The Association of Pretransplant CD4 Count With Post‐Kidney Transplant Infectious Outcomes Among Persons With HIV

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
In this multi‐center study comparing persons with HIV with pre‐kidney transplant CD4 < 350 cells/µL to those with ≥ 350 cells/µL, we found no difference in relative risk of infection in the first year‐post kidney transplant, 5‐year graft survival, and 5‐year overall survival.

Human Herpesvirus 8 Causes a Wide Spectrum of Disease in Liver Transplant Recipients and May be Donor Derived: Case Series and Systematic Review of an Emerging Challenge

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Among 135 cases of post‐liver transplant HHV8 disease (4 from NSW), presentations varied, and mortality was high (44%). Donor screening was rare, and donor‐derived infection was suspected in 33%. Survival improved with mTORi, reduced immunosuppression, chemotherapy, and, for non‐KS disease, donor screening. ABSTRACT Background Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)

A Monte Carlo based dose verification tool for an HDR Ir‐192 brachytherapy source and its evaluation on extremity malignancies

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background TG‐43 formalism dose calculation for brachytherapy with the homogeneous water‐based assumption is widely used, which can lead to dose inaccuracy in treatment planning. Purpose Extremity malignancies are also treated with high‐dose‐rate (HDR) 192Ir interstitial brachytherapy, a treatment site that has not been specifically ...

Angiosarcoma Presenting as a Chronic Non‐Healing Lower Extremity Ulcer in Lymphoedema: A Challenge

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Cutaneous angiosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy that may arise in chronic lymphoedema. Its presentation as a non‐healing ulcer can lead to delayed diagnosis. We describe an atypical case of angiosarcoma presenting as a chronic lower extremity ulcer in the setting of chronic lymphoedema and to highlight the importance of early biopsy.

Transmission of human herpesvirus-8 through liver transplantation and development of post-transplantation Kaposi sarcoma: A case report

IDCases
Introduction: Kaposi sarcoma is a vascular tumour associated with human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) infection. Due to immunosuppressive treatment, solid organ transplant recipients infected with HHV-8 have increased risk of Kaposi sarcoma.

The Host Cell Factor Phosphatase‐2A Subunit PR130 Restricts Replication of Herpes Simplex Virus Type‐1

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
Molecular, genetic, virological, and biochemical analysis in combination with global proteome and phosphoproteome profiling and functional assays were applied to study the role of PR130 in the context of HSV‐1 replication. The observations reveal that host‐intrinsic mechanisms regulate HSV‐1 replication and highlight PR130 as a susceptibility factor of
