1. HLA-G polymorphism in mother-child transmission of HIV-1 / Polimorfismo do HLA-G na transmissão materno-infantil do HIV-1
The main way of HIV-1 infection in children is mother-child transmission (MTCT). TMI rates estimates for HIV-1 are 3% in pregnant women in antiretroviral therapy and 25 to 30% for untreated ones. Despite the viral exposure during pregnancy, most newborns are not vertically infected, suggesting the existence of protective barriers to TMI of HIV-1. Several fac

2. Influência do polimorfismo do gene do CCR-5 na transmissão materno-infantil do HIV-1 / The influence of polymorphism of the CCR-5 gene in the maternal-infant transmission of HIV-1
The main via of infection by Human Imunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) in children is the maternal-infant transmission (MIT). Several factors can be associated to MIT of HIV- 1. It\ s believed that the homozygote individual to the allele CCR5-?32 are resistant to the infection of HIV-1. Considering that the role of the mechanisms involved are still controversial,

5. Prenatal screening for congenital toxoplasmosis in Campania: preliminary report on activities and results
By 1997, an open cohort of 1,652 live newborn of 1,637 mothers with gestational toxoplasmosis had been recruited in the Campania region to monitor the burden of congenital toxoplasmosis (CT). Of the 1,556 mother-child pairs that completed the follow up, 92 definite cases were detected, yielding a 5.9% (4.8-7.1 95% CI) transmission rate. The onset was patent

11. Frequent Detection of Escape from Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Recognition in Perinatal Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Type 1 Transmission: the Ariel Project for the Prevention of Transmission of HIV from Mother to Infant
Host immunologic factors, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), are thought to contribute to the control of HIV type 1 (HIV-1) replication and thus delay disease progression in infected individuals. Host immunologic factors are also likely to influence perinatal transmission of HIV-1 from infected mother to infa

12. Infant-feeding Practices among HIV-infected Mothers in an HIV-treatment Programme
The transmission of HIV via breastmilk has led to various recommendations for HIV-infected mothers. In this study, the feeding practices of HIV-infected mothers in the first six months of their infants’ lives were evaluated. In total, 103 consecutive mothers of children, aged 6-24 months, were evaluated for their feeding practices in the first six months o
