Objective: Long-term management of people living with HIV (PLWHs) often relies on CD4 T cell counts for assessing immune recovery, yet a single metric offers limited information. This study aimed to explore the association between the CD4/CD8 ratio and T lymphocyte activities in PLWHs.
Methods: 125 PLWHs and 31 HIV-uninfected controls (UCs) were enrolled and categorized into four groups based on their CD4/CD8 ratios: extremely low ratio (ELR) group: 0.

Background: Specialist cardiac care has been shown to reduce inpatient mortality following non-ST segment myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), but whether this benefit extends beyond index admission is unclear.
Methods: Using the linked Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project (MINAP) registry, and Office for National Statistics mortality recording, we included 425,205 NSTEMI patients admitted to UK hospitals, between January 2005 and March 2019 that survived to discharge. 217,964 (52 %) were admitted to a specialty cardiac ward.

Nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit high reactivity and mobility in the environment, and a significant capacity to penetrate living organisms, potentially leading to harmful effects. Volcanoes are the second major source of natural NPs emitted into the atmosphere, with an estimated flux of 342 Tg/year. Few studies have focused on their fate.

It has been proposed that a childhood in a noisy household might lead to poor language skills and slow development of language areas of the brain. Notably, a direct link between noisy households and language development has not been confirmed. Households might have high levels of noise for a range of reasons, including situational (near a large road intersection or airport), family (large families), and cultural (differences in beliefs surrounding noise in the home, including media use).

While the incidence of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection is decreasing in most age groups worldwide, it is rising among adolescents and young adults, who also face a higher rate of HIV-related deaths. This tech-savvy demographic may benefit from an online patient portal designed to enhance patient activation-empowering them to manage their health independently. However, the effectiveness of such digital health interventions on young HIV patients in Kenya remains uncertain.
