Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To investigate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene encoding interleukin-7 receptor α (IL7RA) as predictors for CD4⁺ T-cell change after initiation of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) in HIV-infected whites. DESIGN: SNPs in IL7RA were determined in the Danish HIV Cohort Study. METHODS: CD4⁺ T-cell changes were estimated 6 months, 1, 2, and 5 years after initiation of cART in...
