The corresponding hazard ratios were 1.38 (CI, 1.23 to1.56) and 1.90 (CI, 1.67 to 2.15), respectively, for the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;combinedend point of AIDS-defining illness or death. Limitations: CD4 cell count at cARTinitiation was not randomized. Residual confounding may exist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 8pt;"&gt;CONCLUSION&lt;span style="font-weight:&amp;#xA;normal;mso-bidi-font-weight:bold"&gt; : Initiation of cART at a threshold CD4count of 0.500 × 10(9) cells/L increases AIDS-free survival. However, mortalitydid not vary substantially with the use of CD4 thresholds between 0.300 and0.500 × 10(9) cells/L.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
