Two distinct families of human retroviruses, the human immunodeficiency viruses (HIVs) and
human T‐lymphotropic viruses (HTLVs), cause significant infections worldwide. The viruses …

Human T-cell lymphotropic viruses type 1 and 2 are retroviruses that share the same routes
of transmission as HIV-1. Since these agents are prevalent simultaneously in different parts …

The goal of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes and survival probabilities among
persons coinfected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and human T lymphotropic …

So far, only two retroviruses, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)(type 1 and 2) and human
T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), have been recognized as pathogenic for humans …

Introduction Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 or 2 (HTLV-1/2) co-infection in patients
infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can lead to increased morbidity …

Human T-lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) and HTLV-II have been postulated to accelerate
disease progression in patients coinfected with HIV. However, recent evidence suggests that …

Human T‐cell lymphotropic virus (HTLV) types I and II were the first discovered human
retroviruses. While HTLV‐I has been clearly associated with disease, the health implications …

Important clinical effects of HTLV/HIV co-infection include the higher rates of myelopathy and
other neurological disorders and the poor predicative value of CD4+ cell counts as a …

A 37 year-old man coinfected with HIV-1 and human T-lymphotropic virus type II presumably
through injection drug use had a high CD4+ count and low HIV viral load without anti …

Human T-lymphotropic virus type II (HTLV-II) is a human retrovirus which is endemic in
Amerindian and pygmy tribes. Molecular subtypes show geographic segregation consistent …
