Elsevier Health is launching an ambitious initiative called “The Year of the Zebra” to educate millions of current and future healthcare professionals, caregivers, researchers, patients, family members, and the general public about rare disorders.
Due to multiple cellular blocks in transcription, HIV-1 latency can only be reversed in a minor fraction of infected but potentially virus-producing CD4+ T cells from infected patients. New insights into the regulation of transcription elongation factor P-TEFb as a crucial rate-limiting step in the emergence of HIV-1 from latency may help design more effective latency reversal agents during HIV-1 infection.

Measured thoracic levels and distances on axial CT images
Background: In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), thoracic morphology and its role in respiratory function is conditioned by anthropometric factors, as well as by pathological changes. While the lungs are continuously monitored, examinations of potential thoracic cage adaptations to the disease are rare. Hence, the aim of this study was to investigate thoracic configuration, and its correlation to spirometry measures over time. Methods: In total, 344 high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) examinations from 90 patients were assessed and analysed. Those results were subsequently related to spirometry measurements performed within the same period. Results: The cohort displayed no homogenous change in thoracic configuration over time, and correlation between thoracic area and spirometry variables could not be supported statistically. Conclusions: Although the current study included a larger cohort of patients with CF compared to previous studies on thoracic morphology, no patient group-specific changes in thoracic configuration were revealed. Furthermore, no correlations between structural findings and functional respiratory measurements were found.
This article ties to SDG 3. Analyzing relations among neuronal, endocrine, immune, and biochemical signatures of trauma and internalizing and externalizing behaviors, including the role of personality traits in shaping these conducts, this review highlights that the marked effects of traumatic experience on the brain/body involve changes at nearly every level of analysis, from brain structure, function and connectivity to endocrine and immune systems, from gene expression (including in the gut) to the development of personality.
