Next-day HIV viral load testing results do not significantly improve linkage to treatment or prevention care for adults at risk for acquisition or people with HIV not receiving daily antiretroviral ...

A federally funded clinical trial suggests knowing HIV viral load (number of HIV particles in the body) doesn’t improve the number of patients seeking treatment for active HIV infection or preventive ...

A CD4+ count below 200 cells/μL, advanced age at antiretroviral therapy initiation, and protease inhibitor use were associated with low-level viremia and increased risk for virologic failure among ...

In a recent study published in Molecular Biology and Evolution, researchers investigated whether denser intrahost human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) populations had a higher incidence of coinfection ...

Researchers mapped more than 100 mutations that allow diverse HIV-1 strains to evade broadly neutralizing antibodies.

Researchers have identified a positive correlation between viral load and the rate at which genetic diversity increases within intrahost HIV populations. HIV has been historically difficult to treat ...

Nearly 400,000 people living with HIV in Kenya did not receive a viral load test in the final quarter of 2025, new data shows, a gap that could allow undetected treatment failures to silently ...

A new paper in Molecular Biology and Evolution, published by Oxford University Press, finds that HIV populations in people with higher viral loads also have higher rates of viral recombination. In ...
