phosphorylcholine and AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections

phosphorylcholine has been researched along with AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections in 6 studies

Phosphorylcholine: Calcium and magnesium salts used therapeutically in hepatobiliary dysfunction.
phosphocholine : The phosphate of choline; and the parent compound of the phosphocholine family.

AIDS-Related Opportunistic Infections: Opportunistic infections found in patients who test positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The most common include PNEUMOCYSTIS PNEUMONIA, Kaposi's sarcoma, cryptosporidiosis, herpes simplex, toxoplasmosis, cryptococcosis, and infections with Mycobacterium avium complex, Microsporidium, and Cytomegalovirus.

"There is still no effective treatment for cryptosporidiosis even though the disease has a significant impact on HIV-infected adults and children."6.76In a trial of the use of miltefosine to treat HIV-related cryptosporidiosis in Zambian adults, extreme metabolic disturbances contribute to high mortality. ( Katubulushi, M; Kelly, P; Obwaller, A; Sianongo, S; Sinkala, E, 2011)
