The effect of statins on the risk of anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury among patients with active tuberculosis: A cohort study
CONCLUSION: Statin treatment had a protective effect against the risk of anti-TB DILI with a positive dose-response relationship.PMID:38632021 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2024.04.002 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)

Complete response to front-line therapies is associated with long-term survival in HIV-related lymphomas in Taiwan
CONCLUSIONS: PLWH with DLBCL or BL had OS rates compatible to patients without HIV infection. Better outcomes for patients achieving CR to front-line therapy and those with shorter cART duration before lymphoma diagnosis suggest an underlying biological distinction in the lymphomas and the involvement of immunity, which warrants further studies.PMID:38632022 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2024.04.001 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)

Epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Enterobacterales causing bloodstream infections before and during COVID-19 pandemic: Results of the Study for Monitoring Antimicrobial Resistance Trends (SMART) in Taiwan, 2018-2021
CONCLUSIONS: The COVID-19 pandemic appears to be associated with a general decrease in antimicrobial susceptibility rates among Enterobacterales causing BSIs in Taiwan. Continuous surveillance is crucial to monitor antimicrobial resistance during the pandemic and in the future.PMID:38632023 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2024.04.004 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)

Influenza and the risk of active tuberculosis occurrence among individuals with latent tuberculosis infection: A national cohort study in South Korea (2015-2020)
CONCLUSIONS: In individuals with LTBI not receiving TPT, experiencing an influenza episode may elevate the risk of developing active TB.PMID:38627123 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2024.04.003 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)

Revisiting the association between vitamin D deficiency and active tuberculosis: A prospective case-control study in Taiwan
CONCLUSIONS: VDD is an independent risk factor for incident active TB. Future randomized trials examining the effect of vitamin D supplementation on TB incidence should focus on people with a low BMI or other risk factors to maximize the statistical power.PMID:38594108 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2024.03.005 (Source: Journal of Microbiology, Immunology, and Infection)
