Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves of median fluorescence intensity of activation markers on peripheral blood T-cells show the lack of usefulness of these parameters as indicators of poor virologic treatment reponse at 12 months of HAART. ROC curves were generated using the MS Excel template of Marley W. Watkins available at http://www.public.asu.edu/~mw watkin/software/rocanalysis.xls. Abbreviation: AUC = area under the ROC curve.
