Genital lesions are common in HIV positive patients and aetiology for these are mainly due to HSV, HPV or bacterial. They usually respond to HAART, antiviral or antimicrobials. We are presenting a young patient on HAART with non-healing genital ulcer lesions for sixteen months. He responded well to a change in ART regimen within a period of 15 days. This happened after a change to a more potent ART regimen.

Evidence-based treatment of chronic pain requires a multidisciplinary approach grounded in the biopsychosocial model. Implementing this approach within health systems relies on its acceptance by both healthcare providers and patients. While pioneering multidisciplinary pain clinics can serve as a model for implementation, a systematic effort is needed to share knowledge effectively and broadly.

Spinal cord segmentation is clinically relevant and is notably used to compute spinal cord cross-sectional area (CSA) for the diagnosis and monitoring of cord compression or neurodegenerative diseases such as multiple sclerosis. While several semi and automatic methods exist, one key limitation remains: the segmentation depends on the MRI contrast, resulting in different CSA across contrasts. This is partly due to the varying appearance of the boundary between the spinal cord and the cerebrospinal fluid that depends on the sequence and acquisition parameters.

Design: Cross-sectional analysis.
Methods: Descriptive analysis of ART regimens and dose of nucleoside/nucleotide reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) in people with HIV and ESKD (dialysis, kidney transplantation, or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <15 mL/min/1.

Objective: To study the subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) transcriptome in people with HIV (PWH) switching efavirenz (EFV) or a protease inhibitor (PI) to raltegravir and to compare the transcriptome of PWH to those of people without HIV (PWoH).
Design: PWH (n = 36) on EFV (n = 22) or a PI (n = 14) based ART regimen were randomized to switch to RAL (n = 15) or to continue unchanged medication (n = 17). PWoH (n = 10), comparable in age and body mass index, were included for comparison.
