The table shows P values calculated to observe whether any of the 3 groups is different from the others. The first column in the table compares group 1 with groups 2 and 3 at baseline, and the second column compares them after exposure to Ba-L. The final column compares the median differences among all 3 groups, before and after Ba-L HIV-1 (Kruskal-Wallis, one-sided test of variance). Because of the controversy surrounding the significance of 2-LTR circles, we performed significance tests on those who were called true LTNPs (group 1) versus those who had chronic suppression on HAART (groups 2 and 3 combined). No statistically significant differences in markers other than CD91 were observed.

MFI indicates mean fluorescence intensity.
