Virologic Failure in HIV - An Updated Clinician’s Guide to Assessment and Management

MD Rockstroh, MD Wohl

Beschreibung

Though the prevalence of virologic failure (VF) in patients with HIV has decreased as newer antiretroviral (ART) regimens with higher genetic barriers to resistance and reduced toxicity have been approved, VF can still occur. VF may be due to patient, viral, or ART factors, and it is critical that clinicians determine the underlying cause before switching ART regimens so they can work with the patient to select the most appropriate regimen. Resistance will affect selection of subsequent regimens for patients experiencing VF, particularly among those with multidrug resistance (MDR). All patients experiencing VF should undergo resistance testing, and clinicians should engage in shared decision-making when selecting ART regimens, to ensure the patient can be adherent.  
 
Heavily treatment-experienced (HTE) patients with MDR have had few options specifically designed to supplement an optimized background regimen, but these options have expanded over the last several years, and there is hope that this small subset of patients will have even more options in the future. In this eHealth activity, Drs David Wohl and Jürgen Rockstroh discuss evaluation of VF, selection of subsequent regimens for patients experiencing VF, and recently approved and emerging options for HTE patients,  including how to create and simplify salvage regimens for these patients.

Potty Training - Strategies for...

Stacey Wilmore

Potty training is a significant milestone in a toddler’s development, marking their transition from diapers to greater independence. While every child’s journey is unique, the process requires patience, consistency, and a positive approach. Parents and caregivers play a crucial role in guiding their little ones through this stage, offering encouragement and support as they navigate the challenges and triumphs of potty training. Understanding the fundamentals and setting realistic expectations can make the experience smoother for both the child and the caregiver.
One of the most important aspects of potty training is recognizing that there is no universal timeline. Some children show readiness earlier than others, and the process can take weeks or even months. External factors such as personality, developmental stage, and family dynamics influence how quickly a child adapts. While some toddlers may grasp the concept almost immediately, others may need more time to build confidence and routine. Parents should remain patient and flexible, avoiding comparisons with other children to reduce unnecessary pressure.
Equally important is establishing a positive potty training environment. Children respond best to encouragement rather than pressure, and creating a stress-free atmosphere can make all the difference. Using praise, rewards, and fun routines can help children associate potty training with a sense of accomplishment rather than frustration. Additionally, parents should approach setbacks as natural parts of the learning process rather than failures. Accidents will happen, and handling them with reassurance rather than disappointment fosters a child’s confidence.

The Serpent and the Serpent Slayer

Andrew David Naselli

“I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.”  ―Genesis 3:15 We’ve all heard this story: the hero fights a dragon in an epic battle, and just as it appears the dragon is going to prevail, the hero saves the day. Best-selling novels and blockbuster movies are filled with this type of story, but did you know that this is the main theme of the Bible too?  Tracing the theme of serpents and dragons through both Testaments, trusted scholar Andrew David Naselli demonstrates that these stories reflect our desire to know the ultimate story―the struggle between God’s offspring and the offspring of the serpent. As we come to experience this captivating, unifying narrative, we will rejoice in the ultimate victory of Jesus―the serpent slayer―over the devouring dragon in Revelation.
