Timing of antiviral treatment initiation is critical to reduce SARS-Cov-2 viral load

medRxiv, 2020
We modeled the viral dynamics of 13 untreated patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 to infer viral growth parameters and predict the effects of antiviral treatments.

Outcomes of a remote, decentralized health center-based HIV/AIDS antiretroviral program in Zambia, 2003 to 2007 [PDF]

, 2009
A cross-sectional study of patients living with HIV/ AIDS treated during 2003 to 2007 in decentralized, rural health centers in Zambia was performed to measure virological outcomes after 12 months of antiretroviral therapy and identify factors associated

A Well Infant With Coronavirus Disease 2019 With High Viral Load

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2020
A well 6-month-old infant with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) had persistently positive nasopharyngeal swabs up to day 16 of admission. This case highlights the difficulties in establishing the true incidence of COVID-19, as asymptomatic individuals

The immunological interface: dendritic cells as key regulators in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Pitfalls of viral load testing [PDF]

Microbiology Australia, 2010
Viral load testing is the quantitative measurement of viral nucleic acid in body fluids or tissues. In medical practice, viral load assays are commonly performed for HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C viruses. These assays are funded under the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS) system (Item numbers 69378/81/82, 69482/3 and 69488 respectively).

Effects of storage and viral load on hepatitis C viral genotyping [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2001
AbstractHepatitis C virus (HCV) genotyping is important for determining the treatment protocol for hepatitis C patients. Since amplified material from the Roche HCV Monitor kit is compatible with the Innogenetics INNO‐LiPA HCV II kit (line probe assay), amplicons from the Monitor assay can be used to identify the HCV genotype.

Predictors of HIV Viral Load Suppression After Enhanced Adherence Counseling, Nekemte, Ethiopia

Journal of Epidemiology and Global Health
Background Enhanced adherence counseling refers to the counseling intervention for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) patients with an elevated viral load result, a viral load of > 1000 copies/ml, on a routine or need-based viral load test.

Enterovirus genomic load and disease severity among children hospitalised with hand, foot and mouth disease

EBioMedicine, 2020
Background: Examining associations between viral genomic loads of enteroviruses and clinical severity is important for promoting and improving development of antiviral drugs related to hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD).

Interaction vesicles as emerging mediators of host‐pathogen molecular crosstalk and their implications for infection dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interaction extracellular vesicles (iEVs) are hybrid vesicles formed through host‐pathogen communication. They facilitate immune evasion, transfer pathogens' molecules, increase host cell uptake, and enhance virulence. This Perspective article illustrates the multifunctional roles of iEVs and highlights their emerging relevance in infection dynamics ...
