Figure 1

Increment on VL induced by co-infection as a result of HIV replicative capacity. The effect of HIV infection rate (k v ) and production rate (N) on the increment of the VL generated by co-infection was evaluated using the bidimensional parameter space with range 0.1 × 10-5 to 2 × 10-5/day for k v , and 20 to 300 virions/cell for N. In A spVL in absence of co-infection; B k Tm = k v ; C k Tm = k v /10; D k Tm = k v /20; and E k Tm = k v /30; where k Tm indicates the HIV infection rate for malaria immune cells.
