Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology
|January 1, 1988
Abstract:
Four HIV-1 positive patients with characteristic symptoms of this infection experienced amelioration or resolution of symptoms after 2 months of hyperimmunization with inactivated (Salk) poliomyelitis vaccine. The patient who was initially the most symptomatic exhibited a marked improvement in T4/T8 ratio at the sixth month of continued hyperimmunization treatment. With two patients reported previously, six consecutive patients with lymphotropic retrovirus disease have benefited from hyperimmunization with inactivated polio vaccine.
