An effective acquired immune response to infectious agents mediated by HLA-restricted T-cell recognition can target different stages of disease pathogenesis. We show here that three distinct HLA alleles known to alter the overall rate of AIDS progression act during distinct intervals after HIV-1 infection. The discrete timing of HLA allele influence suggests alternative functional mechanisms in immune defense against this dynamic and chronic immunosuppressive disease.

The effect of fixed-time interval and on-demand analgesia protocols for post cesarean pain on maternal chronic pain and child development - follow up of randomized controlled trial.

Objective: Post-cesarean delivery (CD) acute pain may progress to chronic pain, which may impair maternal bonding and child development. In 2013, we compared the efficacy of versus on-demand oral analgesia for post-caesarean pain in a randomized-controlled-trial. The fixed-time-interval group had received scheduled paracetamol, tramadol, and diclofenac regardless of pain level, and the on-demand group received medication as needed, with oxycodone reserved for unrelieved pain in both groups.

Background: Cerebrovascular pathology is an emerging key contributor to neurodegeneration in both non-pathological and pathological aging. Cerebrovascular pathology manifests as different markers in the brain (gross- vs micro-infarcts, chronic vs acute infarcts, etc.).

Background: The advent of remote and unsupervised digital cognitive assessment facilitates the use of frequent assessments only days apart to examine learning rates. Learning rates have been shown to differentiate patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD) from healthy individuals across a variety of cognitive measures. Here, we investigated whether impairments in learning rates in a mnemonic discrimination task were domain specific, as object and scene memory have been found to rely on anatomically distinct neural pathways that are differentially affected by AD.
