Scholarly Journals On Immunodeficiency

Immunodeficiency disorders cause a total or partial alteration of the immune system. Primary immunodeficiencies are the result of genetic defects, and secondary immunodeficiencies are caused by environmental factors, such as HIV / AIDS or malnutrition. This briefing explains the two different types of immunodeficiencies and how they are currently treated. He also discusses future research needed in this area to develop better curative treatments for these immune disorders.
 Finding the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in breast milk by culture and polymerase chain reaction does not necessarily mean that breastfeeding is a route of transmission, although the proofs from several case reports indicate this direction. We undertook a systematic review of the published studies meeting the criteria which made it possible to determine the quantitative risk of transmission through breastfeeding. Based on four studies in which mothers contracted HIV-1 after birth, the estimated risk of transmission is 29% (95% Cl 16-42%). The study of five analytics has shown that when the mother was infected before birth, the additional risk of transmission through breastfeeding, beyond transmission in utero or during childbirth, is 14% (95% Cl 7-22%). Where there are safe alternatives to breastfeeding, universal screening for pregnant women would advise more infected women not to breastfeed and could therefore reduce the number of vertically infected children. Since breastfeeding protects against infant death from infectious diseases, breastfeeding is still recommended when infectious diseases are a common cause of death in childhood, despite the additional risk of HIV transmission.
