摘要
In Martinez-Picado and colleagues' study reported in this issue, fewer virologic failures occurred with alternating antiretroviral regimens than with continuous treatment with one triple-drug regimen. However, several subtleties in the study design and the analysis raise questions about the meaning of the findings and their application to clinical practice.
