wasting syndrome
síndrome de emaciação


Explanation:
"A síndrome de emaciação da AIDS é definido como uma perda pelo menos de 10% do peso corporal e é muitas vezes acompanhada de febre, fraqueza crônica e diarréia.
Os tratamentos agressivos reduziram o número de casos de síndrome de emaciação, mas ainda afetam muitas pessoas com AIDS."

WHAT IS AIDS WASTING?
AIDS wasting is the involuntary loss of more than 10% of body weight, plus more than 30 days of either diarrhea, or weakness and fever. Wasting is linked to disease progression and death. Losing just 5% of body weight can have the same negative effects.Although the incidence of wasting syndrome has decreased dramatically since 1996, wasting is still a problem for people with AIDS, even people whose HIV is controlled by medications.
