AB  - Essentials  of  DiagnosisThe  diagnosis  of  human  immunodeficiency  virus  (HIV)  is  confirmed  using  a  combination  of  a  combined  antigen/antibody  immunoassay  and  an  HIV  viral  load  test.A  positive  virologic  test  indicates  HIV  infection.  Early  disease  is  suggested  by  a  negative  immunoassay  in  the  presence  of  viremia.HIV  infection  is  associated  with  a  wide  range  of  rheumatic  syndromes.  These  can  occur  at  any  stage  of  the  disease.Rheumatic  conditions  that  have  been  described  in  association  with  HIV  include  HIV-associated  arthropathy,  seronegative  spondyloarthropathies,  connective  tissue  diseases,  vasculitides,  septic  arthritis,  and  pyomyositis.
