Spatial overlap links seemingly unconnected genotype-matched TB cases in rural Uganda.

TL;DR: Links between MTB genotype-matched cases were only identifiable via shared locations, healthcare locations in particular, rather than named contacts, which suggests most transmission is occurring between casual contacts, and emphasizes the need for improved infection control in healthcare settings in rural Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Model of Asymptomatic Plasmodium Parasitemia That Recapitulates Elements of the Human Immune Response to Chronic Infection

TL;DR: An animal model of asymptomatic, persistent Plasmodium infection that recapitulates several central aspects of the immune response in chronically exposed humans is established and provides a novel tool for dissection of immune responses that may prevent development of sterilizing immunity and limit pathology during infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free Antiretrovirals Must Not Be Restricted Only to Treatment-Naive Patients

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explain the rationale for restricting free access to treatment-naive patients, and then outline the reasons why such restriction is highly problematic, and explain why patients who are already in privately provided and privately paid ART should be encouraged to remain in this situation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations between Malaria-Preventive Regimens and Plasmodium falciparum Drug Resistance-Mediating Polymorphisms in Ugandan Pregnant Women.

TL;DR: Use of IPTP in Uganda selected for parasites with mutations associated with decreased susceptibility to IPTp regimens, a potential drawback of IPtp is selection of parasites with decreased drug susceptibility.

8th IAS Conference on HIV Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention (IAS 2015).

TL;DR: This work sought to determine whether xenograft of leukocytes from HIV‐1 infected patients with undetectable plasma viral loads into severely immunocompromised mice would result in viral amplification and measurable viral loads within the aberrant murine host.
