The role of vitamin D status on treatment outcome among HIV-1 infected children

Abstract

Background: Kenya has a paediatric HIV burden of nearly 140,000 children, of which only 48% of those on antiretroviral therapy (ART) have achieved the desired viral suppression possibly due to vitamin D deficiency. This study explored the influence of vitamin D levels on treatment outcome among HIV-1 infected children receiving care in Kisumu County, Kenya.
