CD4:CD8 Lymphocyte Ratio as a Quantitative Measure of Immunologic Health in HIV-1 Infection: Findings from an African Cohort with Prospective Data

In individuals with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, CD4:CD8 lymphocyte ratio is often recognized as a quantitative outcome that reflects the critical role of both CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells in HIV-1 pathogenesis or disease progression.
