Figure 1

Disease status of young and old ChRM during early SIV infection. (a) Kaplan–Meier survival curve comparing SIVmac239-infected young macaques (n = 6, red solid line) with old macaques (n = 12, blue dashed line) during the 84 days after infection. The P value is given by the log rank (Mantel–Cox) test. (b) Plasma viral loads are expressed as SIV RNA copies/ml and are shown for every animal in the young (red circle) and old (blue square) groups. The data are shown as the mean ± SEM. The comparison between the two groups was performed by using two-way ANOVA. (c) Peak and set-point levels of viral load and days with peak viral load were compared between the young and old macaques. P values were determined by using the Mann-Whitney t-test.
