## Abstract
One of the manifestations of kidney disease is Microalbuminuria (MA). CD4 T cells are cells that play a central role in immune protection, wherein HIV infections, they are the primary target of the virus. CD4 cells counts is an indirect reflection of the activity and viral load of HIV. This study aimed to determine the correlation of CD4 counts with MA in HIV patients. A cross-sectional with thedescriptive analytical study was in HIV patients >18 years old without a history of Diabetes Mellitus. The result of thestatistical test is significant if the value of p <0.05. The prevalence of MA in subjects with CD4 cell counts <200 cells/μl was 56.1%, and NA was 43.9%. On the other hand, in subjects with CD4 ≥ 200 cells/μl, the prevalence of MA was 3.4% and the prevalence of NA was 96%. In conclusion, there was a significant correlation of low count CD4 (CD4 <200 cells/μl) with microalbuminuria in HIV patients.
