Laboratory data were taken from the electronic LighTen-study database including CD-4 cell counts (Pima™ CD4-test, Abbott, Cape Town, South Africa), HIV-RNA plasma levels (m-Pima™ HIV1/2 viral load-test, Abbott, Cape Town, South Africa), and creatinine plasma levels (Erba XL200, Erba, Mannheim, Germany). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated according to the CKD-EPI equation [26 (link)].

Baseline Evaluation of Malawian HIV Patients

All participants had a baseline evaluation beyond the standards of the Malawian HIV treatment program, including full blood count (AcT 5diff CP Hematology Analyzer, Beckman Coulter, Atlanta GA, USA), renal function tests (Erba XL200, Erba Mannheim, Germany), CD4 cell counts (Pima CD4-test, Abbott, Cape Town, South Africa), and HIV-RNA plasma levels (Cepheid GeneXpert, HIV viral load, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was calculated according to the CKD-EPI equation [27 (link)]. CD4 counts and viral load were measured every 6 and 12 months, respectively.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
