Abstract

The method of forecasting the probability of progressing of clinical stage of HIV-infection has been developed. The method includes bacteriological examination of mucosal membrane scrapings from the posterior wall of oropharynx in HIV-infected patients without clinical signs of disease of the pharynx, and the counting of fungi of the Genus Candida. In identifying the fungi of the genus Candida in the number of colony-forming units equal to or more than 103, the high probability which is 0.95 (forecasting of the positive the result) of transition of the clinical stage of HIV infection within the next 6 months into following clinical stage of the disease is stated,
