  2. Viral load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_load

    Viral load, also known as viral burden, is a numerical expression of the quantity of virus in a given volume of fluid, including biological and environmental specimens. It is not to be confused with viral titre or viral titer , which depends on the assay.

  3. Viral load monitoring for HIV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_load_monitoring_for_HIV

    A count of the viral load is routine before the start of HIV treatment. [1] If the treatment is not changed, then viral load is monitored with testing every 3–4 months to confirm a stable low viral load. [1] Patients who are medically stable and who have low viral load for two years may get viral load counts every 6 months instead of 3. [1]

  4. HIV set point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HIV_set_point

    The higher the viral load at the set point, the faster the virus will progress to AIDS; the lower the viral load at the set point, the longer the patient will remain in clinical latency, the next stage of the infection. The asymptomatic or clinical latency phase is marked by slow replication of the HIV virus, followed by steady depletion of CD4 ...

  5. Virus quantification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus_quantification

    Virus quantification is counting or calculating the number of virus particles (virions) in a sample to determine the virus concentration. It is used in both research and development (R&D) in academic and commercial laboratories as well as in production situations where the quantity of virus at various steps is an important variable that must be monitored.

    viral interference viral load. Also called viral burden and viral titre. A numerical expression of the quantity of virus in a given volume, typically expressed as the number of individual viral particles per unit volume but also by quantifying other factors that are closely related to or influenced by viral concentration. Viral load often ...

  7. Management of HIV/AIDS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_of_HIV/AIDS

    Suppressing the viral load to undetectable levels (<50 copies per ml) is the primary goal of ART. [56] This should happen by 24 weeks after starting combination therapy. [83] Viral load monitoring is the most important predictor of response to treatment with ART. [84] Lack of viral load suppression on ART is termed virologic failure.

  9. Undetectable = Untransmittable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undetectable_=_Untransmittable

    It means that if someone has an undetectable viral load, they cannot sexually transmit HIV to others. [1] U=U is supported by numerous health groups and organisations worldwide, including the World Health Organization (WHO). [2] The validity of U=U has been proven through many clinical trials involving thousands of couples.
