    الوصف: Abstract With the rapid increase in HIV prevalence of men who have sex with men (MSM) in recent years and common human migration and travelling across different provinces in China, MSM are now finding it easier to meet each other, which might contribute to local HIV epidemics as well as fueling cross-province transmission. We performed a cross-sectional survey in 2018–2019 to investigate the current HIV subtype diversity and inferred HIV strain transmission origin among MSM in Guangxi province, China based on a phylogenetic analysis. Based on 238 samples, we found that the HIV-1 subtype diversity was more complicated than before, except for three major HIV subtypes/circulating recombinant forms (CRFs): CRF07_BC, CRF01_AE, CRF55_01B, five other subtypes/CRFs (CRF59_01B, B, CRF08_BC, CRF67_01B, CRF68_01B) and five unique recombinant forms (URFs) were detected. In total, 76.8% (169/220) of samples were infected with HIV from local circulating strains, while others originated from other provinces, predominantly Guangdong and Shanghai. The high diversity of HIV recombinants and complicated HIV transmission sources in Guangxi MSM indicates that there has been an active sexual network between HIV positive MSM both within and outside Guangxi without any effective prevention. Inter-province collaboration must be enforced to provide tailored HIV prevention and control services to MSM in China.

    الوصف: Abstract The prevalence of HIV-1 in Guangxi is very high, and the rate of HIV-1 infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) has been increasing. Therefore, it is necessary to explore the patterns and risk factors of HIV transmission in Guangxi. For this purpose, individuals diagnosed with HIV-1 during 2013–2018 in Guangxi were recruited. Phylogenetic relationship, transmission clusters, and genotypic drug resistance analyses were performed based on HIV-1 pol sequences. Related factors were analysed to assess for their association with HIV-1 transmission. CRF07_BC (50.4%) and CRF01_AE (33.4%) were found to be the predominant subtypes. The analysed 1633 sequences (50.15%, Guangxi; 49.85%, other provinces) were segregated into 80 clusters (size per cluster, 2–704). We found that 75.3% of the individuals were in three clusters (size ˃ 100), and 73.8% were high-risk spreaders (links ≥ 4). Infection time, marital status, and subtype were significantly associated with HIV-1 transmission. Additionally, 80.2% of recent infections were linked to long-term infections, and 46.2% were linked to other provinces. A low level of transmitted drug resistance was detected (4.8%). Our findings indicated superclusters and high-risk HIV-1 spreaders among the MSM in Guangxi. Effective strategies blocking the route of transmission should be developed.

    الوصف: Patients with antiretroviral therapy interruption have a high risk of virological failure when re-initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART), especially those with HIV drug resistance. Next-generation sequencing may provide close scrutiny on their minority drug resistance variant. A cross-sectional study was conducted in patients with ART interruption in five regions in China in 2016. Through Sanger and next-generation sequencing in parallel, HIV drug resistance was genotyped on their plasma samples. Rates of HIV drug resistance were compared by the McNemar tests. In total, 174 patients were included in this study, with a median 12 (interquartile range (IQR), 6–24) months of ART interruption. Most (86.2%) of them had received efavirenz (EFV)/nevirapine (NVP)-based first-line therapy for a median 16 (IQR, 7–26) months before ART interruption. Sixty-one (35.1%) patients had CRF07_BC HIV-1 strains, 58 (33.3%) CRF08_BC and 35 (20.1%) CRF01_AE. Thirty-four (19.5%) of the 174 patients were detected to harbor HIV drug-resistant variants on Sanger sequencing. Thirty-six (20.7%), 37 (21.3%), 42 (24.1%), 79 (45.4%) and 139 (79.9) patients were identified to have HIV drug resistance by next-generation sequencing at 20% (v.s. Sanger, p = 0.317), 10% (v.s. Sanger, p = 0.180), 5% (v.s. Sanger, p = 0.011), 2% (v.s. Sanger, p < 0.001) and 1% (v.s. Sanger, p < 0.001) of detection thresholds, respectively. K65R was the most common minority mutation, of 95.1% (58/61) and 93.1% (54/58) in CRF07_BC and CRF08_BC, respectively, when compared with 5.7% (2/35) in CRF01_AE (p < 0.001). In 49 patients that followed-up a median 10 months later, HIV drug resistance mutations at >20% frequency such as K103N, M184VI and P225H still existed, but with decreased frequencies. The prevalence of HIV drug resistance in ART interruption was higher than 15% in the survey. Next-generation sequencing was able to detect more minority drug resistance variants than Sanger. There was a sharp increase in minority drug resistance variants when the detection threshold was below 5%.

    الوصف: Abstract As the most dominant HIV-1 strain in China, CRF01_AE needs to have its evolutionary and demographic history documented. In this study, we provide phylogenetic analysis of all CRF01_AE pol sequences identified in mainland China. CRF01_AE sequences were collected from the Los Alamos HIV Sequence Database and the local Chinese provincial centers of disease control and prevention. Phylogenetic trees were constructed to identify major epidemic clusters. Bayesian coalescent-based method was used to reconstruct the time scale and demographic history. There were 2965 CRF01_AE sequences from 24 Chinese provinces that were collected, and 5 major epidemic clusters containing 85% of the total CRF01_AE sequences were identified. Every cluster contains sequences from more than 10 provinces with 1 or 2 dominant transmission routes. One cluster arose in the 1990s and 4 clusters arose in the 2000s. Cluster I is in the decline stage, while the other clusters are in the stable stage. Obvious lineage can be observed among sequences from the same transmission route but not the same area. Two large clusters in high-level prevalence were found in MSM (Men who have sex with men), which highlighted that more emphasis should be placed on MSM for HIV control in mainland China.

    الوصف: Yunnan, Guangxi and Henan are the provinces with the most severe HIV epidemic in China, which were also among the first group of areas providing free ART in 2004. However, little comprehensive data are available on prevalence of HIV subtype and baseline drug resistance in drug-naïve populations. In this study, 1746 treatment-naïve HIV-positive individuals were randomly selected from new-reported cases in Henan, Guangxi and Yunnan. Among of them, subtypes and drug resistance of 1159 strains were determined by amplifying and sequencing full-length pol genes. Significantly different distributions of HIV subtypes prevalent in three provinces were identified (P

    الوصف: There are great disparities of the results in immune reconstruction (IR) of the HIV-1 infected patients during combined antiretroviral therapy (cART), due to both host polymorphisms and viral genetic subtypes. Identifying these factors and elucidating their impact on the IR could help to improve the efficacy. To study the factors influencing the IR, we conducted a 15-year retrospective cohort study of HIV-1 infected individuals under cART. The trend of CD4 + count changes was evaluated by the generalized estimating equations. Cox proportional model and propensity score matching were used to identify variables that affect the possibility of achieving IR. The tropism characteristics of virus were compared using the coreceptor binding model. In addition to baseline CD4 + counts and age implications, CRF01_AE cluster 1 was associated with a poorer probability of achieving IR than infection with cluster 2 (aHR, 1.39; 95%CI, 1.02-1.90) and other subtypes (aHR, 1.83; 95%CI, 1.31-2.56). The mean time from cART initiation to achieve IR was much longer in patients infected by CRF01_AE cluster 1 than other subtypes/sub-clusters ( P < 0.001). In-depth analysis indicated that a higher proportion of CXCR4 viruses were found in CRF01_AE clusters 1 and 2 ( P < 0.05), and showed tendency to favour CXCR4 binding to V3 signatures. This study indicated the immune restoration impairment found in patients were associated with HIV-1 CRF01_AE cluster 1, which was attributed to the high proportion of CXCR4-tropic viruses. To improve the effectiveness of cART, more efforts should be made in the early identification of HIV-1 subtype/sub-cluster and monitoring of virus phenotypes.
