Table 4. Mean difference of CD4+/CD8+ ratio in co-infected subjects according to time of HIV infection and HPgV viral load condition.
Conditions | HIV-recent HPgV-negative n = 29 | HIV-late HPgV-negative n = 118 | HIV-recent HPgV-low n = 37 | HIV-late HPgV-low n = 82 | HIV-recent HPgV-high n = 15 |
HIV-late HPgV-negative n = 118 | -0.056481 | ||||
HIV-recent HPgV-low n = 37 | -0.101481 | -0.045 | |||
HIV-late HPgV-low n = 82 | -0.017579 | +0.038902 | +0.083902 | ||
HIV-recent HPgV-high n = 15 | -0.086815 | -0.030333 | +0.014667 | -0.069236 | |
HIV-late HPgV-high n = 22 | +0.118064 | +0.174545* | +0.219545‡ | +0.135643 | +0.204879 |
The Table shows the differences of CD4+/CD8+ ratio means between the 6 formed conditions (Bonferroni comparison test). CD4+/CD8+ ratio is expressed in natural numbers.
* = p<0.05.
‡ = statistically significant although not necessarily related to HPgV infection.
