The Impact of Surgery Delay on Early-Stage Ovarian Cancer by Dimitrios Zouzoulas, Dimitrios Tsolakidis, Iliana Sofianou, Tilemachos Karalis, Michalis Aristotelidis, Panagiotis Tzitzis, Evangelia Deligeoroglou, Maria Topalidou, Eleni Timotheadou, Grigoris Grimbizis

“…The primary aim of this study was to investigate the impact of surgery delay on the oncological results of early-stage ovarian cancer patients. (2) Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the records of early-stage OC patients who underwent surgery in the 1st Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology from 2012 to 2019. Time to surgery was defined as the time interval from the day of first examination to the day of surgery. (3) Results: A total of 72 patients were categorized into two groups, with a cut-off point of 5 weeks: 32 were treated ≤ 5 weeks (group A), and 40 > 5 weeks (group B). …”

Early antiretroviral therapy in SIV-infected rhesus macaques reveals a multiphasic, saturable dynamic accumulation of the rebound competent viral reservoir. by Brandon F Keele, Afam A Okoye, Christine M Fennessey, Benjamin Varco-Merth, Taina T Immonen, Emek Kose, Andrew Conchas, Mykola Pinkevych, Leslie Lipkey, Laura Newman, Agatha Macairan, Marjorie Bosche, William J Bosche, Brian Berkemeier, Randy Fast, Mike Hull, Kelli Oswald, Rebecca Shoemaker, Lorna Silipino, Robert J Gorelick, Derick Duell, Alejandra Marenco, William Brantley, Jeremy Smedley, Michael Axthelm, Miles P Davenport, Jeffrey D Lifson, Louis J Picker

“…The rebound competent viral reservoir (RCVR)-virus that persists during antiretroviral treatment (ART) and can reignite systemic infection when treatment is stopped-is the primary barrier to eradicating HIV. We used time to initiation of ART during primary infection of rhesus macaques (RMs) after intravenous challenge with barcoded SIVmac239 as a means to elucidate the dynamics of RCVR establishment in groups of RMs by creating a multi-log range of pre-ART viral loads and then assessed viral time-to-rebound and reactivation rates resulting from the discontinuation of ART after one year. …”
