Growth in Virologically Suppressed HIV-Positive Children on Antiretroviral Therapy: Individual and Population-level References

BACKGROUND:Combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) suppresses viral replication in HIV-infected children. The growth of virologically suppressed children on ART has not been well documented. We aimed to develop dynamic reference curves for weight-for-age Z scores (WAZ) and height-for-age Z scores (...
