Thymic Involution and Function in People With HIV and General Population Controls: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis From Two Danish Cohort Studies

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 10, October 2026.
Thymic involution, the age‐related replacement of thymic soft tissue by fat, has been linked to immunosenescence and chronic inflammation. Whether HIV infection affects thymic involution remains unclear. We found that people with HIV on long‐term antiretroviral therapy had more thymic tissue than controls, indicating less thymic involution. More thymic

A scoping review of the acceptability, feasibility and effectiveness of opt‐out blood‐borne virus (BBV) testing in secondary healthcare settings, in the UK and similar settings, using APEASE criteria

HIV Medicine, Volume 27, Issue 10, Page 1558-1583, October 2026.
Abstract Background Earlier diagnosis of blood‐borne viruses (BBVs)—HIV, hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis C (HCV)—remains a significant public‐health focus. Opt‐out testing in secondary healthcare settings can improve early diagnosis and linkage to care as part of BBV transmission elimination targets.
