However, AIDS-RL with >300 CD4+ lymphocytes/mm3 expressed lower NKp44/NCR2 than HIV + patients without lymphoma with >300 CD4+ lymphocytes/mm3 (MFIr median (M) = 1.52; interquartile range (IQR)[1.24-1.850] vs M = 1.80 IQR[1.540-2.110], p = 0.011) and than HS (M = 1.75 IQR[1.650-2.000], p = 0.006). Here, CD4 is linked to lymphoma.
