Association between CD4 T cell counts and the immune status among adult critically ill HIV-negative patients in intensive care units in Uganda

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) T cells play a central role in regulation of adaptive T cell-mediated immune responses. Low CD4 T cell counts are not routinely reported as a marker of immune deficiency among HIV-negative individuals, as is the norm among their HIV positive counterparts.
