⚡️New preprint (not peer-reviewed)⚡️

In the SaDAPT trial with people with #HIV and #tuberculosis symptoms in 🇲🇼🇱🇸, we investigated if antiretroviral therapy should be initiated immediately, or delayed until TB results available. ssrn.com/abstract=523...

Outcomes (incl. IRIS) similar across both arms.

Can't believe the EMPIRICAL study showing reduced MORTALITY in kids with pneumonia given valganciclovir didn't get an oral! Come on #IAS2025. This is a VERY important finding.

Jayne Ellis presenting data from our cohort with CD4 <100 undergoing CrAg screening in SA at #IAS2025 (poster 2803)

59% (86/146) had CMV viraemia - strongly & independently associated with ⬆️mortality, more than quadrupling odds of death at 6-months (adjusted OR 4.02, 95%CI 1.27-12.7)
