Elevated Pre—Antiretroviral Therapy CD39+CD8+T Cell Frequency Is Associated With Early Mortality in Advanced Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Tuberculosis Co-infection
Correlates of death soon after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation remain unclear. We investigated the association between expression of CD39, a novel immune exhaustion marker, and early mortality in patients with human immunodeficiency virus/tuberculosis co-infection. Elevated pre-ART CD39+CD8+ T cell frequency was independently associated with mortality within 6 months of ART initiation.
