Alterations in children's sub-dominant gut microbiota by HIV infection and anti-retroviral therapy.

<h4>Objective</h4>We investigated the impact of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and anti-retroviral therapy (ART) on the gut microbiota of children.<h4>Design</h4>This cross-sectional study investigated the gut microbiota of children with and without HIV.<h4&g...
