The effect of primary drug resistance on CD4 cell decline and the viral load set-point in HIV-positive individuals before the start of antiretroviral therapy

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of primary resistance and selected polymorphic amino-acid substitutions in HIV reverse transcriptase and protease on the CD4 cell count and viral load set point before the start of antiretroviral treatment. DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. METHODS: A total of 6180 individuals with a resistance test prior to starting antiretroviral treatment accessing […]

RegaDB is a free and open source data management and analysis environment for infectious diseases. RegaDB allows clinicians to store, manage and analyse patient data, including viral genetic sequences. Moreover, RegaDB provides researchers with a mechanism to collect data in a uniform format and offers them a canvas to make newly developed bioinformatics tools available to clinicians and virologists through a user friendly interface.
