The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of training modality and exercise intensity on the modulation of lymphocytes CD4 count in people living with HIV (PLWH). A search for randomised controlled trials was performed using five databases (PubMed/Medline, Cochrane, LILACS, Scielo and CAPES). Meta-analyses of mean differences (MD) were conducted using a random-effects model to compare the effects of training modality and intensity on CD4 count. The CD4 count comparing physical training vs. control group (MD of CD4 was 54.58 cell/ml³ [CI 95% 15.58-93.59], =< 0.01). In according to the subgroup analysis, only aerobic exercise has proved to have a significant effect on CD4 (MD 79.91 cell/ml³ [CI 95% 19.30-140.52], =< 0.01). When exercise intensities were stratified, only intense training proved to have a significant effect on CD4 (MD 64.87 cell/ml³ [CI 95% 15.79-113.95], =< 0.01). In meta-regression analysis showed that the aerobic training, as well, high the intensity training were predictors significant to the improvement of CD4 (=< 0.01). Exercise training is an important strategy to assist in the treatment of PLWH. The aerobic training modality and the high intensity training were able to promote improve the modulation of CD4 count chronically in PLWH.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality on a global scale, with a higher prevalence observed among men. This study investigated the protective effect of vitamin D supplementation on CVD.
Methods: A cohort of thirty mice was divided into three groups: control, T1 diabetic, and T1 diabetic groups that received vitamin D treatment.

Previous reports have indicated that during the era of combination antiretroviral therapy, the major causes of morbidity and mortality in people living with HIV (PLWH) were not solely linked to HIV-related opportunistic infections but also to cancers that were difficult to manage due to HIV-related immunodeficiency. We investigated whether PLWH who underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for lymphomas experienced significant morbidity over the past thirty years following HIV infection. We conducted a retrospective follow-up study of 49 PLWH over a 10-year period following ASCT.

This study analyzes the laboratory characteristics and prognosis of patients between PML-RARα negative APL and PML-RARα positive APL and compares the differences in order to improve the understanding of this rare APL and guide clinical diagnosis and treatment. A total of 81 patients with newly diagnosed APL based on bone marrow cell morphology were included, with 14 in the PML-RARα gene negative group and 67 in the PML-RARα gene positive group. The sex, age, peripheral blood routine test, coagulation related indicators, bone marrow cell morphology, flow cytometric immunophenotype, abnormal chromosome expression and prognosis of the 2 groups were analyzed and compared.

A 58-year-old male, with a history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and stage 4 left frontotemporal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), presented with new-onset neck pain. He was diagnosed with HIV five years prior. The patient had a cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) count of 53 cells/mm³ and a high viral load, later suppressed with bictegravir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir alafenamide (Biktarvy).
