HIV positive patients who take combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) to combat HIV infection could see the numbers of CD4 cells in their immune system rise to concentrations found in HIV negative ...

Treatment interruptions in patients with prolonged immunologic and virologic responses to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) have been advocated in many circles, especially if the CD4+ count ...

The drug had minimal effect on the low CD4-cell counts of immunologic nonresponders. Most HIV-infected patients with adequate virologic suppression on antiretroviral therapy (ART) will eventually ...

HIV-1-positive subjects were recruited for this study if they had documented HIV-1 seroreactivity and a definite history of either no HAART or known periods of an effective HAART regimen with ...

Background. It has been suggested that routine CD4 cell count monitoring in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–monoinfected patients with suppressed viral loads and CD4 cell counts >300 cell/μL could ...

The authors compared the CD4+ T-cell counts and HIV-1 RNA viral loads of 383 patients who were either mono-infected with HIV or co-infected with HTLV-1/HIV. They confirmed that co-infected patients ...

For adults infected with HIV in Thailand a monitoring strategy based on CD4 count (a type of white blood cell) is non-inferior to the recommended monitoring strategy measuring the amount of HIV virus ...

Background. Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) reactivations are associated with increased HIV load, but whether HSV-2 coinfection accelerates HIV disease is unclear. We compared rates of CD4 count ...

Recent research on cytomegalovirus retinitis conducted during the era of highly active antiretroviral therapy indicates that CD4 cell count may not be the most accurate predictor of CMV retinitis ...

Implementation of electronic patient-reported outcomes for symptom monitoring in a large multi-site community oncology practice. A multicenter analysis of the outcome of cancer patients with ...

In the first study, researchers evaluated the relationship between timing of ART and the recovery of CD4 counts. “This study identifies a narrow ‘restorative time window’ of approximately 4 months ...
