The unexpected clinical and laboratory stabilization of our patient paralleled a progressive increase in his peripheral CD4+ T-lymphocyte count (range 410\u2013825 cells\/mL) and a relatively controlled HIV viraemia (5970\u201344,000 HIV-RNA copies\/mL). Such a recovery of sufficient immune competency after experiencing four episodes of severe AIDS-associated opportunistic infections, without reliable antiretroviral and antimicrobial support raises several questions. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,5,10]],"date-time":"2012-05-10T17:10:16Z","timestamp":1336669816000},"page":"e46-e47","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Long-term stabilized immunological\u2013virological parameters of HIV infection in an AIDS presenter followed for 20 years, with irregular or no antiretroviral therapy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"S","family":"Sabbatani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, Aging, and Nephrologic Diseases, University of Bologna \u2018Alma Mater Studiorum\u2019, S Orsola-Malipighi Hospital, Via Massarenti 11, Bologna I-40138, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R","family":"Manfredi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, Aging, and Nephrologic Diseases, University of Bologna \u2018Alma Mater Studiorum\u2019, S Orsola-Malipighi Hospital, Via Massarenti 11, Bologna I-40138, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Fulgaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, Aging, and Nephrologic Diseases, University of Bologna \u2018Alma Mater Studiorum\u2019, S Orsola-Malipighi Hospital, Via Massarenti 11, Bologna I-40138, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,3,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jac\/dkg314"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00002030-200411050-00006"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-1293.2004.00221.x"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/jac\/dkn169"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11904-009-0010-3"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C6","first-page":"1","volume":"58","author":"Kaplan JE","year":"2009","journal-title":"MMWR Recomm Rep"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2008.008115"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1089\/apc.2006.20.227"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1545109708323132"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2174\/157016208783884976"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-09-215C11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09540120802241871"}],"container-title":["International Journal of STD &amp; AIDS"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,4]],"date-time":"2025-03-04T08:04:36Z","timestamp":1741075476000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012,3]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2012,3]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1258\/ijsa.2009.009215","relation":{},"ISSN":["0956-4624","1758-1052"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0956-4624"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1758-1052"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012,3]]}}}
