The spectrum of HIV-related disease in rural Central Thailand.

To determine the spectrum of HIV-related illnesses presenting to a rural primary and secondary healthcare facility in Central Thailand, a cross-sectional study was conducted. Routinely collected data were extracted from outpatient medical notes for all adult HIV-infected new attenders of the Manorom Christian Hospital Infectious Disease Clinic. Data concerning inpatient admissions of HIV-infected individuals were collected from ward admission books and discharge summaries.
