Aid to Fight AIDS: An Empirical Analysis of HIV‐Specific Development Aid Effectiveness
ABSTRACT Using an excludable instrument for HIV‐specific aid, we investigate its effectiveness on HIV outcomes viz., prevalence and death rates. We theorize that HIV‐specific aid fills the funding gap that prevents governments from committing adequate resources to effectively address the epidemic.

HHV‐8/KSHV in Solid Organ Transplantation: Current Gaps of Knowledge and Future Directions
Risk mitigation strategies, including donors/recipients screening, DNAemia monitoring in recipients at risk, CNI‐to‐mTOR inhibitors switch, antivirals, and rituximab for KICS, may mitigate the impact of HHV‐8/KSHV infection in SOT. This review provides an update on KICS, identifies research gaps, and summarizes advances in screening and management ...

Spontaneous apoptosis and highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)
Increased programmed cell death (PCD) or apoptosis has been detected in the T cells of HIV-infected subjects; it is held partially responsible for the continuous loss of CD4+ T cells during the natural course of HIV infection. Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) decreases the viral load and leads to an increase of CD4+ count in vivo.
