TL;DR: The causes and management of nongonococcal urethritis wereoroughly discussed, however, they did not emphasize the link between treatment of sexually transmitted diseases and prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

TL;DR: Three adult males in two kindreds with a unique form of X-linked cytochrome b558-deficient (X91-) CGD not previously reported are described, showing the presence of a small but significant population of circulating neutrophils and monocytes with completely normal respiratory burst activity as assessed by nitroblue tetrazolium reduction and flow-cytometric measurement of dihydrorhodamine oxidation.

TL;DR: In cases of persistent neutrophilic meningitis, epidemiologic features and clinical setting frequently offer clues to the etiologic agent, especially in the immunocompromised host, consideration should be given to the empiric use of amphotericin B with or without a sulfonamide in undiagnosed cases that manifest progressive clinical deterioration.

TL;DR: In vivo treatment with an antibody to the gut-homing integrin α4β7 was shown to reduce viral transmission, delay disease progression, and induce persistent virus control in macaques challenged with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV).

TL;DR: The PANGEA-HIV consortium is an international partnership to use viral sequence analyses to assess the transmission of HIV in Africa and aims to direct the development of phylogenetic methods to address key challenges and opportunities in measuring, understanding and controlling HIV transmission in generalized epidemics.
