Directly observed antiretroviral therapy: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised clinical trials. [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Directly observed therapy has been recommended to improve adherence for patients with HIV infection who are on highly active antiretroviral therapy, but the benefit and cost-effectiveness of this approach has not been established conclusively.

Intact HIV-1 proviruses accumulate at distinct chromosomal positions during prolonged antiretroviral therapy

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2019
Chromosomal integration of genome-intact HIV-1 sequences into the host genome creates a reservoir of virally infected cells that persists throughout life, necessitating indefinite antiretroviral suppression therapy.
