Abstract

In this paper, we propose an ordinary differential equation model with logistic target cell growth to describe influence of raltegravir intensification on viral dynamics. The basic reproduction number $R_0$ is established. The infection-free equilibrium $E_0$ is globally attractive if $R_0 < 1$, while virus is uniformly persistent if $R_0 > 1$. In addition, we find that Hopf bifurcation can occur at around the positive equilibrium within certain parameter ranges. Numerical simulations are performed to illustrate theoretical results.
