Incidence and Predictors of Opportunistic Infection Among People Living With HIV in Ethiopia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

AIDS Research and Treatment, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Opportunistic infections (OIs) play a crucial role in the morbidity and mortality of HIV‐infected individuals. Despite the increasing use of antiretroviral therapy, there remains a lack of comprehensive data on the incidence of OIs to provide a clearer national picture. Therefore, this systematic review and meta‐analysis aim to determine the

Mild Autonomous Cortisol Secretion in Context of Bilateral Macronodular Adrenocortical Disease due to ARMC5 Mutation: A Rare Familial Case

Case Reports in Endocrinology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Bilateral macronodular adrenocortical disease (BMAD) is an uncommon cause of endogenous Cushing syndrome, often diagnosed through bilateral adrenal incidentalomas without clinical manifestations of hypercortisolism. Mutations in the armadillo repeat-containing 5 (ARMC5) gene represent one of the causes of this disease, frequently ...

Lyapunov Stability and Optimization of a Fractional‐Order HIV/AIDS Model Coupling Vertical Transmission With Saturated Treatment

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This research introduces a fractional‐order nonlinear model for the dynamics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) using Caputo‐type derivatives of noninteger order. Solution properties of the model are investigated by analyzing positivity and boundedness characteristics via the generalized mean value ...
