HIV Dynamics and Integrase Inhibitors
The integrase inhibitor (INI) raltegravir has shown promising results in clinical trials to date, reducing second phase HIV RNA levels by 70% in comparison with standard regimens. These trial results have been limited by the 50 copies/ml detection limit of the HIV RNA assay and have not investigated the effect of an INI regimen on levels of latently ...

ABSTRACT People with HIV (PWH) are living longer, but contemporary data on non–AIDS‐defining cancers (NADCs) in Italy remain limited. We assessed incident cancers in a retrospective cohort of PWH in Milan, Italy, between January 2000 and December 2023. Follow‐up was grouped into 2000–2007, 2008–2015, and 2016–2023. Incidence rates (IRs) were calculated

Advancing Therapies for Mycobacterial Diseases: From Small Molecules to Host‐Directed Strategies
ABSTRACT The global burden of multidrug‐resistant tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) and the rising incidence of nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections highlight the urgent need for innovative therapeutic strategies. Current treatments are prolonged, toxic, and increasingly compromised by resistance and limited diagnostic capacity.

SIEDY Diagnostic Accuracy in Assessing Erectile Dysfunction in Young Men Living With HIV
ABSTRACT Background Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a multidimensional condition commonly affecting men living with HIV. The structured interview of erectile dysfunction (SIEDY) is the only validated tool assessing organic, relational, and psychological factors contributing to ED, while dynamic penile color Doppler ultrasound (dPCDU) is a reliable method ...

Abstract Introduction Antiretroviral therapy (ART) for people living with HIV has led to dramatically reduced mortality and improved life expectancy. This achievement is accompanied by a higher risk for metabolic and other non‐communicable diseases. The role and contribution of various ART regimens to adverse metabolic outcomes are not fully understood.
