Abstract
Helminths were found to be associated with an increased HIV RNA level. Successful treatment of intestinal helminths reduced plasma HIV RNA levels in chronic HIV-1 subtype C infection. Considering the high endemicity of helminths in tropical settings, the management of chronically HIV-infected individuals must include deworming.
