Low CD4/CD8 ratio is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in late and non-late presenters: results from a multicentre cohort study, 2004-2018

Lourdes Dominguez-Dominguez et al.

Summary: The study of 10,018 ART-naive HIV-infected individuals found that a decreasing CD4/CD8 ratio over time is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality, independent of late presentation status.

Long-term antiretroviral therapy initiated in acute HIV infection prevents residual dysfunction of HIV-specific CD8+ T cells

Hiroshi Takata et al.

Summary: ART initiation in acute HIV infection preserves functional HIV-specific CD8(+) T cells, albeit at numbers too low to control viral rebound post-ART. HIV remission strategies may need to boost HIV-specific CD8(+) T cell numbers and induce stem cell-like properties to reverse the residual dysfunction persisting on ART in people treated after acute infection prior to ART release.

Long-term effects of early antiretroviral initiation on HIV reservoir markers: a longitudinal analysis of the MERLIN clinical study

Marta Massanella et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the long-term effects of early antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation on the HIV reservoir in high-risk populations. The findings suggest that initiating ART within 30 days of HIV infection leads to a sharper and more sustained decline in the HIV reservoir, indicating long-term benefits in reservoir clearance.
