Are there factors that could modify the immune response to infection? While CD4 count is pending, we can use the absolute lymphocyte count as a surrogate. One study showed that ALC of 1200 had sens 72.2%, , specificity 100% for CD4 count <200. https:
You can use the total lymphocyte count (TLC) on the CBC as a surrogate for CD4 count when a recent CD4 isn’t available TLC <1200 /mm3 has a PPV 100% for CD4 <200 ref: https://t.co/UUQ7uDyN88 https://t.co/bqrzrdhqbT
No CD4 count? Look at the total lymphocyte count instead: http://t.co/LyRpsKxD8p #emconf
