Variation in the HIV transcriptional activity among the study groups. (A) Values were normalized according to CD4 percentage data. (B) Ratio HIV-RNA/HIV-DNA (ca-HIV-RNA/ HIV-DNA). Ratio of 5 × 10–4 was considered the minimum value in MVC-Initiation and non-MVC-Initiation groups, and 1 × 10–4 was considered the minimum value in the MVC-switch group. Statistics: mixed linear regression analysis (**** p < 0.0001, n.s.: not significant).
