Résumé
Cryptococcosis is a systemic mycosis prevalent in immunosuppressed individuals, particularly those with HIV/AIDS. Immune recovery achieved through antiretroviral therapy (ART) is crucial for controlling opportunistic infections in AIDS. Given clinical observations and evidence suggesting Cryptococcus spp. accelerates HIV replication in vitro, we hypothesized that cryptococcosis may hinder immune recovery in severely immunosuppressed AIDS patients.
