The Role of Viruses in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the presence and potential pathogenic role of viruses in periodontitis. Design: Narrative Review; Population: Patients with periodontitis; Exposure: Detection of viruses in oral samples (biopsies, saliva, gingival crevicular fluid, subgingival plaque, blood); Outcome: Viral prevalence, load ...

Antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiated in the acute phase of HIV infection (AHI) results in a smaller viral reservoir. However, the impact of early HIV-specific T-cell responses on long-term reservoir dynamics is less well characterized.

Viruses, Periodontitis, and Systemic Diseases
This narrative review aimed to summarize current evidence on the viral involvement in periodontitis and its relevance for systemic diseases. The oral cavity acts as an active viral reservoir and dissemination platform, where virus–microbiome interactions may promote dysbiosis, periodontitis progression, and systemic inflammatory effects, while the ...

Hepatitis B in Organ Transplantation—Current Evidence and Clinical Gaps
ABSTRACT Over the past several decades there have been significant advances in nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) antiviral therapy for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and global expansion of primary prevention through immunization. Despite this, HBV remains a leading cause of chronic liver disease globally, affecting over 250 million people.

Lifestyle modification in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, phenotypes and ablation outcomes
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and healthcare utilization. Catheter ablation is increasingly used as a rhythm‐control intervention for patients with symptomatic paroxysmal and persistent AF, yet recurrence rates remain suboptimal.

Buruli ulcer is caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans and its toxin, mycolactone. Disease outcomes are influenced by biological, environmental, and social determinants. Biological factors include immune response and lesion severity. Environmental factors include aquatic exposure, rainfall, flooding, and ecological changes.

Multiple Sclerosis and Viruses: « Liaisons Dangereuses »
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex, multifactorial neurodegenerative disease with an aetiology that is still partially elusive. Several risk factors are associated with MS development including genetic predisposition and various environmental stressors; however, recently, viral infections have gained significant attention as a crucial ...

Exploring potential associations between the human microbiota and reservoir of latent HIV
Background The rapid establishment and persistence of latent HIV-1 reservoirs is one of the main obstacles towards an HIV cure. While antiretroviral therapy supresses viral replication, it does not eradicate the latent reservoir of HIV-1-infected cells ...

Brain viral reservoirs were undetectable in neonatal SIV during the first 3 days post infection; antiretroviral therapy (ART) at 3 dpi prevented brain reservoir seeding and normalized metabolic function, highlighting the necessity of very early treatment to protect the developing CNS.
