Redefining viral load suppression (VLS) using lower cutpoints could impact progress towards the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets. We assessed impacts of lowering the VLS cutpoint on achieving the 95-95-95 VLS target in the Rakai Community Cohort Study. Population VLS fell from 86% to 84% and 76%, respectively, after lowering VLS cutpoints from <1,000 to <200 and <50 copies/mL. The fraction of viremic persons increased by 17% after lowering the VLS cutpoint from <1,000 to <200 copies/mL.
使用更低的切点重新定义病毒载量抑制(VLS)可能会影响实现联合国艾滋病规划署95-95-95目标的进程。我们在拉凯社区队列研究中评估了降低VLS切点对实现95-95-95 VLS目标的影响。将VLS切点从<1000拷贝/毫升降至<200拷贝/毫升和<50拷贝/毫升后,总体人群的VLS分别从86%降至84%和76%。将VLS切点从<1000拷贝/毫升降至<200拷贝/毫升后,病毒血症患者的比例增加了17%。
