Real‐world clinical and laboratory changes after switching to two‐drug regimen in HIV‐suppressed individuals: 48 weeks and beyond

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Two‐drug regimens (2DRs) may reduce long‐term drug toxicities and drug‐drug interactions for people with HIV (PWH) on antiretroviral therapy (ART). This study evaluated clinical and laboratory outcomes in PWH who switched from standard ART to dolutegravir and lamivudine (DTG + 3TC) in real‐world settings.

Prevalence of cardiometabolic diseases among ART‐naïve people with HIV: A global systematic review and meta‐analysis

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The burden of cardiometabolic diseases (CMDs) is rising in people with HIV (PWH). While extensive data exist on CMD prevalence in PWH receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART), comprehensive data on ART‐naïve PWH are scarce. We aimed to estimate the global prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, obesity and dyslipidaemia among ART ...

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response.

Sensitivity analysis for generalized estimating equation with non‐ignorable missing data

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Many incomplete‐data statistical inference procedures are developed under the missing at random (MAR) assumption. However, the MAR assumption has been criticized as being overly strong for real‐data problems, and is unverifiable by using observed data. To handle data that are missing not at random (MNAR), sensitivity analysis has been proposed

Physiological and anatomical determinants of placental drug transfer

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Fetal exposure to pharmaceuticals and their subsequent clearance back to the maternal circulation are governed by placental transfer. Passive diffusion down a maternal‐to‐fetal concentration gradient is the primary route of fetal drug exposure, with specific compounds undergoing transporter‐mediated transfer.
