Effects of virologic rebound on CD4 cell counts.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A retrospective study was conducted to assess the effects of various degrees of virologic rebound on CD4 cell counts over time in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients. We found that (1) the higher the degree of virologic rebound, the more rapid the decrease in CD4 cell counts over time, and (2) the magnitude of the virologic rebound was inversely correlated with the CD4 cell counts at the time of rebound.

Baseline CD4 cell counts and outcomes among adult treatment naive HIV patients after taking fixed dose combination GPO-VIR-S and GPO-VIR-Z in Thailand.
A retrospective study was conducted by reviewing 459 medical records of adult treatment naive HIV patients who received a fixed dose combination of GPO-VIR-S (stavudine, lamivudine and nevirapine) or GPO-VIR-Z (zidovudine, lamivudine and nevirapine) at Ramathibodi Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand during 2002-2009 following Thai National Treatment Guideline for adults with HIV. The aim of this stud...
متن کاملThe relationship between virologic and immunologic responses in AIDS clinical research using mixed-effects varying-coefficient models with measurement error.
In this article we study the relationship between virologic and immunologic responses in AIDS clinical trials. Since plasma HIV RNA copies (viral load) and CD4+ cell counts are crucial virologic and immunologic markers for HIV infection, it is important to study their relationship during HIV/AIDS treatment. We propose a mixed-effects varying-coefficient model based on an exploratory analysis of...
متن کاملA Paradigm Shift to Prevent HIV Drug Resistance
Perspective S tandard care for HIV antiretroviral treatment in resource-rich regions of the world includes HIV RNA monitoring every three to four months for viral rebound (i.e., an increase in HIV RNA to detectable levels following suppression). Viral rebound confi rmed by two HIV RNA determinations prompts adherence counseling, and a change in regimen based on prior antiretroviral treatment an...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcomes on Antiretroviral Therapy in a Large Scale-Up Program in Nigeria
BACKGROUND While there has been a rapid global scale-up of antiretroviral therapy programs over the past decade, there are limited data on long-term outcomes from large cohorts in resource-constrained settings. Our objective in this evaluation was to measure multiple outcomes during first-line antiretroviral therapy in a large treatment program in Nigeria. METHODS We conducted a retrospective...

We investigated the independent effects of HIV-1 "target not detected" measurements versus those that were detectable but below the limit of quantification by Taqman RT-PCR assay on subsequent viral rebound as there are conflicting data regarding the clinical implications of arbitrary or isolated low-level viremia. Cox proportional hazard regression modeling was used to investigate the independ...
