HIV Infections
Conditions
Brief summary
The project aims to assess the level of oxidative stress biomarkers in HIV patients on effective antiretroviral treatment in correlation with other therapeutic, clinical, and viro- immunological parameters. The analysis aims to better characterize the patient on treatment through an innovative approach based on two specific tests for complementary assessment of total oxidant and anti-oxidant plasma capacity.
Interventions
