TL;DR: In this article, the cumulative cancer incidence by age 75 years and calendar trends in cumulative incidence and hazard rates were determined after examination of cumulative cancer and hazard data for persons with HIV.

TL;DR: VACS index scores discriminate risk and translate into accurate mortality estimates over 1–5 years of exposure to ART and for diverse patient subgroups from North American.

TL;DR: Free glycogen is detected in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women and correlates with Lactobacillus in both groups, suggesting the complexity of the relationship between menopause and vaginal microbiota and indicating that more careful studies of the role of glycogen are warranted.

TL;DR: Collaborative study designs that combine individual-level data from multiple independent contributing studies (ICSs) are becoming much more common due to their many advantages: increased statistical power through large sample sizes; increased ability to investigate effect heterogeneity due to diversity of participants; cost-efficiency through capitalizing on existing data; and ability to foster cooperative research and training of junior investigators.
