Different patterns of HIV-1 DNA after therapy discontinuation [PDF]
Background: By persisting in infected cells for a long period of time, proviral HIV-1 DNA can represent an alternative viral marker to RNA viral load during the follow-up of HIV-1 infected individuals.

Viral loads in clinical specimens and SARS manifestations. [PDF]
1. A high viral load in nasopharyngeal aspirate (with or without a high viral load in serum) is a useful prognostic indicator of respiratory failure or mortality. The presence of viral RNA in multiple body sites is also indicative of poor prognosis.

Viral genetic variation accounts for a third of variability in HIV-1 set-point viral load in Europe [PDF]
HIV-1 set-point viral load—the approximately stable value of viraemia in the first years of chronic infection—is a strong predictor of clinical outcome and is highly variable across infected individuals.

The contribution of viral genotype to plasma viral set-point in HIV infection.
Disease progression in HIV-infected individuals varies greatly, and while the environmental and host factors influencing this variation have been widely investigated, the viral contribution to variation in set-point viral load, a predictor of disease ...
