Monocytes regulate the mechanism of T-cell death by inducing Fas-mediated apoptosis during bacterial infection. [PDF]

, 2012
Monocytes and T-cells are critical to the host response to acute bacterial infection but monocytes are primarily viewed as amplifying the inflammatory signal.

Attributable healthcare utilization and cost of pneumonia due to drug-resistant streptococcus pneumonia: a cost analysis [PDF]

, 2014
Background: The burden of disease due to S. pneumoniae (pneumococcus), particularly pneumonia, remains high despite the widespread use of vaccines. Drug resistant strains complicate clinical treatment and may increase costs.

Herd effects of child vaccination with pneumococcal conjugate vaccine against pneumococcal non-invasive community-acquired pneumonia: What is the evidence?

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2017
Quantification of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) herd effects are mainly performed on invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) but there is conflicting evidence regarding herd effects of PCVs on non-IPD pneumococcal community-acquired pneumonia.

Host Aging Induces a Senescent‐Like Phenotype in Neutrophils and Altered Transcriptional Responses to Streptococcus pneumoniae

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 3, March 2026.
Aging is associated with a senescent‐like phenotype in neutrophils that emerges in bone marrow cells; however, many facets of this phenotype are only fully acquired upon entry into peripheral tissues. This neutrophil senescent‐like phenotype is in part driven by TNFα and impairs resistance of aged hosts to S. pneumoniae. Created in BioRender. Boughanem

Infections in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: Evolving Risks and Prevention Strategies

European Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 3, Page 204-214, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Infections remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), reflecting both intrinsic immune dysfunction and therapy‐related immunosuppression. The pathogenesis of immunodeficiency in CLL is multifactorial: neoplastic B cells impair humoral immunity, T cells are functionally exhausted, and ...

Late diagnosis of paediatric HIV infection in high‐income countries: Lessons from the HIV Perinatal Virtual Clinic

HIV Medicine, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 477-484, March 2026.
Abstract Introduction Timely diagnosis of HIV in children remains a challenge in all settings including low‐prevalence, high‐income countries (HIC). We aimed to characterize the prevalence of late diagnosis, and prior missed diagnostic opportunities among new presentations of paediatric HIV in HIC referred to an international Perinatal Virtual Clinic ...
