The first test to check for HIV is a screening test. The most common is an immunoassay that checks for antibodies against the HIV virus. Nowadays, is most recommendable not only to have the immunoassay that detects the antibodies but also to perform and antigen assay for protein p24. This protein enables early detection of HIV in comparison to the immunoassays.

elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycemia) lead to spillage of glucose into the urine, hence the term sweet urine.
