Absolute CD4 and CD8 T cell counts obtained from MWCCS database, and were determined by standardized flow cytometry at the time of original blood sample collection; T cell subsets determined by multicolor flow cytometry at the time of thawing of viable PBMC aliquots as described in the STAR Methods, and absolute T cell subset counts calculated from total CD4 and CD8 counts (see also Table S4).
All participants HIV-uninfected at Visit A, matched on age and hepatitis C status.
SC recently HIV-infected, SN persistently HIV-uninfected at matched time intervals at Visit B.
p values are for comparison of SC vs. SN at each visit by t-tests (p values in italics, bold if < 0.05).
