Abstract:

The study x-rays the relationship between Koilocytes and [Cluster of Differentiation]CD4 Count from HIV positive unisex cohorts aged 15 -40 years and above. The cohorts, were randomly tested for the presence of koilocytes, using their semen and endocervical swab samples respectively at some top Hospitals in Abuja, F.C.T. Nigeria. Their blood samples were tested for CD4 count. Papanicolaou staining technique was adopted-for demonstrating koilocytes. Results showed that, high koilocytes count of 39.0% and low CD4 Count of 350 lymphocyte counts /μl were observed; and low monthly mean koilocytes count of 7.60% and high CD4 Count of 687 lymphocytes counts/ μl were observed in the female and male cohorts respectively. High monthly prevalence count of koilocytes and low CD4 Count in the female cohorts and verse versa in the male cohorts were significantly correlated (P<0.05). Depression of immunity, is worsen in HPV and HIV co- infectivity.
