*P values obtained upon comparison of statistical significance between LTS and Progressors using the Mann-Whitney U test. Bold numbers indicate that the value is considered statistically significant.

Mean ± SD.

Value for the normal range of CD4+ cells/μL provided by the Clinical Laboratories of the Medical Center at the University of California, San Francisco using standard protocols is 424 to 1,671 cells/μL.
