HIV infection produces a spectrum of illness from totally asymptomatic infection to AIDS. In between these two extremes, infected persons may manifest a variety of signs and symptoms. These include an acute infectious mononucleosis-like illness, progressive generalised lymphadenopathy, and numerous cutaneous and oral lesions. Whilst most of these conditions are not pathognomonic for HIV infection, certain features may indicate the possibility of an underlying HIV infection. Clinicians should be aware of these tell-tale signs.
艾滋病毒感染会引发一系列疾病,从完全无症状感染到艾滋病。在这两个极端情况之间,感染者可能会出现各种体征和症状。这些包括急性传染性单核细胞增多症样疾病、进行性全身性淋巴结病,以及众多皮肤和口腔病变。虽然这些病症大多数并非艾滋病毒感染所特有,但某些特征可能表明存在潜在的艾滋病毒感染。临床医生应了解这些迹象。
