About This Issue
Our Spring 1999 issue of ACRIA Update focuses on reports from the Sixth Retrovirus Conference in Chicago this past February-March, one of the most important annual conferences for the
presentation of research related to antiretroviral therapy. Frequent CRIA Update contributor Tim
Horn heads up this issue with his look at updates in protease-sparing therapies. Carlos Arboleda
and Jill Cadman weigh in with their report on the newest developments on HIV resistance tests.
Dr. Shaffik Essajee, a pediatric AIDS doctor at Bellevue Hospital, reports on the latest findings
around vertical transmission, and Richard Jeffreys does the same for immune-based therapies. And
outgoing CRIA medical director Dr. Marshall Glesby files updates on fat redistribution and
metabolic complications, and on intermittent HIV therapy.
We hope you find these updates as enlightening and hopeful as we did...and happy spring!
