title: HIV-1 infection. Diagnosis and management.
abstract: This article discusses the epidemiology, diagnostic methods, prevention of complications, and medical management of HIV-1 infection. Many different therapeutic strategies for HIV-1 infection are being evaluated, but until the immune suppression is eradicated, presumably through more effective antiviral therapy, complications of AIDS and HIV-1 infection will continue to be encountered.
