Normal CD4 counts for age and low immune activation despite high viral loads in paediatric non-progressors. a–c absolute CD4 count, CD4 % and viral load in ART-naïve paediatric subject 517-C over the first 10 years of life. 10th, 50th, and 90th centile of absolute CD4 and CD4% are shown in panels A-B for uninfected children over the first 10 years of life18–19. d Longitudinal viral load data from 170 cART-naïve paediatric non-progressors. Viral load declines with age over the first 5 years (r = −0.34, p < 0.0001) but then plateaus thereafter. e Current absolute CD4 counts and viral loads in 170 paediatric non-progressors. f Lack of correlation between CD4 count and viral load in 170 paediatric non-progressors
