AIDS is known in Central African Republic since 1983: 64 recognized cases have been registered. AIDS is of endemic aspect presenting the main following signs: lost of weight (100%), degeneration of the health status (80%), lymphadenopathy (46%), pneumopathy (44%), diarrhea (40%), candidiasis (21%), Kaposi's disease (16%), purpura (8%), pruritus (8%), Cutaneous anergy to tuberculin or to the 7 antigens (Merieux test) is constant. LAV serology was positive in 61 cases. The number of helper T. cells is less than 400/mm3, and OKT4/OKT8 ratio is less than 0.50. The concerned population is heterosexual with a sexual hyperactivity.

Islatravir (ISL) is a novel antiretroviral that inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase translocation. The M184V mutation, known to reduce ISL's viral susceptibility in vitro, could arise from prolonged exposure to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) (3TC). This study evaluated the predictive efficacy of ISL and identified potentially active antiretrovirals in combination among treatment-experienced patients in Cameroon, where NRTIs (3TC) have been the backbone of ART for decades now.

Information on circulating HBV (sub-)genotype, variants, and hepatitis D virus (HDV) coinfection, which vary by geographical area, is crucial for the efficient control and management of HBV. We investigated the genomic characteristics of HBV (with a prevalence of 8.1%) and the prevalence of HDV in Nigeria.

Heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV BF) training aids adaptation to new climatic, geographical, and social environments. Neurophysiological changes during the HRV BF in individuals from tropical regions studying in the Arctic are not well understood. The aim of this study was to research electroencephalographic (EEG) changes during a single short-term HRV BF session in Indian and Russian students studying in the Russian Arctic.
