Changes in B-Cell Counts and Percentages during Primary HIV Infection Associated with Disease Progression in HIV-Infected Men Who Have Sex with Men: A Preliminary Study

Figure 3

Correlation between B-cell counts/percentages and CD4+ T-cell counts/HIV viral loads in HIV-infected individuals. The correlations between the baseline B-cell counts and CD4+ T-cell counts (a) at the baseline and (e) after 12 months. The correlations between the baseline percentages of B cells and CD4+ T-cell counts (b) at the baseline and (f) after 12 months. The correlations between the baseline B-cell counts and HIV viral loads (c) at the baseline and (g) after 12 months. The correlations between the baseline percentages of B cells and HIV viral loads (d) at the baseline and (h) after 12 months. values < 0.05 are considered statistically significant.
