Background: Qi pi pill (QPP), which contains Renshen, Baizhu, Fuling, Gancao, Chenpi, Shanyao, Lianzi, Shanzha, Liushenqu, Maiya, and Zexie, was recommended for preventing and treating COVID-19 in Shandong Province (China). However, the mechanism by which QPP treats infectious diseases remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effect of QPP in vitro and on acute influenza infection in mice, exploring its mechanism of action against influenza A virus (IAV).

Methods: PrEP15-19 is a prospective, multicenter, PrEP demonstration cohort study that includes AMSM and ATGW aged 15-19 in three Brazilian cities.

Background: In Malawi, compared to adults, adolescents have higher rates of high HIV viremia and poorer antiretroviral therapy (ART) outcomes. The Ministry of Health, supported by the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation (EGPAF), implemented the provision of differentiated care clubs for adolescents living with HIV (ALHIV), called "teen clubs," to provide psychosocial support and an HIV care package to improve clinical outcomes. We evaluated teen club attendance and factors associated with unsuppressed viral load (VL) in ALHIV enrolled in these teen clubs.
