Prevalence of Mixed Cryoglobulins in Relation to CD4 Cell Count among Patients Coinfected with HIV and Hepatitis C Virus

Prevalence of Mixed Cryoglobulins in Relation to CD4 Cell Count among Patients Coinfected with HIV and Hepatitis C Virus

Cryoglobulinemia was studied in human immunodeficiency virus—positive, hepatitis C virus (HCV)—positive patients in relation to their CD4 cell count. Cryoglobulinemia was found in 18 (31.6%) of 57 patients: 17 (44.7%) of 38 patients with a CD4 cell count of ⩾200 cells/µL versus 1 (5.3%) of 19 patien...
