title: Depression often undertreated in HIV/AIDS patients, psychiatrist warns.
abstract: The clinic for HIV-related concerns at Toronto's Mount Sinai Hospital marked its 10th anniversary with the 2nd Dr. Stephen Woo Memorials Lecture, and Cornell University psychiatrist John Markowitz used the opportunity to report that depression tends to be undertreated in patients with HIV/AIDS. However, symptoms often melt away with proper treatment. He said depression used to be considered a logical and inevitable consequence of the virus, but these views have been changing.
