What is CEDRIC-HIV?
The Checklist for studies of Drug Resistance in HIV (CEDRIC-HIV) prevalence or incidence is a 15-item checklist for the title, introduction, methods, results, and discussion sections of any research paper on HIV drug resistance prevalence or incidence.
How should CEDRIC-HIV be used?
Prevalence and incidence data may be generated from a variety of study designs. This checklist would ensure transparent and replicable reporting of HIV drug resistance data from any study design.
The checklist is not meant to inform the design or implementation of research and the recommended items are not intended to be prescriptive. The goal, as with all reporting guidelines, is that what was done is presented clearly and in a manner that can inform replication, comparisons, and pooling of data.
