Patients with HIV have a proclivity to develop liver fibrosis, especially when associated with other conditions such as HCV, HBV, and NAFLD. Identifying HIV-infected patients with significant fibrosis or cirrhosis plays an important role in clinical and therapeutic decision-making.

miR‐122 is the predominant liver miRNA that regulates hepatic lipid metabolism and inflammation. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) modulates host intracellular lipid metabolism. HCV stability and propagation also depend on an interaction between virus and miR‐122. Our aims were to examine the associations between miR‐122, apolipoproteins, and serum makers of fibrosis in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients. We...
Balloon catheter dilation of diseased sinus ostia has recently demonstrated efficacy and safety in the treatment of chronic sinus disease with 2 years of follow-up. Similar to sinus surgery, initial studies of partial resection of inflamed mucosa from within the cartilaginous eustachian tube (ET) have demonstrated efficacy and safety in the treatment of medically refractory otitis media with effusion...
