Abstract

See full text

Improved methods for determining normal IGF-1 levels in HIV infected subjects, based on a determination of the log of IGF-1 values obtained in blood-derived samples from a population of HIV-infected subjects, are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of determining whether a given HIV-infected subject exhibits a normal IGF-1 level, based on a comparison of either the IGF-1 value or the log of the IGF-1 value obtained from a blood-derived sample of the subject with a normative IGF-1 range determined using the exponentiation of the log of IGF-1 values or the log of IGF-values obtained in blood-derived samples from a population of age- and gender-matched HIV-infected subjects. Such methods are useful for example to monitor GH stimulation therapy in HIV-infected subjects.
