Methods The natural changes of the CD4 + T cell before ART were divided into four groups among HIV / AIDS patients the immunologic recovery was described and Kaplan-Meier method were used to describe survival curve a- mong different groups of patients initiated ART. Multivariate logistic regression were used to analyse factors associated with immune non-responses. Results Among 777 HIV /AIDS patients the natural changes of CD4 + T cell after ART was significantly lower in gently and rapidly increased groups than rapidly decline groups among ART-naive HIV / AIDS patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that patients with natural increase of CD4 + T cell counts before ART initiation OR = % CI P = OR = % CI P = with baseline CD4 + T cell counts more than 500cell /μl OR = % CI P < and those older than 50 years old at ART initiaiton OR = % CI P = were more likely to have immune non-responses after ART. The cumulative survival rate was significantly lower in gently increased groups than the gently and rapid decline groups 2 = P = = P = further stratified analysis showed that those with baseline CD4 counts less than 200 cell /μlas well all P < Conclusions An association was identified between the natural changes of CD4 + T cell before ART and the immunologic recovery after ARTINRs and mortality.
