Level of CD8 T Lymphocytes Activation in HIV-Infected Pregnant Women: In the Context of CD38 and HLA-DR Activation Markers

Table 5

Relationship between CD8/38 and the CD4⁺ cell counts (statistical analysis by Pearson correlation (Sig. (2 tailed))).

CD8/38 % (A)	Counts (B)	Nonpregnant		Pregnant
		Correlation coefficient (𝑟)	𝑃 value	Correlation coefficient (𝑟)	𝑃 values
	Absolute CD4	𝑟=−0.478^∗∗	0.003	𝑟=−0.277	0.102
	CD4 %	𝑟=−0.154	0.370	𝑟=−0.162	0.345

A: CD8/38 cellular immune activation markers; B: CD4 cell counts.
**Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (2 tailed).
*Correlation is significant at the 0.05 level (2 tailed).
