another sex tutorial - GLOSSARY of HIV & AIDS
Glossary of HIV/AIDS Terms
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

___ This glossary is provided for a better understanding of HIV/AIDS termin\
ology in
current usage. Medical and scientific terminology are based on the Surge\
on General's
Report of AIDS, publications of the Centers for Disease Control and Prev\
ention, the
former Global AIDS Programme of the World Health Organization (now part\
of
U.N.AIDS), AIDS Treatment Data Network, and Harvard's Global Policy on \
AIDS
Coalition. The research literature was also consulted through the intern\
et. This glossary is
up to date; some terms in this field have changed (e.g. ARC; GRID) and\
are no longer
used. For purposes of discussion in this report, the term AIDS is common\
ly used to
include HIV infection and disease and AIDS-related opportunistic infecti\
ons and related-
diseases. HIV/AIDS is also used.

activity before marriage. Not having sexual intercourse is the safest wa\
y to avoid the
sexual transmission of HIV/AIDS, although a majority of young adults and\
teens do not
believe abstinence-only is a realistic option. However, the reality of H\
IV/AIDS is simple:
avoid the exchange of bodily fluids and blood especially.
Abstinence-based: A slightly more open curriculum that stresses abstinence as the
safest way to avoid HIV but allows for some discussion of sex and the et\
hics of sexual
activity.
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS): A progressive weakening of the
immune system accompanied by one or more indicator diseases (opportunis\
tic infections)
-- including Kaposi's sarcoma, invasive cervical cancer, pneumocystis ca\
rinii pneumonia,
and wasting syndrome. In AIDS, common immune system deterioration is mar\
ked by a
depletion of T-helper (T 4/CD4) cells, which help stimulate antibody p\
roduction. AIDS is
commonly thought to be caused by a retrovirus, HIV.
AIDS: is now a commonly-used term for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome and \
also
for HIV/AIDS; WHO uses the term to "denote the entire health problem ass\
ociate with HIV
infection."
American Foundation for AIDS Research (AmFAR): was co-founded in 1985 by Dr.
Mathilde Krim and by Dr. Michael Gottlieb. It remains an influential adv\
ocate for HIV/AIDS
research and programs.
Anal sex: Sexual intercourse when the penis is inserted in the anus. Often used a\
s a
birth control measure by young adults.
Antibiotic: A substance that kills or inhibits the growth of organisms. Once consid\
ered a
magic bullet, antibiotics are now commonly used to combat disease and in\
fection.
Indications are growing that many human viruses and bacteria are becomin\
g resistant to
current antibiotics.
Antibody: Members of a class of proteins known as immunoglobins. Antibodies may t\
ag,
destroy and neutralize bacteria, viruses or other harmful toxins. Antibo\
dies attack infected
cells, making them vulnerable to attack by other elements of the immune \
system.
Antigen: A foreign protein that causes an immune response (the production of an\
tibodies
to fight antigens). Common examples of antigens are the bacteria and vi\
ruses that cause
human disease. The antibody is formed in response to a particular antige\
n unique to that
antigen, reacting with no other.
Antiretroviral: A substance that stops or suppresses the activity of a retrovirus such \
as
HIV. AZT was the first widely used antiretroviral drug and now more comb\
inations are
reaching the market. Antiretrovirals are not a cure but do help manage A\
IDS as a chronic
disease and perhaps helps strengthen a PWA's health.

another sex tutorial - GLOSSARY of HIV & AIDS
Asymptomatic: When there is no visible or noticeable changes in the body; i.e., an HI\
V-
positive person does not show any signs of "AIDS symptoms." Thus, asympt\
omatic
carriers are a threat to their unsuspecting sexual partners.
At risk: Individual behavior that identifies a person who is engaging in behavio\
rs that are
likely to transmit HIV, the AIDS virus. "Groups" per se are not at risk \
-- rather the
commonly-practiced behaviors of their individual members make them more \
susceptible
to be infected.
Autoimmune disease: A disease which arises from and is directed against an
individual's own tissue (a problem with transplants).
AZT: AZT, Retrovir and Zidovudine are the common names for the chemical 3'-
azidothymidine. It was the first drug on the market for AIDS. It was tho\
ught that AZT
might be the cure for AIDS-related diseases but the hopes were dashed
