We describe a case of a 46-year-old man in Missouri, USA, with newly diagnosed advanced HIV and PCR-confirmed mpox keratitis. The keratitis initially resolved after intravenous tecovirimat and penicillin for suspected ocular syphilis coinfection. Despite a confirmatory negative PCR, he developed relapsed, ipsilateral PCR-positive keratitis and severe ocular mpox requiring corneal transplant.

- This study evaluated the connection between self-rated health (SRH) and care outcomes in U.S. adults with HIV, analyzing data from a nationally representative sample of 3,692 individuals.
- The results showed that 72% reported "good or better" SRH, but certain factors like missed appointments, depression and anxiety symptoms, unstable housing, and food insecurity were linked to lower SRH.
- The authors suggest that addressing these non-physical health needs, along with improving mental health and housing stability, could enhance SRH among people living with HIV in the U.S.
