“…It has been shown that a VL ≥1000 copies/mL is an independent risk factor for MTCT [46]. For high-risk WLHIV VL ≥1000 copies/mL, routine caesarean delivery reduces MTCT, whereas women in the later stages of gestation may not have VL results before delivery [47]. In contrast, in WLHIV with VL <1000 copies/mL, MTCT can be virtually eliminated by ART and viral suppression [48].…”

BackgroundPeople living with HIV (PLWH) and receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) have a goal of achieving and maintaining viral suppression; however, the existence of PLWH that show events of low‐level viremia (LLV) between 50 and 1000 copies/mL and with different virological consequences have been observed. Moreover, some reports indicate that LLV status can lead to residual immune activation and inflammation, leading to a higher occurrence of non‐AIDS‐defining events (nADEs) and other adverse clinical outcomes. Until now, however, published data have shown controversial results that hinder understanding of this phenomenon's actual cause(s) and origin(s). Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs)‐based therapies could lead to lower LLV over time and, therefore, more effective virological control.ObjectivesThis review aims to assess recent findings to provide a view of the clinical significance and management of low‐level HIV viremia in the era of INSTIs.
