Popis: Background: Whether varying CD8 counts influence the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reservoir and CD4 restoration in patients with CD4 counts ≥ 500 cells/μL after long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) remains unknown. In this study, we analyzed relationships between CD8 levels and viral reservoir decay or CD4 recovery in immune restored patients on long-term ART.Methods: Chronic HIV-infected patients who received 5 years of ART with CD4 counts ≥ 500 cells/μL were grouped according to CD8 counts: CD8
