چکیده
Methods 106 patients were studied in 4 groups: 39 HIV/TB coinfected individuals (HIV+/TB+), 25 patients with HIV infection, 17 HIV-negative patients with active pulmonary TB (HIV-/TB+) and 25 healthy controls. Measures of T-cells and viral load were at baseline and after initiation of HAART and/or antitubercular therapy (4 and 12 weeks) for potential immune correlates of disease progression and prognosis. Definition immune indicators were spent by flow cytometry (BD Biosciences, USA).

متن کاملNo Role of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2) Infection on HIV Progression in Naïve HIV Patients
Background: Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a common infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients and may accelerate HIV progression by rising HIV viral load and decreasing CD4 count. However, the available data regarding the influence of HSV-2 seropositivity on HIV progression in HIV individuals are inconclusive. Therefore, we aimed to determine HSV-2 seroprevalence in na&iu...
