Comparable EBV load in NHL and other progressors or slow progressors. EBV DNA load in PBMCs (depicted in copies per 106 PBMCs) as measured by TaqMan real-time PCR of the BNRF1 gene at 6, 3, and 1 years before AIDS diagnosis (NHL and other progressors) or equivalent time from HIV seroconversion (slow progressors). • indicates progressors to NHL or other AIDS; and
, slow progressors. Values above the graphs indicate median EBV load levels of NHL versus progressors and slow progressors (P+SP) and the P value of the Mann-Whitney test.
