T cell subsets in HIV infected patients after successful combination antiretroviral therapy: impact on survival after 12 years.
<h4>Objectives</h4>Immune activation is decreased by combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) in patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), but residual activation remains and has been proposed as a cause of premature aging and death, but data are lacking. We analyzed th...
