a negative trendp = 0.125
We observed a positive correlation of βDG with age (r = 0.351; p < 0.001) and with viral load (r = 0.429; p < 0.001) as well as a negative trend for CD4 counts (r = −0.135; p = 0.125). βDG levels correlated with sCD14 (r = 0.404; p = 0.002), IL‐6 (r = 0.404; p = 0.001), and IL‐8 (r = 0.640; p < 0.001) among HIV‐infected persons. βDG levels increased over 2‐years in the untreated AHI (111.2 ± 96.4 pg/mL p < 0.001) and remained stable in the early treated group.
