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 ...

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 ...

Background. Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-ininfected Ethiopians have lower CD4 T cell counts than do other populations in Africa and industrialized countries. We studied whether this ...

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 ...

HIV viruses infecting T-lymphocytes, computer illustration. The surface of the T-cell has a lumpy appearance with large irregular surface protrusions. Smaller spherical structures on the cell surface ...

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 ...

In patients with rheumatoid arthritis, a repeated decrease of CD4+ T-cell counts was found during the course of multiple cycles of rituximab treatment, according to study results. Researchers from ...
