Abstract (sommario):
This thesis is concerned with AIDS cultural activism. Specifically, it examines artistic responses to the medical/scientific image of HIV that circulates widely in the mainstream press. Examples of AIDS science reporting that focus on the medical/scientific image of HIV are selected from popular American news journals. It is argued that science and journalism are different and mutually dependent domains of knowledge, neither of which can be examined without the other. AIDS activist art engages with the relationship between science and the media and offers alternatives to the authority offered

This dissertation breaks new ground. It examines the perceptions of older adults towards AIDS prevention. Using the National Health Interview Survey, 1988: AIDS Knowledge and Attitudes Supplement, a modified Health Belief Model is developed. Despite the low number of older adults 55+ with AIDS, some extenuating circumstances increase their risk of AIDS contraction. Older adults have lower levels of knowledge about AIDS, weaker immune systems and receive more blood transfusions. Societal influences include educational neglect at the hands of physicians, healthcare workers and social service per

Abstract (sommario):
[Truncated abstract] HIV infection compromises the ability of the host to mount effective immune responses. In untreated HIV disease, immune activation drives high rates of cell turnover and apoptosis, ultimately leading to abnormal and dysregulated cellular function. Immune activation may also induce the expansion of CD4+ regulatory T (Treg) cell populations capable of suppressing anti-HIV responses. Treatment with antiretroviral therapy (ART) allows the recovery of CD4+ T cell numbers in most patients. Persistent deficiencies in the number and function of CD4+ T cells seen in a proportion of

<p>The effects of the spread of HIV/AIDS place a great burden on women and children, who will probably suffer most in terms of social and economic deprivation. Since HIV/AIDS is linked to social taboos such as sexuality, drug use and death, there are enormous levels of ignorance, denial, fear and intolerance in most communities. These prejudices lead to the stigmatisation and discrimination of people who are living with HIV/AIDS. Moreover the illness, as it is sexually transmitted, has been conflated with sexual excess, lack of morals, and those already stigmatised such as sex workers with ass

Through these masquerades, they enhance the physicality of their bodies so as to conform to Western cultural perceptions of masculine and healthy body ideals and thus avoid stigma that would otherwise be placed on them.

Abstract (sommario):
Jusqu'en art, la crise du sida est un tournant majeur de l'histoire contemporaine. Cette étude couvre la période allant de ses origines à la révolution thérapeutique (trithérapies) de la fin des années 1990, et s'intéresse à son impact sur les artistes américains et européens et leurs œuvres. Ceux-ci, sur la question, ont trop rarement été regardés ensemble, et pourtant: de Cindy Sherman à Derek Jarman, de Niki de Saint Phalle à Jeff Kaons, de Gilbert &amp; George à Jenny Holzer, de Michel Journiac à David Wojnarowicz, on repère le même saisissement dans les représentations, qui ne pouvaient a

Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigates how the new technology of treatment, i.e. antiretroviral therapy (ART), is incorporated into public health care institutions. The success of this technology ideally relies on the notion of the ‘responsibilised’ patient as one who, simply put, consistently maintains the level of ARV-adherence necessary to suppress the viral load and to avoid drug resistance. The stringent management and continual monitoring of treatment adherence necessary to achieve these outcomes lie beyond the direct control of the

Abstract (sommario):
Vulnerable populations comprise a growing number of people living with HIV/AIDS and are at increased risk for poorer health outcomes. The purpose of this research was to approximate the effect of the Ryan White CARE Act on the health status of people living with HIV/AIDS who were receiving medical care in the United States. The vulnerable populations model was utilized to identify appropriate variables for analysis as well as to provide a sequencing for the testing of models. Data analyzed in this study came from the 1996 Baseline Survey of the HIV Cost and Services Utilization Study (HCSUS),

Abstract (sommario):
La crise du sida n'est pas derrière nous, même si l'incendie semble éteint, les cendres elles, restent. Premièrement, parce que l'épidémie n'est nullement endiguée, mais aussi parce que nous continuons d'être hantés par les représentations, les discours, les constructions et les significations que cette pandémie transporte avec elle. Le sida est un phénomène complexe, tenter de le comprendre, c'est faire face en premier lieu à des séries de mots, d'images médiatiquement puissantes qui supplantent d'autres réalités. Pour parvenir à percer cette pandémie, il faut pouvoir en étudier tous les aspe
