| Abstract | The emergence of highly active antiretroviral therapy using combinations of reverse transcriptase and protease inhibitors ushered the dawn of a new era in management of human immunodeficiency virus infection. Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome is an adverse consequence of the restoration of pathogen-specific immune responses during the early phase of antiretroviral therapy. Pre-existing subclinical or opportunistic infections become apparent or even 'worse' as host immunological inflammatory responses are 'switched on'. Major reductions in plasma viral load were associated with substantial increases in circulating CD4 T-cell lymphocyte counts and restoration of immune function. The rapid reversal in immune function gives rise to paradoxical therapeutic reaction by rebuilding host immune responses. Herein, a hidden culprit responsible for tuberculosis-associated immune reconstitution characterized by severe hypercalcemia and acute renal failure is reported, illustrating the compounded therapeutic strategy in AIDS patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
