| dc.description.abstract | Malaria and HIV infections are both highly prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa, with HIV-infected patients
being at higher risk of acquiring malaria. HIV-1 infection is known to impair the immune response and may increase
the incidence of clinical malaria. However, a positive association between HIV-1 and malaria parasitaemia is still
evolving. Equally, the effect of malaria on HIV-1 disease stage has not been well established, but when fever and
parasitemia are high, malaria may be associated with transient increases in HIV-1 viral load, and progression of HIV-1
asymptomatic disease phase to AIDS. | en_US |
