<h4>Background</h4>Type 1 myocardial infarctions (T1MIs) result from atherosclerotic plaque instability, rupture, and/or erosion. Type 2 MIs (T2MIs) are secondary to causes such as sepsis and cocaine-induced vasospasm resulting in an oxygen demand-supply mismatch and are associated with higher mortality than T1MIs. T2MIs account for a higher proportion of MIs among ... Read more >>

Antiretroviral therapies (ART) abrogate HIV replication; however, infection persists as long-lived reservoirs of infected cells with integrated proviruses, which re-seed replication if ART is interrupted. A central tenet of our current understanding of this persistence is that infected cells are shielded from immune recognition and elimination through a lack of ... Read more >>

<h4>Background</h4>The replication-competent HIV reservoir is the major barrier to cure. The quantitative viral outgrowth assay (QVOA), the gold-standard method to quantify replication competent HIV, is resource-intensive which limits its application in large clinical trials.

<h4>Background</h4>Persistent HIV infection of long-lived resting CD4 T cells, despite antiretroviral therapy (ART), remains a barrier to HIV cure.
