DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofy210.1692
Abstract: Abstract Background Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) has improved survival and morbidity, HIV-infected adults still have higher rates of non-AIDS disorders, such as neurocognitive impairment, than HIV-uninfected adults. (1–3)-b-D-Glucan (BDG) is a fungal cell wall component… read more here.
