Difference in Toxoplasma gondii Seroprevalence Rates Due to Low and High CD4 Counts in Patients with HIV/AIDS

Published in: Turkiye parazitolojii dergisi (2019)

We concluded that HIV/AIDS patients with low CD4 counts have higher epidemiological risk as well as immunological risk of toxoplasmosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first meta-analysis evaluating the seroprevalence of T. gondii in AIDS/HIV population by comparing the seroprevalance of T. gondii in subgroups formed according to CD4 counts.
