Higher CD4+T Cell Counts Associated with Low ViralpolReplication Capacity among Treatment‐Naive Adults in Early HIV‐1 Infection
25 Jun 2004
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Infection with primary drug-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) has been associated with higher CD4(+) T cell counts in drug-naive patients, suggesting that altered viral pol replication capacity (RC) associated with drug resistance diminishes immune injury in vivo, independent of exposure to drugs. METHODS: Virus replication over a single cycle was measured by use of a viral test...
