Article Synopsis
- HIV-2 is primarily found in West Africa, and there are currently no solid guidelines for its diagnosis and treatment, prompting the creation of a collaborative research network to address these gaps.
- Data was collected from 1,754 patients across 13 clinics in five West African countries, detailing ART initiation ages, clinical stages, and CD4 counts among HIV-2 and dual-infection patients.
- Results showed that while there was some increase in CD4 counts after ART, management and treatment outcomes indicated that current clinical practices are insufficient, highlighting a need for further research and clinical trials.
