Enhanced Immunological Recovery With Early Start of Antiretroviral Therapy During Acute or Early HIV Infection–Results of Italian Network of ACuTe HIV InfectiON (INACTION) Retrospective Study

摘要

Viral load peak and immune activation occur shortly after exposure during acute or early HIV infection (AEHI). We aimed to define the benefit of early start of antiretroviral treatment (ART) during AEHI in terms of immunological recovery, virological suppression, and treatment discontinuation.
