| Popis: | Background. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is caused by the Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and characterized by a progressive decrease in the immune system function which eventually leads to the development of opportunistic infections and other complications. In order to monitor the disease progression the CD4 examination and additional Complete Blood Count (CBC) were commonly used.Objectives. To determine the correlation of total lymphocyte count, hemoglobin level, lymphocyte/leukocyte ratio (LLR) and lymphocyte/neutrophil ratio (LNR) to CD4 levels in patients with HIV infection.Methods. This a retrospective cross-sectional analytic study conducted from July to August 2017. The total lymphocyte count, hemoglobin level, lymphocyte/leukocyte ratio (LLR) and lymphocyte/neutrophil ratio (LNR) and CD4 level were measured in the study. The data normality and the correlation were analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and the Pearson Correlation test, respectively, performed in SPSS version 14. The p-value less than 0.05 was considered significant for the results.Results. A total of 60 samples conducted CD4 and complete blood counts (CBC) examinations during the period July-August 2017. The mean CD4 levels were 341.73 ± 243.48 cells/µL, the total leukocyte count was 6.98 ± 2.93 x 103/µL, the total lymphocyte count was 2.09 ± 0.87 x 103/µL, hemoglobin level 13.38 ± 2.09 g/dL, lymphocyte/leukocyte ratio (LLR) 0.31 ± 0.11, lymphocyte/neutrophil ratio (LNR) 0.67 ± 0.40. Statistical analysis showed that data is normally distributed. Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between CD4 levels with total lymphocytes counts, hemoglobin levels, RLL, RLN with correlation coefficients of 0.571 (p = 0.000), 0.324 (p = 0.012), 0.509 (p = 0.000), 0.463 (p = 0.006), respectively. There was no significant correlation between CD4 levels and total leukocytes with a correlation coefficient of 0.171 (p = 0.19).Conclusion. There is a positive correlation between CD4 levels and total lymphocytes, hemoglobin levels, RLL and RLN in patients with HIV at Sanglah Hospital. |
