Molecular monitoring of HIV-1 drug resistance in Ifakara HIV-1 Cohort, Tanzania [PDF]

, 2013
HIV-1 resistance is one of the problems affecting success of antiretroviral therapy programmes worldwide. Many studies on efficacy of ART programmes, specifically on drug resistance, have been conducted in developed countries but not in developing ...

Soil-transmitted helminth reinfection after drug treatment : a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Soil-transmitted helminth (STH) infections (i.e., Ascaris lumbricoides, hookworm, and Trichuris trichiura) affect more than a billion people. Preventive chemotherapy (i.e., repeated administration of anthelmintic drugs to at-risk populations),

Evolution of primary HIV drug resistance in a subtype C dominated epidemic in Mozambique. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
In Mozambique, highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART) was introduced in 2004 followed by decentralization and expansion, resulting in a more than 20-fold increase in coverage by 2009. Implementation of HIV drug resistance threshold surveys (HIVDR-

Analysis of transmitted HIV-1 drug resistance using 454 ultra-deep-sequencing and the DeepChek(®)-HIV system. [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is capable of detecting resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) present at frequencies of 1% or below. Several studies have found that baseline low-frequency RAMs are associated with failure to first-line ...

Adherence as a predictor of the development of class-specific resistance mutations: the Swiss HIV Cohort Study [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Non-adherence is one of the strongest predictors of therapeutic failure in HIV-positive patients. Virologic failure with subsequent emergence of resistance reduces future treatment options and long-term clinical success. METHODS: Prospective

Characterizing the emergence and persistence of drug resistant mutations in HIV-1 subtype C infections using 454 ultra deep pyrosequencing. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: The role of HIV-1 RNA in the emergence of resistance to antiretroviral therapies (ARTs) is well documented while less is known about the role of historical viruses stored in the proviral DNA. The primary focus of this work was to characterize
