Type of activity Evidence production

Please give additional activity details (i.e., reach, impact, duration, return on investment) Our results support the use of the CD4/CD8 ratio as a prognostic marker in clinical practice, especially in patients with values below 0.5, but consensus criteria on ratio timing measurement, cut-off values, and time to event are needed in future studies to get more robust conclusions.
