Maternal viral load and vertical transmission of HIV-1: an important factor but not the only one

1999-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Objectives: To investigate the association between maternal RNA load, risk of vertical transmission of HIV-1, and other variables. Methods: Plasma or serum samples from mothers of 373 children, enrolled in the prospective European Collaborative Study, were collected around time of delivery, and HIV-RNA quantified using two types of commercial assay. Women and children were followed according to a standard protocol...
