We investigated the distribution of type VI collagen in 36 cases of routinely fixed and paraffin-embedded gynecomastia using an immunoperoxidase method for light microscopic visualization. Four samples of normal male mammary gland tissue were also included as controls. A protease predigestion was
OBJECTIVE
To report four cases of HIV-associated gynecomastia diagnosed during treatment with nucleoside analogs with or without protease inhibitors.
METHODS
Four HIV-infected patients developed gynecomastia while taking two nucleoside analogs (stavudine combined with lamivudine in 3 patients,
To identify HIV-associated episodes of gynecomastia occurred during antiretroviral therapy in a cohort of around 1,000 patients, and to investigate potential correlations with demographic and epidemiological variables, clinical-laboratory markers of HIV disease, metabolic disturbances, and
BACKGROUND
Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are antiretroviral drugs often used in the first-line treatment regimen of HIV1 infection worldwide. We report a case of successive gynecomastia and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) respectively induced by efavirenz and nevirapine in
Drugs account for about 20% of gynecomastia cases in men. As a number of factors can alter the estrogen:androgen ratio, several pathophysiologic mechanisms are associated with drugs causing this disorder. Antiandrogens, protease inhibitors, and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors are the
Breast enlargement, a condition that was rarely reported in the era before highly active antiretroviral therapy, is emerging as a problem in the treatment of male human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. Evaluation of this condition must distinguish between gynecomastia (proliferation
An open-label, observational, prospective 18-month survey was conducted to compare the efficacy and tolerability of the 2 available nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) in all possible indications of current clinical practice. A broad range of clinical and laboratory variables
OBJECTIVE
Highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART), including protease inhibitors (PI) have led to dramatic improvements in the quality and quantity of life in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). However, a significant number of AIDS patients on HAART develop characteristic
