Analyses of association between HIV disease history and Gag-specific CD8 T-cell proliferation in viremic patients.

a Analysis was performed by logistic regression b adjusted for variables included in the model. The following variables with P values < 0.20 in univariate analysis were not included in the model, because of their associations with other independent variables: HIV DNA levels, cumulative viremia over the last 10 and 5 years were associated with current HIV RNA levels; duration for which CD4 T-cell % <15 were associated with age at first HAART c Virions using CCR5 as a coreceptor are referred to as R5 virions, whereas those CXCR4 as a coreceptor and dual-tropic viruses are referred to as X4R5 virions d expressed in years e expressed in log10 copies/ml of plasma f expressed in log10 copies per 106 PBMCs g expressed as a percentage of total CD4 T cells h expressed as a percentage of total CD8 T cells i expressed as a percentage of naive CD4 T cells j expressed in months k expressed as days x log10 HIV-RNA copies/ml of plasma.
