Pharmacokinetics of dolutegravir, tenofovir and lamivudine during venous–venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO): A case report

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 92, Issue 5, Page 1487-1492, May 2026.
While providing potentially life‐saving cardiorespiratory support for critically ill patients, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may detrimentally affect pharmacokinetic (PK) performance and concurrent drug efficacy and safety. We describe a patient with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) in the context of acquired immunodeficiency ...

Torque Teno Virus in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid of Hematological Patients and Association With Pathogens

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Torque teno virus (TTV) replication is tightly modulated by the host immune response. As such, TTV viremia has been investigated as a biomarker of immune competence for monitoring the risks of allograft rejection and opportunistic infections in solid organ transplant recipients.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): A Comprehensive Overview From Basic Biology to Clinical Prevention and Control

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 3, Page 672-712, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.
