| Research Abstract |
We examined three assignments responsible for HIV patients before medication introduction ; 1) seasonal variation in CD4+ cell counts, 2) estimating CD4+ cell counts of an individual using population historical data, and 3) a feature in Japanese patients before medication introduction. The results indicated as follows ; 1) HIV patient's CD4+ cell counts decreases in early summer and increases in autumn in Japan, 2) our new method has potential that the relative coefficient between the predicted and actual CD4-counts keeps above 0.8 even in 12 month intervals, and 3) Japanese HIV patients have a feature of either the slow first hospital visit or the fast progression.
