Predictors of HIV status disclosure among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Ghana: the disclosure conundrum and its policy implications in resource limited settings
CONCLUSIONS: HIV status disclosure remains low in Ghana like many African countries. There is the need for a renewed policy debate on tailored guidelines for HIV status self-disclosure and targeted support systems for PLHIV to ameliorate their predicaments and promote eradication of the epidemic in Africa.PMID:38012668 | PMC:PMC10680271 | DOI:10.1186/s12981-023-00569-1 (Source: AIDS Research and Therapy)

HIV gp120/Tat protein-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition promotes the progression of cervical lesions
CONCLUSIONS: The treatment of SiHa cells with HIV Tat and gp120 proteins induces EMT and activates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, suggesting that the Wnt/β-catenin pathway may play a crucial role in promoting EMT progression in cervical lesion tissues of HIV-infected patients.PMID:37981694 | PMC:PMC10657494 | DOI:10.1186/s12981-023-00577-1 (Source: AIDS Research and Therapy)
