Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: HIV-2 is endemic in West Africa and is characterized by lower transmissibility because of lower viral load, and HIV-2-infected persons usually have a slower progression to AIDS. The mechanisms behind the slower disease progression are unknown. The main objective was to identify specific HLA class I and II alleles that may influence the disease progression of HIV-2 infection. DESIGN: Cohort follow-up...
