complexIn psychology, a group of ideas and feelings that have become repressed because they are distasteful to the person in whose mind they arose, but are still active in the depths of the person's unconscious mind, continuing to affect his or her life and actions, even though he or she is no longer fully aware of their existence. Typical examples include the Oedipus complex and the inferiority complex. |

| Meningococcemia: an undescribed
cause of community-acquired bacteremia in patients with acquired
immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and AIDS-related complex. The Institute of Medicine (1986) cited a longitudinal
study which compared levels of distress in homosexuals and found that
those who suffered from AIDS-related complex (ARC) had greater
psychological problems. The MeSH headings grew with the terminology of the disease, with
the term AIDs-Related Complex established in 1987, terms for the family
of HIV Infections in 1990, and terms for HIV Antigens, HIV Antibodies,
HIV Envelope Protein GP120 and other concepts now available. |
