Abstract: 
  • Combination Antiretroviral Therapy (cART) aims to inhibit viral replication, delay immunodeficiency progression and improve survival in AIDS patients. The objective of this study was to compare two different schemes of cART, based on plasma viral load (VL) and CD4+ T lymphocyte count, during 48 weeks of treatment. For this purpose, 472 medical charts of a Specialized Outpatient Service were reviewed from 1998 to 2005. Out of these, 58 AIDS patients who had received a triple drug scheme as the initial treatment were included in the study and two groups were formed: Group 1 (G1): 47 individuals treated with two nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) and one non-nucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitor; Group 2 (G2): 11 patients treated with two NRTI and one protease inhibitor. In G1 and G2, 53.2% and 81.8% respectively were patients with an AIDS-defining disease. The T CD4+ lymphocyte count increased progressively up until the 24th week of treatment in all patients, while VL became undetectable in 68.1% of G1 and in 63.6% of G2. The study concluded that the evolutions of laboratory tests were similar in the two treatment groups and that both presented a favorable clinical evolution.
  • A terapia antirretroviral na aids visa inibir a replicação viral, retardar a progressão da imunodeficiência e melhorar a sobrevida do paciente. O objetivo do estudo foi comparar dois esquemas de tratamentos antirretrovirais, quanto à carga viral plasmática (CV) e contagem de linfócitos T CD4+, durante 48 semanas de tratamento, pela revisão de 472 prontuários no período de 1998 a 2005, em um Serviço de Ambulatórios Especializados. Foram incluídos para o estudo 58 pacientes que receberam esquema tríplice como terapêutica inicial, os quais formaram dois grupos: Grupo 1 (G1): 47 indivíduos em tratamento com dois inibidores de transcriptase reversa análogos de nucleosídeos (ITRN) e um inibidor de transcriptase reversa não análogo de nucleosídeo; Grupo 2 (G2): 11 pacientes em tratamento com dois ITRN e um inibidor de protease. Entre os pacientes de G1 e G2, 53.2% e 81.8%, respectivamente, foram classificados como portadores de aids com doença definidora. A contagem de linfócitos T CD4+ aumentou progressivamente até a 24ª semana de tratamento, em todos os doentes e, a CV tornou-se indetectável em 68,1% dos casos de G1 e em 63,6%, do G2. O estudo concluiu que, em ambos os grupos de tratamento, houve evolução laboratorial semelhante e essa observação foi compatível com evolução clínica favorável dos pacientes estudados.
