Comparison of HRM scores from recently infected individuals from the HIVNET 001 cohort and the EXPLORE cohort*.

*Abbreviations: HRM: high resolution melting. CI: confidence intervals.aSee Figure 1.bHRM scores were obtained for samples collected from adults with recent HIV infection. Samples from the HIVNET 001 cohort were obtained from women and from men who likely acquired HIV through intravenous drug use. Samples from the EXPLORE cohort were obtained from men who likely acquired HIV infection through sexual exposure with other men. The median number of days between collection of the sample used for testing and the individual's last negative HIV tests was 165 days (range: 49–216) for the HIVNET 001 cohort and 189 days (range: 14–540) for the EXPLORE cohort. Median HRM scores and the first and third quartile HRM scores (in parentheses) are shown.cWilcoxon Rank sum test.
