Hiv Diagnosis

The handheld device also helps in rapid detection of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), IIT Delhi said.

Testing positive for HIV was difficult enough. Getting forced out of the military by the Air Force because of the diagnosis proved even harder. So say two USairmen who filed suit on Wednesday against Defense Secretary Jim Mattis in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia

TB deaths have decreased over the past year, with an estimated 10 million people having developed TB and 1.6 million deaths, including among 300,000 HIV-positive people, in 2017.

Stanford engineers, including those of Indian origin, have built an ultra-low-cost, human-powered centrifuge that separates blood into its individual components in only 1.5 minutes, and may enable precise diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as malaria, HIV and tuberculosis.

Researchers have developed a highly sensitive disposable biosensor that can detect sub-populations' white blood cells that are key to diagnosis of HIV/AIDS.

During the Today interview last week, Sheen framed the situation by saying he was forced to reveal his diagnosis because he was being extorted for $10 million. "What people forget is that's money they are taking from my children," Sheen said. "They think it's just me, but I've got five kids and a granddaughter"

Charlie Sheen said he revealed his diagnosis after a spate of recent tabloid rumors about his condition. Although he once made nearly $2 million per episode as star of the CBS hit Two and a Half Men, the payouts had taken a toll, he said. It's money "they're taking from my children," Sheen said

With Charlie Sheen's diagnosis, we see the truth of the matter: We're not quite over the desire to prove that HIV is something dirty and dangerous that only dangerous, dirty people get. This was made all too clear in Sheen's Today Show interview, where he revealed his status in response to repeated attempts at blackmail

Charlie Sheen said he had known about the diagnosis for about four years and at first thought that he had a brain tumour. "It is a hard three letters to absorb," he said. He said he did not know how he contracted the disease. He also said that he paid people "into the millions" to stay quiet about the diagnosis. "That is money taken away from my ki...

When the Internet learned of Charlie Sheen's HIV status, the response was what you'd expect - in 1990, maybe. We saw a throwback to a time before we knew better, when such a diagnosis had fearful, ignorant bystanders desperate to prove to themselves that those suffering from the incurable, deadly Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) had done someth...

A nanoscale machine composed of synthetic DNA can be used for rapid, sensitive and low-cost diagnosis of many diseases, including HIV and rheumatoid arthritis, scientists say.

Researchers have designed and synthesised a nanometer-scale DNA "machine" that can make the process of detecting the antibodies that can help with the diagnosis of infectious and auto-immune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and HIV much cheaper.

The World Health Organization said on Wednesday that all people with the HIV virus should be given anti-retroviral drugs as soon as possible after diagnosis, meaning 37 million people worldwide should be on treatment.

A team of researchers from Columbia University have developed a low-cost smartphone dongle that can detect HIV and syphilis in just 15 minutes by using a finger-prick of blood.

The annual rate of diagnosis with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, fell by a third in the United States between 2002 and 2011, researchers reported on Saturday.
