The impact of clotting factor concentrates on the immune system in individuals with hemophilia
Abstract
All reported studies to date, whether comparative or not, have shown a tendency toward a slower decrease in CD4+ numbers in patients receiving very high-purity agents with the rapidity in fall-off being affected by level of CD4+ numbers (low CD4+ numbers decreasing more rapidly), age (older persons showing more rapid CD4+ cell fall-off), and anti-HIV therapy. Clearly, these observations need to be extended in numbers, and the high-purity agents should also be similarly compared with the very high-purity therapies.
