title: Effect of HAART on SEN virus infected HIV positive patients.
abstract: Since it has been demonstrated that concomitant infections could influence the outcome of antiviral treatment, we investigated whether the presence of SENV infection may interfere with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in HIV+ coinfected patients. In spite of persistent fluctuations in SENV-A positivity we could not find any correlation between SENV-DNA and the immunological and virologic parameters found in the patients, suggesting SENV has no apparent clinical relevance during highly active antiretroviral therapy.
