Comparison of total HIV-1 DNA test results between PBMC and whole blood Samples (N = 44). a Detection values of total HIV-1 DNA in PBMC and whole blood samples from 44 cases. b Mean comparison of total HIV-1 DNA between PBMC and whole blood group. The statistical method was Paired T test. c Correlation between total HIV-1 DNA test results in PBMC and whole blood group. The statistical method was Pearson correlation analysis. d Consistency between PBMC and whole blood total HIV-1 DNA test results, statistical method was bland-altman. The horizontal coordinate is the mean value of HIV-1 DNA test results between whole blood and PBMCs, and the vertical coordinate is the difference value of HIV-1 DNA test results between whole blood and PBMCs. The solid blue line in the figure is the mean value of the difference between the detection results of the two samples (Mean = 0.04). The top and bottom dotted lines are the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA). PBMC: peripheral blood mononuclear cell
