Absolute lymphocyte count as a predictor of CD4+ Tcell count in children with HIV infection

International Journal of Research Publications, 2021
Background: TCD4+ cells are target of HIV and an important parameter to determine immunodeficiency status. This laboratory test can only in limited centres, expensive and cannot be done in emergency unit. The absolute lymphocytes count can be alternative test that acceptable and has diagnostic value.

Possible Use of Absolute Lymphocyte Count as Surrogate for CD4+ Cells Count in Monitoring Response to Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy in Sokoto.

Sokoto Journal of Medical Laboratory Science, 2016
Few laboratories in resource-constrained countries can afford to perform laboratory-monitoring tests required for the management of HIV therapy. The initiation of an antiretroviral therapy is based on CD4+ count less than 350 cells/mm3according to the ...

Bridged treatment comparisons: an illustrative application in HIV treatment [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Comparisons of treatments, interventions, or exposures are of central interest in epidemiology, but direct comparisons are not always possible due to practical or ethical reasons. Here, we detail a fusion approach to compare treatments across studies. The motivating example entails comparing the risk of the composite outcome of death, AIDS, or greater ...

Correlation between Total Lymphocyte Count, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit and CD4 Count in HIV/AIDS Patients [PDF]

Acta Medica Iranica, 2009
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.

Phase 1 Trial of Vaccination with Autologous Tumor Cells and Antisense Directed Against the Insulin Growth Factor Type 1 Receptor (IGF-1R AS ODN) in Patients with Recurrent Glioblastoma [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Extending a previous Phase I study, we report the results of a second Phase I autologous tumor cell vaccination trial for patients with recurrent glioblastomas (IND 14379-101, NCT01550523). Methods: Following surgery, subjects were treated by

HIV, TB and ART: the CD4 enigma [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
The concentration of CD4 T-lymphocytes (CD4 count), in a person's plasma is widely used to decide when to start HIV-positive people on anti-retroviral therapy (ART) and to predict the impact of ART on the future course of HIV and tuberculosis (TB). However, CD4 cell-counts vary widely within and among populations and depend on many factors besides HIV ...

Artificial Intelligence Enabled Reagent-free Imaging Hematology Analyzer [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Leukocyte differential test is a widely performed clinical procedure for screening infectious diseases. Existing hematology analyzers require labor-intensive work and a panel of expensive reagents. Here we report an artificial-intelligence enabled reagent-free imaging hematology analyzer (AIRFIHA) modality that can accurately classify subpopulations of

Pre-HAART CD4+ T-lymphocytes as biomarkers of post-HAART immune recovery in HIV-infected children with or without TB co-infection

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Infection with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) dramatically increases the risk of developing active tuberculosis (TB). Several studies have indicated that co-infection with TB increases the risk of HIV progression and death. Sub-Saharan
