TL;DR: 5-year follow-up surveillance shows that CRF60_BC gained epidemic importance, spreading among young MSM in multiple Italian regions and increasing its population size in few years, as the number of sequences identified so far has triplicated since the authors' first report.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors retrospectively analyzed observational data on use and outcomes of CAZ-AVI therapy for infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae (KPC-Kp) strains.

TL;DR: Although non‐B subtypes principally infect non‐Italian patients, in Italy they can no longer be considered exclusively restricted to subjects from endemic areas, and social and epidemiological changes are responsible for an increasing circulation of non‐ B subtypes in Italy.

TL;DR: The occurrence of a tropism shift in both directions was independent of HAART use, irrespective of its efficacy, and the CD4 count nadir was the only baseline characteristic able to predict an R5‐to‐X4 viral shift.

TL;DR: This study identifies specific amino acid changes outside V3 which contribute to CTR and extends the analysis to include pure X4 and increasing the sample size to define gp120 variables/changes which should be included in predictive algorithms.
