Summary

This study looked at tissue samples from tonsils, lymph nodes, intestines, and lungs of people with HIV and healthy volunteers. The goal was to measure virus levels and immune cells to better understand how HIV behaves in the body during treatment. About 386 adults took part, and the findings help researchers learn more about the disease without directly testing a new treatment.
