Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the impact of starting antidepressants on viral load suppression in HIV-positive patients with untreated depression.
- Researchers conducted a retrospective study with 946 patients and found that only 16% started an antidepressant after being diagnosed with depression.
- The results revealed no significant association between antidepressant use and improved viral load suppression, suggesting that different approaches may be needed for certain patients who do not respond to typical treatments.
The Johns Hopkins HIV Clinical Cohort, established in 1989, links comprehensive, longitudinal clinical data for adults with HIV receiving care in the Johns Hopkins John G. Bartlett Specialty Practice in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, to aid in understanding HIV care and treatment outcomes. Data include demographics, laboratory results, inpatient and outpatient visit information and clinical diagnoses, and prescribed and dispensed medications abstracted from medical records.

In the lateral line sensory system of the zebrafish, developing sensory axons reorganize their terminal arborization patterns to establish precise neural microcircuits around the mechanosensory hair cells. However, a quantitative understanding of the changes in the sensory arbor morphology and the regulators behind the microcircuit assembly remain enigmatic.

In this study, we characterized the anxiety care continuum and its association with viral suppression in a large urban HIV clinic in the United States.
Design: Observational cohort study.
Objective: Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTI) are associated with weight gain in people with HIV (PWH), but their impact on diabetes is unclear. We evaluated the association between switching from nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) or protease inhibitors (PI) to INSTI and incident diabetes.
Design: Longitudinal cohort study.
