(1→3)-β-D-Glucan: A Biomarker for Microbial Translocation in Individuals with Acute or Early HIV Infection?

Background: The extent of gut microbial translocation, which plays roles in HIV disease progression and non-AIDS comorbidities, appears to vary with the composition of the gut microbiome, particularly the presence of Lactobacillales, which reduce mucosal injury.
