    Dolutegravir resistance is an increasing concern. An analysis of the DTG RESIST study found that among 227 integrase sequences from 7 African countries (all non-B subtypes), 59 (26.0%) had at least 1 major drug resistance mutation (primarily G118R and E138A/K/T), with 49 (21.6%) predicted to have high-level resistance to dolutegravir.

    Eligibility for antiretroviral therapy is no longer based on immune criteria. In a global cohort of 97,453 children, between 2005 and 2021, we observed large declines in CD4 measurement, from 51% to 12% among <5 seconds, and from 74% to 20% among those 5-14 years of age. Lack of CD4 testing may negatively affect clinical care and surveillance of severe immune suppression.
