Transient Detection of Plasma HIV-1 RNA During Postexposure Prophylaxis
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
Transient plasma human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) copies were detected by nucleic-acid sequence-based amplification during combination antiretroviral prophylaxis in a healthcare worker who reported a percutaneous injury from a stylet and who remained HIV-antibody-negative. An HIV-specific T-helper response, assessed by interleukin-2 production, was observed when tested at 13 months following the exposure.
