Background: Human Immunodeficiency Virus/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (HIV/AIDS) has become a pandemic that has infected millions of people around the world and brings a tremendous economic burden. There are numerous guidelines for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of HIV/AIDS published in recent years, but the quality of these guidelines is still unknown. Therefore, we conducted this study to evaluate the quality of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of HIV/AIDS published by World Health Organization (WHO) as well as perform a comparison of recommendations between those guidelines. And we also hope our finding could provide suggestions to enhance the quality of future guidelines in this area.
Methods: We obtained guidelines from WHO Guidelines approved by the Guidelines Review Committee (GRC). Two reviewers will independently select eligible guidelines. The quality of included guidelines will be appraised by at least four reviewers through AGREE II and RIGHT tools. The results will be checked for discrepancies. Differences between them than two reviewers will be considered as discrepant and the final discrepancies will be resolved by consensus. The results will be presented in tables and the descriptive statistics will be calculated for all domains of the AGREE II instrument as standard score and median (range) as the reporting quality result of eligible guidelines will also be evaluated through RIGHT criteria. In this study, we will also compare the differences and similarities of recommendations among different guidelines.
Results: The results of this study will increase the knowledge about the development of recommendations guidelines for HIV/AIDS of high methodological rigor and reporting quality. This study may also identify potential limitations for future research in this area.
Conclusion: This study may guide health professionals, policy makers, and health policy managers in choosing the guidelines for recommendation to better to achieve the 90-90-90 targets.

Background And Objectives: IDH-wildtype glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma are challenging to manage in oncology. This study explores the contrast between gross total resection (GTR) and supratotal resection (SupTR) for IDH-wildtype GBM and grade 4 IDH-mutant astrocytoma, aiming to summarize their influence on crucial clinical outcomes.
Methods: This systematic review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines.

Accurately calculating the diradical character () of molecular systems remains a significant challenge due to the scarcity of experimental data and the inherent multireference nature of the electronic structure. In this study, various quantum mechanical approaches, including broken symmetry density functional theory (BS-DFT), spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (SF-TDDFT), mixed-reference spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (MRSF-TDDFT), complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF), complete active space second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2), and multiconfigurational pair-density functional theory (MCPDFT), are employed to compute the singlet-triplet energy gaps () and values in Thiele, Chichibabin, and Müller analogous diradicals. By systematically comparing the results from these computational methods, we identify optimally tuned long-range corrected functional CAM-B3LYP in the BS-DFT framework as a most efficient method for accurately and affordably predicting both and values.

The presence of hypothermia among young infants in the emergency department may be a sign of serious or invasive bacterial infections, or invasive herpes simplex viral infection. However, hypothermia may also occur due to a variety of other infectious and noninfectious conditions or environmental exposure. In some settings, hypothermia may represent a protective, energy-conserving response to illness.
