CD4 and AIDS: Although similar outcomes have been observed for “late starters” and “ideal starters” (patients who presented with CD4 cell counts >350 cells/mm3 and initiated cART at CD4 cell counts 200–350 cells/mm3) after initiating cART [24], the incidence of AIDS and non-AIDS morbidity is significantly increased at CD4 cell counts 200–350 cells/mm3[29,30].
