Abstract:
Objective To determine the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) primary drug resistance (HIV-PDR) in newly reported HIV-infected individuals in Dehong Prefecture,Yunnan Province in 2015.Methods Newly reported HIV-positive patients who had viral load ≥ 1 000 copies/mL from January to November in 2015 were tested for HIV-PDR by reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and HIV pol gene sequencing.HIV-PDR was determined according to the Surveillance Drug Resistance Mutations (SDRM) list of Stanford University,which was recommended by World Health Organization (WHO) in 2009.Results A total of 322 newly reported HIV-infected cases whose pol gene was successfully amplified were included in the final analysis.Of them,211 (65.5%) were male,and 229 (71.1%) were sexually transmitted.A total of 152 (47.2%) were Chinese.A total of 29 HIV subtypes were found,including type B (12.1%),type C (28.0%),type CRF01_AE (24.5%),type CRF07_BC (5.9%),type CRF08_BC (5.6%),type 62_BC (7.5%),type BC-new breakpoint (3.4%) and other subtypes (13%).Six patients (1.9%) were defined as primary resistance to HIV according to the WHO standard.Conclusions The prevalence of HIV-PDR is 1.9% among newly reported HIV-infected individuals,which is relatively low in the studied area.But HIV-PDR surveillance should be strengthened in this area with the scaling up of antiretroviral therapy.
