- Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies
- Healthy HIV negative individual
- Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
- Immunological Responder (IR) HIV infected individual
- Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
- Immunological Responder HIV infected individual(IR), were defined as patients whose CD4+ T-cell counts/μl equal or is more than 500 or less than 200 after 2 years of receiving complete viral suppression therapy respectively. All HIV-positive subjects were on two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) + nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) or the protease inhibitor-based therapy: Zidovudine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate (AZT/TDF) + Lamivudine (3TC) + Efavirenz (EFV) or Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r).
