Real World Data from an Italian Outpatient Clinical Setting and from Home Care Assistance of Treatment-Experienced PWH Switching to CAB + RPV Regimen: A Prospective Observational Study.

The new Cabotegravir + Rilpivirine long acting (CAB + RPV) is the injectable regimen for treatment-experienced people with HIV (PWH). Little data from real-world settings are available, particularly in more complex PWH. We aimed to investigate the effectiveness of CAB + RPV in our real-life cohort of experienced PWH.

Factors associated with oxidative stress in virologically suppressed people living with HIV on long-term antiretroviral therapy.

Background: Oxidative stress (OS) is the imbalance between oxidant and antioxidant molecules, in favour of oxidants, that has been associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality in ART-treated people living with HIV (PLWH). We aimed to assess factors associated with OS in virologically suppressed PLWH on long-term modern ART.

Method: In this cross-sectional study we evaluated OS by measuring both the levels of derivatives-reactive oxygen metabolites (d-ROMs) and the biological antioxidant potential (BAP).

Investigating seroprevalence of IgG antibodies against Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) in a cohort of people living with HIV (PLWH) in Rome, during the 2022 outbreak: Moving beyond traditional at-risk populations.

Background: High incidence mpox rates suggest asymptomatic individuals may contribute to virus transmission. We undertook this study to assess the seroprevalence of IgG anti-MPXV in a cohort of asymptomatic PLWH, to analyze the size of the phenomenon of asymptomatic infections.

Materials And Methods: From October 2022 to March 2023 we serially collected serum samples from PLWH attending our Clinic.

Accretion of "young" Phanerozoic subcontinental lithospheric mantle triggered by back-arc extension-the case of the Ivrea-Verbano Zone.

The subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) beneath Phanerozoic regions is mostly constituted by fertile lherzolites, which sharply contrast with cratonic mantle made of highly-depleted peridotites. The question of whether this chemical difference results from lower degrees of melting associated with the formation of Phanerozoic SCLM or from the refertilization of ancient depleted SCLM remains a subject of debate. Additionally, the timing and geodynamic environment of accretion of the fertile SCLM in many Phanerozoic regions are poorly constrained.
