Article Abstract
We used viral intersectional tools to map the entire projectome of corticospinal neurons associated with fine distal forelimb control in Fischer 344 rats and rhesus macaques. In rats, we found an extraordinarily diverse set of collateral projections from corticospinal neurons to 23 different brain and spinal regions. Remarkably, the vast weighting of this "motor" projection was to sensory systems in both the brain and spinal cord, confirmed by optogenetic and transsynaptic viral intersectional tools. In contrast, rhesus macaques exhibited far heavier and narrower weighting of corticospinal outputs toward spinal and brainstem motor systems. Thus, corticospinal systems in macaques primarily constitute a final output system for fine motor control, whereas this projection in rats exerts a multi-modal integrative role that accesses far broader CNS regions. Unique structural-functional correlations can be achieved by mapping and quantifying a single neuronal system's total axonal output and its relative weighting across CNS targets.

Introduction: Key populations (KP), including men who have sex with men, people who inject drugs, sex workers, transgender people and people in closed settings, are disproportionately affected by HIV and face structural and legal barriers to care. While community-led responses are central to reaching KP, services are often disease-specific and disconnected from national primary healthcare (PHC) systems. PHC, defined by WHO as a whole-of-society approach to delivering integrated and person-centred services, is rarely designed to meet the broader health needs of KP, who also experience high burdens of non-communicable diseases, mental health conditions and violence.

Refugees, migrants, asylum seekers, and internally displaced persons face significant barriers to healthcare access, particularly dermatologic services. Infectious skin diseases are especially prevalent in these populations due to multiple intersecting risk factors. This systematic review aimed to identify common infectious dermatologic conditions among these populations, their associated risk factors, and implications for clinical and public health management.

Introduction: Cases of spontaneous control of HIV-1 can help define strategies to induce remission. Since the identification of viral control in the absence of treatment typically occurs after a prolonged period post-HIV-1 diagnosis, our knowledge of the early events after HIV-1 acquisition that led to viral control is limited.
Methods: The RV217 prospective cohort enrolled 2276 participants in East Africa (Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania) and Thailand between 2009 and 2015.

The immunological interactions between soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) and herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2), particularly in the context of co-infection, are poorly understood. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) offers a powerful approach to explore these complex immune responses and uncover potential therapeutic targets. This study leveraged NGS and bioinformatic tools to investigate transcriptional changes and immunological pathways in female genital tract (FGT) tissues of BALB/c mice acutely infected with (), HSV-2, or co-infected.
