The data were collected from medical records after local institutional review board approval.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>78 patients were included, and almost half of the living patients (75) in 2009 were 11\u201315\u2005years of age. The average age at diagnosis was 38.8\u2005months, treatment was most often initiated from 12 to 35\u2005months of age, and HAART was the most common treatment. Most patients (51.3%) were hospitalised between one and five times, and the first regimen was not associated with hospitalisation (p=0.2). The majority of patients did not exhibit virological suppression at the last examination, and genotyping revealed the presence of resistance mutations. Failure of therapy was often the result of non-adherence to therapy. Five patients died, and the causes of death were pneumonia, sepsis, cerebral cryptococcosis and myocarditis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>Despite the availability of drugs and appropriate laboratory tests, a significant number of paediatric patients were failing ARV therapy due to non-adherence. Further interventions to enhance adherence in this population are needed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/sextrans-2011-050457","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,10]],"date-time":"2012-06-10T09:39:16Z","timestamp":1339321156000},"page":"525-527","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Characteristics of HIV-positive patients infected by vertical transmission, Campo Grande, MS, Brazil, 1993\u20132009"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"88","author":[{"given":"Vanessa Terezinha Gubert de","family":"Matos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana L\u00facia Lyrio de","family":"Oliveira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Albert Schiaveto de","family":"Souza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M\u00e1rcia Maria Ferrairo Janini","family":"Dal Fabbro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.1","first-page":"105","article-title":"Cobertura da testagem sorol\u00f3gica e preval\u00eancia da infec\u00e7\u00e3o pelo HIV entre gestantes do Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil, 1999 a 2003","volume":"14","author":"Fabbro MMFJD","year":"2005","journal-title":"Epidemiol Serv Saude"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/QAD.0b013e328326ca37"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0019261"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1","DOI":"10.1590\/S0036-46652005000100001","article-title":"Analysis of HIV-type 1 protease and reverse transcriptase in Brazilian children failing Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART)","volume":"47","author":"Machado","year":"2005","journal-title":"Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/QAI.0b013e318207a55b"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2334-6-1"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hivar.2011.03.003"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.8","first-page":"S221","article-title":"Effect of antiretroviral therapy in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-infected children","volume":"88","author":"Chearskul","year":"2005","journal-title":"J Med Assoc Thai"},{"key":"2024051321024067000_88.7.525.9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e311","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijid.2009.05.017","article-title":"Antiretroviral treatment outcome following genotyping in Thai children who failed dual nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors","volume":"14","author":"Bunupuradah","year":"2010","journal-title":"Int J Infect Dis"}],"container-title":["Sexually Transmitted Infections"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/syndication.highwire.org\/content\/doi\/10.1136\/sextrans-2011-050457","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,14]],"date-time":"2024-05-14T04:37:59Z","timestamp":1715661479000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/sti.bmj.com\/lookup\/doi\/10.1136\/sextrans-2011-050457"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,9]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"7","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,19]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2012,11]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1136\/sextrans-2011-050457"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/sextrans-2011-050457","relation":{},"ISSN":["1368-4973","1472-3263"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1368-4973","type":"print"},{"value":"1472-3263","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,9]]}}}
