Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome: Opening Pandora’s Box [PDF]
One of the purposes of antiretroviral therapy (ART) is to restore the immune system. However, it can sometimes lead to an aberrant inflammatory response and paradoxical clinical worsening known as the immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS ...

Development of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Immune Recovery Uveitis Is Associated with Th17 Cell Depletion and Poor Systemic CMV-Specific T Cell Responses [PDF]
We tested whether impaired systemic immunoregulation and hyperactive immune responses are associated with an immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome, CMV IRU.

Abstract Objectives Despite improvements in survival of people with HIV admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), late diagnosis continues to contribute to in‐ICU mortality. We quantify the population attributable fraction (PAF) of in‐ICU mortality for recent late diagnosis among people with HIV admitted to a London ICU.

Increased adaptive immune responses and proper feedback regulation protect against clinical dengue [PDF]
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne viral disease. Clinical symptoms of dengue virus (DENV) infection range from classical mild dengue fever to severe, life-threatening dengue shock syndrome. However, most DENV infections cause few or no symptoms.

A model for the integration of conflicting exogenous and endogenous signals by dendritic cells [PDF]
Cells of the immune system are confronted with opposing pro- and anti-inflammatory signals. Dendritic cells (DC) integrate these cues to make informed decisions whether to initiate an immune response. Confronted with exogenous microbial stimuli, DC endogenously produce both anti- (IL-10) and pro-inflammatory (TNF$\alpha$) cues whose joint integration ...
