Evaluation of Clinical and Immunological Markers for predicting Virological Failure in a HIV/AIDS treatment cohort in Busia, Kenya [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
In resource-limited settings where viral load (VL) monitoring is scarce or unavailable, clinicians must use immunological and clinical criteria to define HIV virological treatment failure. This study examined the performance of World Health Organization (

Magnitude and factors associated with virological failure among adults on first-line antiretroviral therapy in Dire Dawa, eastern Ethiopia: a retrospective chart review. [PDF]

BMC Res Notes
Background First-line antiretroviral therapy failure reduces the benefits of the antiretroviral therapy (ART) program and could lead to regimen change to a more expensive second-line ART.

Performance of Immunological Response in Predicting Virological Failure [PDF]

AIDS Research and Human Retroviruses, 2013
In HIV-infected individuals on antiretroviral therapy (ART), the decision on when to switch from first-line to second-line therapy is dictated by treatment failure, and this can be measured in three ways: clinically, immunologically, and virologically.
