Trends in the Proportion of Hepatitis C Virus Antibody‐Positive Patients Who Could be Considered for Direct‐Acting Antiviral Therapy Identified Through Preoperative Testing for Ophthalmic Surgery: A Nationwide Multicenter Real‐World Cohort Study in Japan

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Although the number of HCV antibody‐positive patients in ophthalmology departments has decreased, the proportion requiring referral for DAA therapy has not declined despite the widespread use of DAAs. Furthermore, combining HCV antibody titer determination with EMR review improves the efficiency of identifying patients requiring referral.

Usable access to HIV testing and care among people with migrant backgrounds in Japan: A systematic review

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Japan's growing migrant population has increased the need for HIV services usable across linguistic, administrative and social circumstances. We reviewed evidence on access to HIV testing and care among people with migrant backgrounds and related non‐Japanese populations, focusing on movement into continuing care.

Migration‐related inequalities in HIV diagnosis, treatment initiation and retention in care among migrants in Greece

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Migrants account for a substantial proportion of people living with HIV in Europe, yet inequalities across the HIV care continuum remain insufficiently characterized. We examined migration‐related differences in HIV diagnosis, treatment initiation and retention in care in Greece.

Longitudinal changes in readily available inflammatory markers before and after switching to integrase inhibitor‐based antiretroviral therapy in Virologically suppressed people living with HIV: A Nationwide real‐world cohort study

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Persistent immune activation and systemic inflammation remain key features of chronic HIV infection despite sustained virological suppression under antiretroviral therapy (ART), contributing to excess non‐AIDS morbidity and mortality.

Patient Characteristics Associated with HCV Treatment Adherence, Treatment Completion, and Sustained Virologic Response in HIV Coinfected Patients

, 2020
Background. Hepatitis C (HCV) treatment efficacy among HIV patients is limited by poor treatment adherence and tolerance, but few studies have examined the psychosocial determinants of treatment adherence and outcomes. Methods.

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane
