Microfluidic Assays for CD4 T Lymphocyte Counting: A Review

Biosensors
CD4 T lymphocytes play a key role in initiating the adaptive immune response, releasing cytokines that mediate numerous signal transduction pathways across the immune system. Therefore, CD4 T cell counts are widely used as an indicator of overall immunological health. HIV, one of the leading causes of death in the developing world, specifically targets

HIV dynamics and natural history studies: Joint modeling with doubly interval-censored event time and infrequent longitudinal data [PDF]

Annals of Applied Statistics 2011, Vol. 5, No. 1, 400-426, 2011
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfection has become one of the most challenging clinical situations to manage in HIV-infected patients. Recently the effect of HCV coinfection on HIV dynamics following initiation of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has drawn considerable attention.

Correlation of Total Lymphocyte Count with CD4 Count in HIV/AIDS Patients

Journal Of Medicine & Health, 2015
HIV infection is a chronic infection of the immune system with a target of CD4 cells. Total lymphocyte count (TLC) can be done in resource-limited areas and are able to be used as a substitute to CD4 count. An increase in CD8 count can disturb the correlation between CD4 and TLC especially during the late clinical stage.Objective of this research is to

Effect of dimethyl fumarate on lymphocyte subsets in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis. [PDF]

, 2020
Background: In patients treated with dimethyl fumarate, absolute lymphocyte count decline typically occurs during the first year and then plateaus; early drops have been associated with the development of severe prolonged lymphopenia.

Comparison of absolute neutrophil to CD4 lymphocyte values as a marker of immunosuppression in cancer patients on cytotoxic chemotherapy [PDF]

, 2015
Background: The absolute neutrophil count (ANC) is currently used to assess immune status of patients on cytotoxic therapy. The CD4 lymphocytes have also been shown to be of importance in protection against opportunistic infections.

Correlation analysis on total lymphocyte count and CD4 count of HIV-infected patients

International Journal of Clinical Practice, 2007
To determine the relationship between CD4 count and other blood indices and to explore the prediction of total lymphocyte count (TLC) for CD4 count in HIV-infected patients.Cross-sectional study was performed for the prediction of TLC and other indices for CD4 count, and historical cohort study was performed for the TLC changes as a surrogate for CD4 ...
