    <p>HBV genes are shown in the coloured ovals. TDF = tenofovir, ETV = entecavir, 3TC = lamivudine. This figure incorporates data from eight studies; three were identified by the systematic review presented in this manuscript [<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.ref012" target="_blank">12</a>–<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.ref014" target="_blank">14</a>] and five from the wider literature [<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.ref007" target="_blank">7</a>,<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.ref015" target="_blank">15</a>–<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.ref018" target="_blank">18</a>].</p

    Annotated map to summarise HBV drug resistance associated mutations (RAMs) and vaccine escape mutations (VEMs).

    <p>Mutations identified from 33 studies of African cohorts published between 2007 and 2017 (inclusive). Four studies identified by our systematic literature review were not represented here as they did not report any RAMs. Full details of each citation can be found in <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.t001" target="_blank">Table 1</a>.</p

    Prevalence of HBV resistance associated mutations (RAMs) in Pol/RT proteins among HBV infected patients in Africa.

    <p>These data are derived from 27 studies of HBV drug resistance in Africa published between 2007 and 2017 (inclusive). The countries represented are listed in alphabetical order. A detailed summary of RAMs identified from each study is presented (<a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.g002" target="_blank">Fig 2</a>, <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.s006" target="_blank">S4 Table</a>, <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0006629#pntd.0006629.s007" target="_blank">S5 Table</a>). Prevalence of RAMs for a specific country was determined by grouping all studies from that country that reported a specific mutation. We used all individuals who tested HBsAg positive to generate a denominator in order to provide a conservative estimate of RAM prevalence, and the numerator was the total number of individuals with that specific mutation from these studies. A: treatment naĂŻve; B: treatment experienced.</p
