Index to Volume 1 of AIDS Care

In the past year AIDS Care has provided its readers -- 28,862 office-based clinicians, other healthcare providers, AIDS service organizations, people living with HIV, and their care partners -- with 126 pages of relevant, reliable, readable information on all aspects of advanced HIV infection and related quality-of-life issues.

The dissemination of this information -- at no charge to recipients -- has been made possible by unrestricted educational grants from the sponsors listed below. Their continuing support in 1998 will enable us to continue to provide clear, concise, up-to-the-minute advice to our rapidly growing readership. As Dr. Paul A. Volberding, Editor-in-Chief of AIDS Care, observed in our first issue: "Successful long-term care of patients with HIV infection requires full cooperation and open communication, conscientiousness and compassion -- on all sides." Our editorial objective is to enhance communication, and thereby promote fuller partnership.

Over the past year AIDS Care has published articles, editorials, late-breaking news items, and brief commentaries on a wide range of subjects, from the management of pain in end-stage HIV disease to the diagnosis and treatment of multidrug-resistant TB. We devoted one entire issue to sex in the age of AIDS, and we published the testimony of the true experts on HIV infection -- people living with AIDS and their primary care-providers.

In response to overwhelming demand from our readers, AIDS service organizations, and other interested parties, we reprinted and distributed 7,500 copies of "Mastering Combination Therapy," a Pull Out and Save feature that appeared in the April issue of AIDS Care. At her specific request, we added President Clinton's new AIDS czar -- and all the members of the President's AIDS Advisory Council -- to our mailing list.

We will continue to provide readable, relevant, reliable information to our readers in the coming year -- to enable them to cope with the challenge of living with HIV, to keep them abreast of new developments in the diagnosis and treatment of HIV infection and AIDS-related opportunistic infections, and to help them derive real quality from their lives.

The publication of AIDS Care is supported by unrestricted educational grants from: Glaxo Wellcome Bristol-Myers Squibb Merck

The following index is arranged alphabetically by article title and by subject matter. Page numbers are provided for all entries except those that come from the unpaginated Pull Out and Save inserts that appear in every issue of AIDS Care.
