"Patients with AIDS were younger and predominantly male; they had a shorter duration of prior illness, higher initial serum cryptococcal antigen titers, and lower initial cerebrospinal fluid white blood cell counts than those with neoplastic disease."1.28Cryptococcal meningitis: outcome in patients with AIDS and patients with neoplastic disease. ( Armstrong, D; Blevins, A; Cirrincione, C; White, M, 1992)
