Predictive value of C-reactive protein for hospitalization and mortality among people with advanced HIV disease in Uganda receiving the WHO-recommended package of care
People with advanced HIV disease (CD4 ≤200 cells/µL) remain at high risk for opportunistic infections, hospitalization, and death, despite access to antiretroviral therapy (ART). We evaluated serum C-reactive protein (CRP) as a predictor of 30-day hospitalization or death among...

High CRP = high risk.
In a Ugandan cohort of 1,378 people with advanced HIV (CD4 ≤200), Dr. Boulware’s team found that CRP ≥10 mg/L predicted a 4× higher risk of hospitalization and 10× higher risk of death within 30 days. #IDSky
