- The study focused on analyzing genetic subtypes of HIV and the rate of drug resistance in newly diagnosed HIV-infected men aged 50 or older in Guangxi from January to June 2020.
- Out of 615 participants, the majority were infected with the HIV subtypes CRF01_AE, CRF07_BC, and CRF08_BC, with a total of 22 patients showing resistance to at least one type of antiretroviral drug.
- The research found that pretreatment resistance to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) was more common than to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), indicating a generally low prevalence of drug resistance among this population
