| dc.description.abstract | The organism (Microsporidium) and improved diagnostic approaches In Nigeria Is increasingly common. Coated latex spheres of CD4 T- Cells Was Used To Determine HIV/AIDS individuals as A Preliminary Survey In Benue State Which Shows That 96 HIV/AIDS individuals were infected with pathogenic microsporidium. 966, 42 (4.3%) males CD4 T-cells count were <335 cell/pi, and in the female category 1042, 54 (5.2%) CD4 Tcells weie <320 cell/pi at the first CD4 count. The strain of pathogenic microsporidium in HIV/AIDS 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 decline to <200 cell/pi indicating high risk to acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and opportunistic infections. However, there was a significant difference among sexes given that, Z=1.039<±1.96 in other words, microsporidium solely depended on age which shows no significant relationship among the age groups (x2=7.815>0.05). | en_US |
