To determine the incidence and prognostic significance of thrombocytopenia among hemophiliacs, we analyzed clinical and hematologic data from the Multicenter Hemophilia Cohort study. Nineteen percent of HIV-infected subjects had thrombocytopenia (platelet count of <100,000/mm 3 ) noted at least once

SV40 DNA has recently been found associated with several types of human tumors, suggesting that the virus is present in humans. We examined sera from patients infected with human
An enzyme immunoassay (EIA) has been developed which detects antigen(s) (Ag) of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the serum of patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), AIDS-related complex (ARC), and patients at high risk for HIV infection. The test has a sensitivity of a
