Révélé au monde il y a vingt ans, le SIDA est aujourd'hui reconnu comme une maladie sexuellement transmissible qui peut atteindre n'importe quel individu qui n'a pas respecté des principes élémentaires de protection. La femme est particulièrement sensible et exposée aux infections transmises lors des rapports sexuels, du fait de ses particularités anatomiques et des conditions socio-économiques et culturelles susceptibles de limiter son information et ses possibilités de prévention. Rédigé par les plus grands spécialistes francophones de la question, Le SIDA au féminin dresse un bilan de l'épidémie et propose une synthèse des travaux sur les femmes face au VIH, aujourd'hui, dans le monde. Fruit d'une collaboration pluridisciplinaire, il aborde des points très divers : la particularité et l'évolution de la maladie chez la femme, la transmission sexuelle du VIH et les possibilités de prévention et de contraception, les questions soulevées lors d'une grossesse, le diagnostic et la prise en charge thérapeutique. Cet ouvrage s'adresse aux gynécologues-obstétriciens, aux pédiatres et à tous les médecins, sages-femmes, travailleurs sociaux et psychologues qui sont, ou seront un jour ou l'autre, en contact avec des femmes séropositives.

Liver disease has been identified as a leading cause of death in HIV-infected patients since the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in 1996. The HIV treatment community has been caught largely unaware of this emerging dilemma. Many HIV care providers are ill-equipped to understand and interpret liver injury patterns, or to provide comprehensive care and management for viral coinfections which they are not familiar with. HIV and Liver Disease provides a comprehensive update of the field covering the epidemiology, pathogenesis, management and treatment of liver disease in patients with HIV infection. The volume will help HIV care providers understand and interpret liver injury patterns, and/or provide comprehensive care and management for viral coinfections. Gastroenterologists and hepatologists will gain an understanding of complex drug regimens that are used to treat HIV and which may impact HCV and HBV treatment. Written by expert clinicians and researchers across multiple disciplines, HIV and Liver Disease will be of great value to gastroenterologists, hepatologists, infectious disease practitioners, as well as other health care providers who provide care or participate in research in the field of HIV.

Chemokines and their receptors are being recognized as an integral component of the nervous system implicated in fundamental aspects of development and homeostasis, such as neurotransmission, proliferation, differentiation, and neuronal-glial communication. Thus, their involvement in HIV neuropathology goes far beyond the co-receptors role and entails complex interactions of the chemokine system with different cell types and other regulators of neuronal function. The major goal of this volume is to review these topics in order to highlight alterations of chemokine physiology that may contribute to neuroAIDS and other neuropathologies. This book will be of interest to neuroscientists, neurologists, virologists, pharmacologists, and students in these fields. About the Editor: Olimpia Meucci, MD, PhD is a Professor of Pharmacology and Physiology & Microbiology and Immunology at Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia, PA. Since her seminal discovery about the regulation of neuronal signaling by chemokines, her research has primarily focused on the physio-pathological roles of this important class of neuroimmune modulators in the central nervous system and their involvement in neuroAIDS. These studies have significantly contributed to current understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms of HIV-related neuropathology including the interaction of the chemokine system with drug of abuse, namely opiates, which continues to be a major area of investigation in the Meucci lab.
