Country Level Diversity of the HIV-1 Pandemic between 1990 and 2015

Summary: The research revealed that there is extremely wide variation in the complexity of country level HIV diversity worldwide. Central African countries have the most diverse HIV epidemics, while Western Europe and North America have the greatest number of distinct HIV-1 subtypes and recombinants. The highest proportion of HIV-1 infections due to recombinants was found in Southeast Asia, China, and West and Central Africa.

Plasma Inflammatory Biomarkers Predict CD4+ T-cell Recovery and Viral Rebound in HIV-1 Infected Africans on Suppressive Antiretroviral Therapy

Summary: Persistent systemic inflammation, as indicated by plasma biomarkers, during suppressive antiretroviral therapy in HIV-1-infected individuals, may impact CD4(+) T-cell recovery and viral rebound during long-term treatment. Changes in biomarker concentrations could affect viral replication and immune recovery in patients. Further research is needed to understand these potential mechanisms in order to improve clinical outcomes.

2021 update to HIV-TRePS: a highly flexible and accurate system for the prediction of treatment response from incomplete baseline information in different healthcare settings

Summary: Novel computational models were developed to accurately predict treatment responses in HIV therapy, even in the absence of baseline data. These models showed strong performance in predicting virological response and absolute changes, offering potential benefits in resource-limited settings.

Improving host-directed therapy for tuberculous meningitis by linking clinical and multi-omics data

Reinout van Crevel

Summary: There is a clear need to improve host-directed therapy for tuberculous meningitis (TBM), as the current therapy options are limited. The ULTIMATE project aims to address unanswered questions about tryptophan metabolism during TBM and identify novel therapeutic targets for TBM patients. Through integrating data from large patient studies and clinical trials, ULTIMATE seeks to determine which TBM patients benefit from corticosteroids and explore the potential of targeting the tryptophan pathway for treatment.

Summary: This article reviews the strategies for AMR surveillance using routine microbiology results in LMICs, emphasizing the need for support in certain areas. Different surveillance strategies need to be thoroughly understood in terms of their limitations and potential biases to ensure maximum utilization and interpretation of local routine microbiology data.

Safety and Pharmacokinetic Profiles of Long-Acting Injectable Antiretroviral Drugs for HIV-1 Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials

Gilbert Lazarus, Vincent Kharisma Wangsaputra, Christianto, Melva Louisa, Vivian Soetikno, Raph L. Hamers

Summary: This study investigated the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles of long-acting injectable pre-exposure prophylaxis (LAI PrEP) for HIV-1 prevention, specifically focusing on cabotegravir (CAB-LA) and rilpivirine (RPV-LA). Results showed that both CAB-LA and RPV-LA were generally well-tolerated with favorable prospects in viral inhibitory activity. Further research is needed to confirm the findings on RPV-LA due to limited current evidence.

Hamers, Thomas Jaki, Edmund Juszczak, Katie Jeffery, Wei Shen Lim, Alan Montgomery, Andrew Mumford, Kathryn Rowan, Guy Thwaites, Marion Mafham, Richard Haynes, Martin J. Landray

Summary: In patients hospitalized with COVID-19, aspirin was not associated with reductions in 28-day mortality or in the risk of progressing to invasive mechanical ventilation or death, but was associated with a small increase in the rate of being discharged alive within 28 days.

Faust, Thomas Jaki, Katie Jeffery, Edmund Juszczak, Wei Shen Lim, Alan Montgomery, Andrew Mumford, Kathryn Rowan, David M. Weinreich, Richard Haynes, Martin J. Landray

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of casirivimab and imdevimab in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. The results showed that this combination therapy reduced the 28-day mortality rate in patients without detectable antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 infection at baseline, but not in those with detectable antibodies.

Summary: This study investigated the in-hospital mortality of COVID-19 patients in Jakarta, Indonesia from March to July 2020. The results showed that the risk of death was associated with factors such as age, gender, comorbidities, clinical diagnosis, and treatment methods. Patients with more comorbidities had a higher risk of mortality across all age groups.
