Comparison of laboratory tests between the case and control groups A- The cases had significantly lower CD4 counts than the controls (MD = 267.48 cells/mm3, 95% CI= (189.55, 345.41), P < 0.001). B- The cases had significantly higher viral loads than the controls (MD = 7.03 × 105 copies/mL, 95% CI= (4.46 × 105, 9.61 × 105), P < 0.001). C- The cases had significantly lower 25-OH vitamin D3 levels than the controls (MD = 33.86 ng/mL, 95% CI= (31.85, 35.87), P < 0.001)
