Predictive factors of occurrence of cytomegalovirus disease and impact on survival in the Aquitaine Cohort in France, 1985 to 1994

Article Abstract:

Treatment to prevent cytomegalovirus infection could prolong the lives of some HIV patients. In a French study of 1,521 HIV patients who were followed for an average of one year, 111 developed cytomegalovirus infection. Risk factors for cytomegalovirus infection included older age, homosexuality, CD4 lymphocyte counts below 50, and an episode of toxoplasmosis or neurologic disease. People with cytomegalovirus infection were more likely to die even after other causes of death were excluded.
