H1N1 Ab titer 
    Before vaccination (T0) NA NA < 20 < 20 < 20 NS 
    At 4 weeks (T2) NA NA (80-20 480) 720 (80-2560) 480 < 20 P = .04 

HIV-infected patients with undetectable viral load (< 40 copies/mL) were scored as 40 copies/mL for calculation of mean plasma virus load. H1N1 Ab titer was measured prevaccination (T0) and 4 weeks after vaccination (T2). Differences between HIV-infected vaccine responders versus nonresponders were analyzed by Student t test.

R indicates vaccine responders; NR, vaccine nonresponders; NA, not available; and NS, not significant.
