Table 5. Patient Characteristics.
The patient’s HAART status, CD4 count, viral loads, total HIV DNA (RU5/10,000 cells +/− standard error), and the ratio of total DNA to integrated DNA are shown for each patient. Total DNA was measured using the primers and probe described in Figure 1 without the Alu-gag amplification as described in the Methods.
