Virus-specific T-cell therapy for prophylaxis and treatment of cytomegalovirus infections after transplantation: a scoping review
J S T Fung and others
Cytomegalovirus-specific T-cells have been used in studies of primarily adult hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients. Heterogenous trial design and data reporting make interpretation and clinical translation challenging. Standardization of study design and reporting are needed to address important knowledge gaps.
Sustained Effectiveness of Doxycycline Post-Exposure-Prophylaxis in a Large Sexual Health Clinic over 96 Weeks: An Interrupted Time Series Analysis
Matthew A Spinelli and others
Doxycycline post-exposure prophylaxis (doxy-PEP) reduced bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) incidence in a sexual health clinic over 96 weeks (n=4,592; 2,524 on doxy-PEP), particularly for chlamydia and syphilis, with smaller effects for gonorrhea. Continued surveillance for gonorrhea and antibiotic resistance ...
The Impact of Pregnancy on Tuberculosis Treatment Outcomes: An Analysis of Brazilian National Surveillance Data 2016-2022
Silvia S Chiang and others
Background Over 200,000 pregnant people fall ill with tuberculosis (TB) annually. Little is known about the impact of pregnancy on TB outcomes. Methods This study used surveillance data from Brazil’s Ministry of Health. We included women 11-49 years old newly diagnosed with drug-susceptible TB disease between 2016-2022, ...
HIV RNA testing to monitor oral PrEP use does not add clinical value: a real-world cohort study—United States, 2019-2023
Weiming Zhu and others
Among a real-world cohort of oral PrEP users, HIV RNA testing increased after 2021 the CDC PrEP guideline update. However, RNA testing did not result in earlier HIV diagnoses for oral PrEP during follow-up compared with antigen/antibody testing alone.
Kaposi Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus Risk and Disease in Kidney Donors and Transplant Recipients with HIV in the United States
Puja Nambiar and others
The prevalence of Kaposi Sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) was high among kidney donor and transplant recipients with HIV. Post-transplant KSHV-associated disease incidence was similar to that observed in endemic countries but disease was generally mild and attributed to recipient KSHV.

Executive Summary of State-of-the-Art Review: Modern Approach to Nocardiosis—Diagnosis, Management, and Uncertainties
Zachary A Yetmar and others
Nocardia is a genus of gram-positive, partially acid-fast bacilli that typically infect people with chronic lung disease or immunocompromised states. Nocardia most commonly affects the lungs or skin but has the potential to disseminate to essentially any anatomic site, such as the brain. Due to variability in ...
State-of-the-Art Review: Modern Approach to Nocardiosis—Diagnosis, Management, and Uncertainties
Zachary A Yetmar and others
Nocardiosis is an uncommon yet potentially devastating infection. Nocardia tends to affect individuals with chronic lung disease or immunocompromising conditions, 2 groups increasing in number. Incidence of nocardiosis is likely to increase as well, and it is vital to have an approach to this complex disease. Here, we aim ...
Real-Time Genomic Surveillance for Enhanced Healthcare Outbreak Detection and Control: Clinical and Economic Impact
Alexander J Sundermann and others
Real-time bacterial genomic surveillance detected and halted healthcare-associated outbreaks, preventing 62 infections and 4.8 deaths over two years, with a 3.2-fold return on investment, demonstrating its effectiveness as a routine infection prevention and control strategy.
Transmitted Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1) Drug Resistance Among Newly Diagnosed Individuals in 31 Provincial-Level Administrative Divisions in China in 2023: A Cross-sectional Survey
Jingjing Hao and others
This study elaborates on transmitted drug resistance (TDR) among antiretroviral therapy–naive people newly diagnosed with HIV in China. It was found that the TDR among people with newly diagnosed HIV exceeds 10%, notably with TDR of >5% to efavirenz/nevirapine.
