Physics of a rapid CD4 lymphocyte count with colloidal gold.
The inherent surface charges and small diameters that confer colloidal stability to gold particle conjugates (immunogold) are detrimental to rapid cell surface labeling and distinct cluster definition in flow cytometric light scatter assays. Although the inherent immunogold surface charge prevents self aggregation when stored in liquid suspension, it also slows binding to cells to timeframes of...
متن کامل[Dermatological disease among HIV-infected patients with CD4-lymphocyte count].
OBJECTIVE To correlate the prevalence of dermatological diseases among HIV-infected patient with CD4-lymphocyte count. METHODS A case series study was carried out in the region of Caxias do Sul, state of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. Data was collected by reviewing the records of HIV-infected patients admitted to a public hospital (198 patients from March 1998 to June 2002) or seen at the ...
متن کاملRapid declines in total lymphocyte count and hemoglobin in HIV infection begin at CD4 lymphocyte counts that justify antiretroviral therapy.
We investigated whether the onset of rapid declines in total lymphocyte counts and hemoglobin levels might be useful for staging HIV disease and initiating antiretroviral therapy. Using data from the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study, we found that accelerated declines in both markers generally precede AIDS by 1.2 years and occur when the CD4 lymphocyte counts fall below 350 cells/mm. These markers...
متن کاملcorrelation between total lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, hematocrit and cd4 count in hiv/aids patients
lymphocyte cd4 + count, a standard laboratory test for staging of hiv infection, is expensive and unavailable in resource-restricted countries. total lymphocyte count (tlc) and hemoglobin (hb) are recommended as simple & inexpensive surrogates. the aim of this study was to assess the correlation, sensitivity and predictive power of these parameters as substitutes for cd 4 count. one hundred hiv...
متن کاملPredicting CD4 count using total lymphocyte count: a sustainable tool for clinical decisions during HAART use.
Understanding the total lymphocyte count (TLC)-CD4 count relationship could aide design predictive instruments for making clinical decisions during antiretroviral therapy, especially in underserved resource-poor settings. We performed multiple regression analyses to assess the prediction of CD4 count using TLC on 771 participants with 4,836 visits. In linear and logistic regression TLC, hemoglo...
