One of the major questions facing the taxonomy of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder is how to handle its marked heterogeneity in symptom presentation and impairments. The current methods for defining subtypes have been widely criticized but it is unclear if the subtype concept is fundamentally flawed or whether it is the methods for designating subtypes in current diagnostic approaches which are flawed. The current article is an introduction to a special section in which four articles provide data illustrating the complexity of considerations involving subtyping of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder and provide ideas for alternatives that warrant further discussion and examination.

Introduction: Co-infections of syphilis and HIV have been found to exacerbate the impact on sexual and reproductive health, especially among key population groups such as Female Sex Workers (FSWs) and Transgender Individuals (TGs). The data on the prevalence and determinants of syphilis and HIV in Pakistan, particularly in Sindh province, is limited. This prospective cross-sectional study aimed to determine the seroprevalence and risk factors for HIV and syphilis infections among FSWs and TGs in different cities of Sindh, Pakistan.
