira,Rosa M. Domingues S.; Andrade,Angela Cristina; Chicarino,JaniceABSTRACT Introduction: Cervical cancer remains an important burden for HIV-infected women in the era of combination antiretroviral therapy. Recommendations for cervical screening in these women diverge and may include high-risk HPV (HRHPV) testing. We aimed to evaluate the clinical usefulness of a single HRHPV testing for cervical screening of HIV-infected women. Methods: 723 HIV-infected women from a Brazilian...

Araujo,Elaine S. Pires; Friedman,Ruth Khalili; Camacho,Luis Antonio Bastos; Derrico,Monica; Moreira,Ronaldo Ismério; Calvet,Guilherme AmaralOBJECTIVES: To describe the access to the interventions for the prevention of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) mother to child transmission and mother to child transmission rates in the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro, from 1999 to 2009.METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study. Prevention of HIV mother to child transmission interventions were accessed and mother to child transmission rates were calculated.RE...
Incidence of antiretroviral adverse drug reactions in pregnant women in two ref...
Santini-Oliveira,Marilia; Friedman,Ruth Khalili; Veloso,Valdilea Gonçalves; Cunha,Cynthia Braga; Pilotto,José Henrique; Marins,Luana Monteiro SpindolaMother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection remains an important cause of new HIV infections worldwide, especially in low and middle-resource limited countries. Safety data from studies involving pregnant women and prenatal antiretroviral (ARV) exposure are still needed once these studies are often small and with a limited duration to assess adverse drug reactions (ADR). ...
Aging with HIV: an overview of an urban cohort in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) acros...
Torres,Thiago Silva; Cardoso,Sandra Wagner; Velasque,Luciane de Souza; Marins,Luana Monteiro Spindola; Oliveira,Marília Santini deThe introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy during the 1990s was crucial to the decline in the rates of morbidity and death related to the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and turned human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection into a chronic condition. Consequently, the HIV/AIDS population is becoming older. The aim of this study was to describe the immunological, clinical and comorbidity...
Accuracy of a probabilistic record linkage strategy applied to identify deaths ...
Fonseca,Maria Goretti Pereira; Coeli,Cláudia Medina; Lucena,Francisca de Fátima de Araújo; Veloso,Valdilea Gonçalves; Carvalho,Marilia SáSince record linkage errors can bias measures of disease occurrence and association, it is important to assess their accuracy. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy of a multiple pass probabilistic record linkage strategy to identify deaths among persons reported to the Brazilian AIDS surveillance database. An HIV/AIDS national surveillance database (N = 559,442) was linked to a total of 6,444,822 dea...
