Mean CD4 cell count changes in patients failing a first-line antiretroviral therapy in resource-limited settings

Abstract

Changes in CD4 cell counts are poorly documented in individuals with low or moderate-level viremia while on antiretroviral treatment (ART) in resource-limited settings. We assessed the impact of on-going HIV-RNA replication on CD4 cell count slopes in patients treated with a first-line combination ART.
