Data are percentages. P values < .05 are in bold.

DC indicates HIV-1 discordant couples; CC, HIV-1 concordant couples; OR, odd's ratio; CI, confidence interval; and NA, not applicable.

*

According to models described by Moretta et al.11  “Matched” occurs when the specified inhibitory KIR of the recipient recognizes an HLA-C allotype present in the index (regardless of recipient HLA). “Missing self” occurs when the specified inhibitory KIR of the recipient recognizes an HLA-C allotype present in the recipient that is lacking in the index.

χ2 tests or Fisher exact tests when cells have expected counts less than 5.
