Üks Life4me+ peamiseid eesmärke on uute HIVi- ja muude sugulisel teel levivate nakkuste juhtumite, nagu ka C-hepatiiti ja tuberkuloosi nakatumise ennetamine.

Nutirakendus aitab luua kontakti arstide ja HIV positiivsete inimeste vahel. Nutirakendus aitab mugavalt organiseerida ravimite võtmise aegu, seadistada ainult Teile arusaadavad ja personaalseid meeldetuletusi, võimaldab saada arstilt tagasisidet ning panna aega vastuvõtule või analüüsidele.

HPV Causes Pre-Cancerous Cervical Lesion More Often By HIV-positive Women

HPV Causes Pre-Cancerous Cervical Lesion More Often By HIV-positive Women - pilt 1

American Association for Cancer Research studied nearly 1400 Senegalese women, following them from 1994 to 2010 year. Senegal was selected as a place of the study, because HIV is a kind of endemic disease in that region.

Following the results of the study, we can see that HIV-positive women had high rates of HPV acquirement, and lower rates of HPV infection treatment. “HPV goes unchecked, replicating quickly and developing abnormal lesions which can progress to cancer." - commented the main author of the research. He explains,  that HIV damages the immune system. The results of adherence to pre-cancerous cervical lesion predictably will be the same in the majority of countries with high HIV rates. Specialists note that HPV vaccination of women with a high risk of HIV infection is an important preventive measure.

Summary of the study states that HPV infection was more likely to develop into cervical pre-cancer in women living with human immunodeficiency virus, thus the development of cervical cancer prevention is quite important, especially in areas where HIV appears as an endemic disease.
