The temporal relationships between plasma human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) RNA levels and evolution of CD4(+) cell counts was studied, using a 2-slope longitudinal mixed model, in 988 patients prospectively enrolled at the initiation of a protease inhibitor-containing regimen of antiretroviral therapy. The short-term slope (baseline through month 4) for mean change in CD4(+) cell count was +21.2 cells/mm(3)/month, and the long-term slope (month 4 through month 24) was +5.5 cells/mm(3)/month. Compared with results from patients without viral response, the long-term slope was 2.5 cells/mm(3)/month higher in patients who had plasma HIV RNA levels of
