Cards

Term
what do HIV replicate
Definition

1. binds and fuses to cell surfaceCD4 cell surface receptor

2.virus penetrates the cell surface and then does reverse transcription RNA> DNA

3.integrtes into the human DNA with HUman integrase

4. transcribes with the HIV DNA

7. assembly and chains come together

8. BUDS out and takes some of the membrance with it

9. breaks free of infected cell and matures into a working virus by 

Term

what does point mutatins allow

 

Definition

rapid evolution under selective pressure

so it can jump cross species

Term
what are the two types of HIV
Definition

HIV1 found world wide and jumped from chimps to humans

HIV2- originates in south africa from sooty mangabees

Term
which one is similar to SIV and may have come from hunting chimps
Definition
HIV2
Term
What allows HIV to escape from host immune response or therapy
Definition
variant genotypes developing over the course of the infection
Term
who has most of the new infections
Definition
minority and women and youth with poor access to health care
Term
modes of transmission
Definition
heterosexual, homosexual love making, injection, vertical,blood
Term
women and HIV
Definition

more than 40% of all cases 

25%new infections in adults younger than 25y with 6xmore females

increase in vertical transmission

Term
how to prevent vertical transmission
Definition

intrapartum: nivariprine, dose before and after deliever, c-section

postpartum: formula, short duration breastfeeding 

treat breast milk

antiretroviral therapy during breast feeding

Term
primary HIV infection
Definition

flu like symptoms 

CD4 cell count down

oppurtunistic infections

nutritional decline and wasting

Term
pathophysiology 
Definition

immune system activity elevated - constant inflammation

hormonal and nutrient metabolism

protien turnover

malabsroption so malnutrition

increase risk for other chronic disease

 

Term
pathophysiology and disorders
Definition
neurological, pulmonary, CVD manifestations, anemia, bone mineral density decreasse, renal failue, AIDS
Term
Diagnostic tests 
Definition

serum or plasma for HIV antibodies

early infection anitobody,antigen, and viral RNA

western blot, IFA, LIA, PCR

genotype and phenotype assay

Term
Diagnostic categories
Definition

CDC: CD4 count and clinical characteristic

WHO: clinical characteristics

Term
CD4 cell count categories
Definition

500 cat 1

00-499 cat 2

200 cat 3

Term
CDC clincal category
Definition

A: no symptoms but generalised lymphadenopathy 

B: fever, diahrrhea, cell mediated immunity defect, oral dysplasia, cervical issues

C: AIDS, cervical cancer, candidiasis

Term
WHO clinical category
Definition

HIV: acute retroviral 

clinical stage 1: asymptomatic generalized lymphadenopathy

stage 2: <10 percent weight loss, herpes zoster, UTI, fungal infections 

s3: >10 weight loss symptoms of fever and diaherrea, anemia, bacterial infections

s4: HIV wasting syndrom chronic diarrhea, opputunistic diseases/

Term
treatment:
Definition

antiretroviral drugs that reduce destruction of immune cells

prevention and treatment of opportunistic infection

modulation of altered hormonal balance

maintance and resotration of nutritional stratus

Term
antiretroviral meds:
Definition

entry fusion inhibitors, nucleosude reverse transcriptase inhibitors

non- nucleoside reverse transcriptase

integrase

portease

Term
how do we prescribe HIV therapy
Definition
2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and one from of the other classes
Term
what are the major concerns of HIV treatment
Definition
-cost, resistance, drug schedule and meal food requirements, side effects, physical and biochemical abnormalities
Term
Nutritional and metabolic consequences of the drugs
Definition

mitochondrial toxicity, increased plamsacholestorol and triglycerides: many HIV patients are overweight

Decreased insulin sensitivitt

lipodystrophy: increased visceral adiposity

 

Term
dylipidemia interventions
Definition
Diet and lifestyle, switching and antiretrovirus agents, drug treatment of insulin resistance, statin, fibrates, block cholestorol absorption, niacin, omega 3 fatty acids.
Term
whar did Haart do for those with HIV
Definition
CD4counts increased plasma viral load decreased and life expentancy increased
Term
oppurtunistic diesase result in
Definition
reduction in food intake episodic wasting and activation of CD4 cells
Term
what can prevent or delay weight loss and nutritional decline and disease progression
Definition
prophylaxi and early treatment
Term
principle goal of nutrition support for HIV patients
Definition
maintance of body weight
Term
what does weight loss mean and what does it imply 
Definition
means that body weight loss and associated micornutrient loss may impair the immune system and hasten the CD4 count and associated immune deficiency
Term
Treatment of prevention of wasting
Definition
appetite stimulants, anti-catabolic and anabolic medication and hormone replacement therapies
Term
what are some of the herbal therapies 
Definition

garlic, st johns, ginko biloba.

possible interactions with medication 

toxicity issues

Term
what are some non nutrient therapies
Definition
androgens, appetite stimulants, exercise, growth hormone, insulin sensitizing agents
Term
how does HIV cause weight loss
Definition
decreased food intake, impaired nutrient absorption, metabolic alterations
Term
why is there food intake decrease in HIV patients
Definition
oppurtunisitc infections, oral tenderness and lesions, lack of appetite because of infection
Term
what are some of the metabolic alteration
Definition

high REE because of infectino

high protien turnover

chanfe in body composition

acute phase protiens and oxidative stress

Term
what will HAART do for those with out oppurtunistic infections that are weight stable
Definition
decrease REE
Term
What are some factors of assessing HIV infection
Definition
dietary evaluation, physical assessments, biochemical assesment, medical history
Term
how often should MNT encounter happen
Definition

1-2 MNT encounter/yr with HIV (asymptomatic)

2-6 MNT encounter a yr with symptoms

Term
Goals of MNT and optimal outcome for individuals with HIV/AIDS
Definition
prevention of nutritional compromise, restoration of nutrtional well-being, support for overall health care plan
Term
outcomes of MNT
Definition
improved knowledge therapy adherance and management od disease and co-morbidities, improved nutritional status, support for physical and psycosocial economic well being as related to food and nutrition
