TL;DR: This document summarizes current knowledge about three-dimensional AIDS, congenital heart disease, cardiac device-related infective endocarditis, and cardiac implantable electronic device in the context of acquired immune deficiency syndrome.

TL;DR: In the early 21st century, IE is more often an acute disease, characterized by a high rate of S aureus infection, and Mortality remains relatively high.

TL;DR: Using a whole-genome association strategy, polymorphisms that explain nearly 15% of the variation among individuals in viral load during the asymptomatic set-point period of infection are identified.

TL;DR: Characteristics of patients with S aureus IE vary significantly by region, and further studies are required to determine the causes of regional variation.

TL;DR: In this article, the CD4 cell count at which combination antiretroviral therapy should be started is examined in the absence of randomised trials in prospective cohort studies, and the effect of deferred initiation of combination therapy with immediate initiation on rates of AIDS and death, and on death alone, in adjacent CD4 cells ranges of width 100 cells per microL.
