CD32 is expressed on cells with transcriptionally active HIV but does not enrich for HIV DNA in resting T cells [PDF]

, 2018
The persistence of HIV reservoirs, including latently infected, resting CD4+ T cells, is the major obstacle to cure HIV infection. CD32a expression was recently reported to mark CD4+ T cells harboring a replication-competent HIV reservoir during ...

Estimating HIV Cross-sectional Incidence Using Recency Tests from a Non-representative Sample [PDF]

arXiv
Cross-sectional incidence estimation based on recency testing has become a widely used tool in HIV research. Recently, this method has gained prominence in HIV prevention trials to estimate the "placebo" incidence that participants might experience without preventive treatment. The application of this approach faces challenges due to non-representative

Targeting HIV-related Medication Side Effects and Sentiment Using Twitter Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
We present a descriptive analysis of Twitter data. Our study focuses on extracting the main side effects associated with HIV treatments. The crux of our work was the identification of personal tweets referring to HIV. We summarize our results in an infographic aimed at the general public.

FIB‐3 index as a novel age‐independent predictor of liver fibrosis and prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing hepatectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Fibrosis‐3 index (FIB‐3) can stratify the risk of the survival and the recurrence‐free survival. The FIB‐3 index is a reliable, age‐independent tool for assessing liver fibrosis and prognosis in HCC patients post‐hepatectomy. Its use may improve clinical outcomes and support personalized treatment strategies. Abstract Background Liver fibrosis is a key

Implications for HIV elimination by 2030 of recent trends in undiagnosed infection in England: an evidence synthesis [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
A target to eliminate Human Immuno-deficiency Virus (HIV) transmission in England by 2030 was set in early 2019. Estimates of recent trends in HIV prevalence, particularly the number of people living with undiagnosed HIV, by exposure group, ethnicity, gender, age group and region, are essential to monitor progress towards elimination.

Multi‐Module Micro/Nanorobots for Biomedical and Environmental Remediation Applications

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multi‐module microrobots (MNRs) have overcome the limitations of single‐module systems by integrating components such as propeller, actuator, manipulator, and imaging modalities. They show promise in biomedical applications, such as targeted drug delivery and tissue repair, as well as in environmental remediation, including pollutant removal.

Where have all the susceptible gonococci gone? A historical review of changes in MIC distribution over the past 75 years

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background Does the emergence of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae include the erasure of highly susceptible strains or does it merely involve a stretching of the MIC distribution?

Macrocyclic Peptide Probes for Immunomodulatory Protein CD59: Potent Modulators of Bacterial Toxin Activity and Antibody‐Dependent Cytotoxicity

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study presents novel macrocyclic peptides with low nanomolar affinity for CD59, an immunomodulatory cell surface receptor associated with human disease. Crystallographic and structure‐activity relationship (SAR) studies reveal peptide CP‐06 mimics the binding of biologically relevant CD59 interaction partners. Dimeric and lipidated CP‐06 analogues
