DELAYED RECOGNITION OF HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS INFECTION IN PREADOLESCENT CHILDREN

[摘要] The incubation period for perinatally or neonatally acquired HIV-1 infection in children may be quite variable. This study demonstrated how a prolonged disease-free state and underlying immune abnormalities may exist in older children with HIV-1 infection. Physicians caring for children must have a heightened awareness that HIV-1 infection may appear in the older child.
