Effect of Coinfection With STDs and of STD Treatment on HIV Shedding in Genital-Tract Secretions

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

Few high-quality studies were found. HIV is detected moderately more frequently in genital secretions of men and women with a STD, and HIV load is substantially increased among men with urethritis. Successful STD treatment reduces both of these parameters, but not to control levels. More high-quality studies are needed to explore this important relationship further.
