A low CD4/CD8 ratio in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals despite effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) reflects ongoing immune activation and has been linked to a higher risk of non-AIDS morbidity and mortality. Our aim was to describe the proportion of individuals with a persistent CD4/CD8 ratio <1 despite long-term viral suppression and to determine associated risk factors.
