TL;DR: In this article, Antiretroviral therapy that reduces viral replication could limit the transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) in serodiscordant couples.

TL;DR: The early initiation of ART led to a sustained decrease in genetically linked HIV-1 infections in sexual partners, and was associated with a 93% lower risk of linked partner infection than was delayed ART.

TL;DR: The association of early ART and reduced HIV transmission was stronger when the analysis included only linked events, and underscores the importance of assessing the genetic linkage of HIV seroconversion events in HIV prevention studies involving serodiscordant couples.

TL;DR: The authors in this paper reviewed the data presented in the global TB report and discussed the current constraints in global response and emphasized that ending the TB epidemic will require bold leadership, optimization of existing interventions, widespread coverage, addressing social determinants of TB and importantly mobilization of adequate funding required for TB care and prevention.

TL;DR: ARS drugs were detected in follow-up samples from participants who were not receiving study-administered treatment and may be useful in addition to self-report of ARV drug use in some clinical trial settings.
