title: [Immunologic evaluation of 246 HIV patients].
abstract: The authors report the results of the immunological studies carried out on 246 individuals infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in order to compare these data with those obtained in a previous study. They demonstrate an appreciable increase in the number of women with HIV infection and the change of the major cause of infection, in men as well as in women, from transfusions to heterosexual relations with promiscuous and/or bisexual men. They emphasize the danger of HIV infection in pregnant women because of the possibility of infection in their children.
