| dc.description.abstract | Preliminary survey in Benue State shows that 96 HIV/AIDS individuals were infected with pathogenic microsporidium. 966, 42 (4.3%) males CD., T-cells count were <335 cell/pl, and in the female category 1042, 54 (5.2%) CDj T-celis were <320 cell/pl at the first C04 pathogenic microsporidium in M1V/A1DS individuals was observed as a leading-cause of diarrhea, and a fall in the CD4 T-cells count after 90 days • of re-evaluation. Among the age group of 30-39 years, the CD4 cells count gradually deteriorate to <200 cell/pl indicating high risk to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and opportunistic• infections. However, there was a significant relationship among sexes given that, Z=1.039<±1.96 in other words, microsporidium was solely depended on age which shows no significant relationship among the age groups count. The strain of ; (x2=7.815>0.05). | en_US |
