We also discuss whether there could be a drawback to HIV/AIDS programs due to drug resistance in Latin America and Caribbean in the next years. We observed that, although some studies report low or moderate primary drug resistance prevalence in Caribbean countries, this evidence needs to be updated. In other countries, such as Brazil and Argentina, the prevalence of drug resistance appears to be rising. Mutations conferring resistance against reverse transcriptase inhibitors were the most frequent in the analyzed populations (70% of all mutational events). HIV-1 subtype B was the most prevalent in Latin America and the Caribbean, although subtype C and B/F recombinants have significant contributions in Argentina and Brazil. Thus, we suggest that primary drug resistance in Latin America and the Caribbean could have been underestimated. Clinical monitoring should be improved to offer better therapy, reducing the risk for HIV-1 resistance emergence and spread, principally in vulnerable populations, such as men who have sex with men transmission group, sex workers and intravenous drug users.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25777517?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sandrin-Garcia, Paula</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Brandão, Lucas André Cavalcanti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Coelho, Antônio Victor Campos</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Guimarães, Rafael Lima</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pancoto, João Alexandre Trés</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Segat, Ludovica</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Donadi, Eduardo Antônio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">de Lima-Filho, José Luiz</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Crovella, Sergio</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mannose binding lectin gene (MBL2) functional polymorphisms are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus in southern Brazilians.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hum Immunol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hum.

To uncover a possible association between MBL2 gene polymorphisms and SLE, we analyzed functional polymorphisms in the promoter and first exon of the MBL2 gene in 134 Brazilian SLE patients and 101 healthy controls. Genotype and allele frequencies of MBL2 A/O polymorphism were significantly different between patients and controls, and the O allele was associated with an increased risk of SLE. An association between low mannose binding lectin (MBL) producer combined genotypes and increased risk for SLE was also reported. Furthermore, when stratifying SLE patients according to clinical and laboratory data, an association between the A/O genotype and nephritic disorders and between the X/Y genotype and antiphospholipid syndrome was evident. Combined genotypes responsible for low MBL production were more frequently observed in SLE patients with nephritis. Our results indicate MBL2 polymorphisms as possible risk factors for SLE development and disease-related clinical manifestations.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21510992?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
