The aim of this study was to compare the T cell counting and viral load in seropositive women for HIV with normal cervical smear and intraepithelial lesions. 87 women were studied, 26 with normal smear, 46 with low grade intraepithelial lesions and 15 with high grade intraepithelial lesions. Women with normal smears showed the lowest viral load and high grade lesions the highest. There were no differences between cervical smear result and T cell counting.

Background: New indicators of potential human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission are being actively explored. We aim to categorical testing of the viral load (VL) of persons living with HIV (PLWH) in order to explore new indicators to measure the intensity of the epidemic and the effectiveness of the response in the community.
Methods: A dynamic cohort study was conducted in Yining to monitor the VL of all persons living with HIV from 2017 to 2019.

Purpose: To investigate if Yttrium-90 radioembolization (Y90 TARE) is a safe and effective treatment in people living with HIV (PLWH) with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) across the BCLC stage spectrum.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective review was conducted of all patients with HCC presented at a multidisciplinary institutional liver tumor board who underwent Y90 TARE between January 2014 and June 2023. Thirty-nine patients with documented HIV seropositivity prior to Y90 TARE and adherence to HAART were included.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), caused by the highly variable PRRS virus (PRRSV), presents a significant challenge to the swine industry due to its pathogenic and economic burden. The virus evades host immune responses, particularly interferon (IFN) signaling, through various viral mechanisms. Traditional vaccines have shown variable efficacy in the field, prompting the exploration of novel vaccination strategies.
