متن کاملEvaluation of Lamivudine Resistance Mutations in HBV/HIV Co-infected Patients
Background and Objective: The drug resistance mutations are key elements in the failure of long-term treatment of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections. The mutation in the YMDD motif in the P gene of HBV is the most critical factor in antiviral drug (especially lamivudine) resistance. This study aimed to assess the YMDD motif and other polymerase gene mutati...
متن کاملDiabetic patients infected with helicobacter pylori have a higher Insulin Resistance Degree
