Toward a Functional Cure for Chronic Hepatitis B: Current Landscape and Future Directions in Japan
Hepatitis B is a viral liver infection that can become chronic, increasing the risk of developing liver cancer and liver failure. Because current treatments rarely cure these problems, researchers are now focusing on a functional cure in which the virus becomes undetectable in blood and stays that way, even after the treatment ends.

ABSTRACT Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss is associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection based on studies predominantly in Asian populations. We assessed real‐world associations between HBsAg loss and long‐term clinical outcomes in a diverse US population with chronic HBV infection. This

Tenofovir, Interferon Pathways, and Mucosal Immunity: Implications for People Living With HIV
ABSTRACT Background Antiretroviral therapy (ART) suppresses HIV replication and protects people living with HIV (PLWH) from progressing to AIDS. However, despite ART, many PLWH experience chronic immune activation, which contributes to premature aging and non‐AIDS‐related comorbidities. One reason for this chronic immune activation (CIA) is HIV and its

Limited evidence exists synthesizing the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) associated with the concomitant administration of multiple nephrotoxic drugs, and even less examining the concept of nephrotoxic burden. The objective of this scoping review was to (1) identify definitions of nephrotoxic burden; (2) methods used to quantify (use of calculations)

ABSTRACT Background Palliative care is essential to manage symptoms and end‐of‐life (EOL) quality, yet its utilisation in liver cancer remains poorly understood. This study examined sociodemographic and clinical characteristics associated with palliative care admission in the last 5 years of life for people with a death from liver cancer.

IKAROS Associated Immunodeficiency and Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in IKZF1 (IKAROS) are linked to immunodeficiency, malignancy, and immune dysregulation. We describe a family with a rare IKZF1 variant presenting with humoral immunodeficiency and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). A non‐consanguineous family was clinically monitored; clinical, immunological, and genetic data (exome
