SUMMARY
To study the prevalence of drug resistance mutations among HAART (highly active anti-retroviral therapy) naive subjects with HIV-1 subtype B infection, evaluate the correlation between major mutations and viral loads. Additionally, to investigate the primary resistance spectrum in the central plains of China and provide some guidance for the choice of antiretroviral drugs (ARV). Drug resistance mutations and viral loads were measured in 78 treatment-na
