摘要：
Methods: Two hundred and fifty-eight HIV-exposed Indian infants at a median age of 5 months (range 1-18) had DNA PCR and CD4, CD8 counts performed. Results: Fifty five infants tested positive by HIV-1 DNA PCR whereas 203 were negative. Median CD4 count, CD4% and CD4/CD8 ratio were significantly lower in DNA PCR+ infants. Overall sensitivity and specificity of CD4/CD8 ratio < 1.0 in predicting HIV was 91 and 92% with a negative predicted value (NPV) and positive predicted value (PPV) of 97 and 76%, respectively. Conclusion: CD4/CD8 ratio < 1.0 is a more sensitive surrogate marker of HIV infection in Indian infants than a CD4 count < 1500 cells/mu l or CD4% < 25%.
