Table 1 Sociodemographic and clinical data of the control subjects (n = 20), people living with HIV-1 with therapeutic success (PLHIV-1s, n = 40) and people living with HIV-1 with therapeutic failure (PLHIV-1f, n = 50). Healthy control subjects and PLHIV-1 under ARV treatment for at least 6 months were recruited at the University hospital of Abomey-Calavi/Sô-Ava between October 2021 and April 2022

  1. ND: Not determinated, U: Undetectable. TDF: Tenofovir, 3TC: lamivudine, EFV: Efavirenz, DTG: Dolutegravir, PLHIV-1: People living with HIV-1, IQR: Interquartile, ART: Antiretroviral. The statistical differences were determined using the nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney test. Differences were considered significant when p values are less than 0.05
