Many observational studies in medical literature support the overall benefits of vitamin D supplementation. However, whether this is actually true is the subject of a renewed debate, particularly in muscle health.

In this fifth update to the living guidelines on drugs for the treatment of COVID-19, the World Health Organization analyzed results of clinical trials that assessed the effects of casirivimab-imdevimab and corticosteroids in patients with severe and non-severe disease.

Investigators conducted a study that compared the risk for intubation or death with convalescent plasma vs standard care for the treatment of patients hospitalized with COVID-19.

Researchers assessed and compared 3 tests for latent tuberculosis infection among high-risk individuals in the US.

Investigators conducted a study to assess immune responses among individuals vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2 infection with low-dose mRNA-1273.

Researchers conducted a study that compared virologic suppression, lipid control, and safety profiles of patients with HIV infection who switch from ritonavir-boosted darunavir to doravirine (DOR) therapy vs those who continued DOR therapy.

Researchers conducted a study that included patients with HIV infection who previously achieved virologic suppression to compare the risk for virologic failure among those who switch to a single-tablet 2-drug regimen vs those who switch to a single-tablet 3-drug regimen.

Researchers conducted a study to determine whether there is an association between increased adherence to HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis with daily emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and a decreased risk for incident HIV infection.

Researchers conducted a study to assess the pharmacokinetics of a long-acting formulation of rilpivirine for the treatment of patients with HIV infection.

Researchers conducted a study to determine the factors associated with increased incident rates of infection-related cancers among adolescents and young adults with HIV infection.
