TL;DR: It is found that both myeloid DC and plasmacytoid DC levels decline very early during acute HIV infection, which implicates a possible role for DCs in promoting chronic immune activation.

TL;DR: Bathhouse-based testing for HIV infection can be implemented in New York City and would include a population of MSM who are at high risk for HIV infections, which may be a good strategy to reduce the forward transmission of HIV in this highly sexually active population.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a unifying mechanism for this variation is differences in constitutive and T-cell activation-induced DNA methylation status of CCR5 cis-regulatory regions (cis-regions), which is a central epigenetic determinant of T- cell C CR5 levels, and possibly HIV-related outcomes.

TL;DR: Community education of at-risk groups, with the goal of increased self-diagnosis of possible acute HIV infection, may be a useful addition to traditional efforts to identify such individuals.

TL;DR: Results show that some patients who experience treatment failure can demonstrate durable virologic and immunologic responses with salvage antiretroviral regimens.
