Patterns of primary antiretroviral drug resistance in antiretroviral-naive HIV-1-infected individuals in a midwest university clinic

AIDS. 2006 Oct 24;20(16):2115-6. doi: 10.1097/01.aids.0000247579.08449.b6.

Abstract

A total of 192 HIV-1-infected antiretroviral-naive individuals had genotyping performed in our midwest university clinic between 2003 and 2005. The overall prevalence of resistance with either a reverse transcriptase or major protease mutation was 18%. There did not seem to be a significant difference in primary resistance patterns between different modes of HIV transmission (heterosexual versus men who have sex with men), gender or between white and African-American individuals.
