Relationship between lymphocyte immune status and plasmatic HIV-1 viral load in Leishmania /HIV-1 co-infected patients during remission phase of leishmaniasis. A. Absolute counts of CD4⁺ T lymphocytes. B. Absolute counts of CD4⁺ T lymphocytes and viral load levels. C. Levels of CD38 expression on CD8⁺ T lymphocytes. D. CD38 expression on CD8⁺ T lymphocytes and viral load levels. American visceral leishmaniasis (AVL)/HIV-AIDS patients (solid squares), American tegumentary leishmaniasis (ATL)/HIV-AIDS patients (solid triangles), HIV-1 infected adults without leishmaniasis (HIV infected, solid diamonds) and healthy subjects (solid circles). Each point represents one subject. The horizontal bars express median.
