Why is it important?

This is a though provoking and hypothesis generating work that will lead to more improvement of the use of Tenofovir in terms of clinical monitoring. The next question to answer will be the clinical significance of the findings in this research.

Perspectives

This work is very dear to me, I spent hours in every aspect of this including collecting the data. I worked very closely with co-authors in accomplishing this task. I did the data analysis myself with input from a local expert. I was glad to do this work as it was my thesis project and contributed to the fulfilment of my masters of medicine requirement.
