Background: Non-malarial febrile illnesses (NMFI) pose significant challenges in HIV-infected children, often leading to severe complications and increased morbidity. While traditional diagnostic approaches focus on specific pathogens, shotgun metagenomic sequencing offers a comprehensive tool to explore the microbial landscape underlying NMFI in this vulnerable population ensuring effective management.
Methods: In this study, we employed shotgun metagenomics to analyse stool samples from HIV-infected children at the Baylor Children's Clinic Uganda presenting with non-malarial febrile illness.

Introduction: Invasive fungal disease (IFD) is a morbid superinfection that can arise in critically ill patients with COVID-19 infection. Studies evaluating the full spectrum of COVID-19-associated fungal infections remain limited.
Methods: Single-center retrospective study assessing IFD in patients with COVID-19, hospitalized for ≥ 72 h in the intensive care unit (ICU) between 02/25/20 and 02/28/22 (n = 1410).

Background: Concerns have been expressed about the feasibility of laparoscopic right hepatectomy (Lap-RH) after portal vein occlusion (PVO), because of its technical difficulty. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of lap-RH after PVO.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from high-volume HPB centers was performed.

Background: Pseudogynecomastia in MWL patients is characterized by excess skin in chest, lateral chest, axilla and upper abdomen without enlargement of the breast glandular component. The aim of this work was to study long-term aesthetic outcomes of correction of severe pseudogynecomastia post-weight loss with inferior pedicle technique with some refinements.
Methodology: This prospective study included 15 patients underwent chest contouring after massive weight loss within period of 2 years between January 2022 and January 2024.

Inadequate information exists regarding physiological changes post-COVID-19 infection. We used smart beds to record biometric data following COVID-19 infection in nonhospitalized patients. Recordings of daily biometric signals over 14 weeks in 59 COVID-positive participants' homes in 2020 were compared with the same participants' data from 2019.
