Protocol for a Pilot Quasi‐Experimental Study on the Effect of Patient‐Centered Education on HIV Virological Outcomes Among Adult People Live With HIV‐HBV Co‐Infection in North‐West Ethiopia: Protocol for a Pilot Quasi‐Experimental Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) remains a major public health challenge in sub‐Saharan Africa, including Ethiopia. Adults living with HIV are at increased risk of liver‐related complications, poor treatment outcomes, and suboptimal virological control, particularly when adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) is inadequate ...

Adding a Prevention Intervention to an Established App: The Blued+ HIV Prevention Pilot Study in Beijing and Chengdu, China

Journal of the International AIDS Society, Volume 29, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction HIV incidence among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China remains high, and the use of effective tools such as pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is suboptimal. Smartphone app interventions are promising yet rarely move beyond the research sphere. Rather than inventing stand‐alone apps that rarely come to scale, integrating health

Transcriptional Profiling of Growth Hormone–Secreting Pituitary Adenoma Stem‐Like Cells: Unveiling the Significant Role of CXCR4 in Tumorigenesis and Clinical Applications

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Growth hormone–secreting pituitary adenomas harbor hPASCs (human pituitary adenoma stem‐like cells). Genetic profiling of hPASCs identified CXCR4 as a significant gene orchestrating a regulatory network in the self‐renewal and differentiation of hPASCs, as well as the modulation of tumor cells and the microenvironment.

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv0132c Gene Product Mtb‐FGD2 Can Act as an F420‐Dependent Glucose Dehydrogenase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 9, Page 1610-1627, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The role of the cell envelope‐associated Rv0132c/FGD2 from Mycobacterium tuberculosis has long been a subject of debate. Importantly, FGD2 is found only in pathogenic mycobacteria, making it a potential drug target. While some suggest it functions as a glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase, others propose it acts instead as an F420‐dependent ...
