Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a retrovirus that preferentially targets CD4+ T lymphocytes, driving chronic immune activation, CD4+ depletion, and heightened vulnerability of people living with it (PLWH) to opportunistic infections and certain malignancies. Early, guideline-concordant primary care engagement is essential to mitigate these risks and optimize long-term outcomes. Contemporary antiretroviral therapy (ART) recommendations from major panels provide multiple highly effective, well-tolerated options that enable durable viral suppression when initiated promptly and supported over time.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) comprises five etiologic groups; Group I, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is a precapillary entity defined hemodynamically by right‑heart catheterization: mean pulmonary artery pressure >20 mm Hg, pulmonary artery wedge pressure ≤15 mm Hg, and pulmonary vascular resistance ≥3 Wood units. PAH is uncommon but consequential; estimates place U.S. prevalence near 10.6 per million, with contemporary data showing rarity yet meaningful population burden. Sex differences are notable—women predominate, while men may experience more severe trajectories—underscoring the need for sex‑aware assessment. Multinational reviews suggest incidence and prevalence remain non‑trivial, with enduring morbidity and mortality despite therapeutic gains.

In this brief 15-minute activity, you will:

– Follow the case of a patient who presents with foot drop and no other medical conditions
– Choose optimal management approaches by answering nongraded questions within the activity (answers are collected for informational purposes only and used to assess the effectiveness of this educational activity)
– See how your answers compare with those of your peers
– View video clips providing expert insights

In this 15-minute activity, meet 2 patients with arm pain, one of whom also presents with neck pain. How would you manage these patients? This accredited activity uses an interactive, quiz-driven microlearning format to explore clinical case scenarios with targeted questions, allowing clinicians to quickly assess their knowledge. Clinicians can compare their responses with those of their peers and receive expert guidance through video commentary.

This accredited activity reviews advancements in lung transplant surgery, with a focus on robotic lung transplant and ex vivo lung perfusion.

Thalassemias belong to a group of recessively inherited blood disorders characterized by little or no hemoglobin production and chronic anemia of varying severity. Alpha thalassemia (AT) is most commonly found in people of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Asian, and North African descent. Worldwide, 5% of people are AT carriers, with a much higher prevalence in certain regions (e.g., up to 23% in Southeast Asia). AT is typically caused by deletions of one or more α-globin genes, leading to reduced or abolished α-globin production; non-deletional forms of AT can also occur and are generally more severe. The loss of functional α-globin disrupts the globin chain equilibrium, leading to excess γ- and β-globin chain formation and causing ineffective erythropoiesis. Patients with both deletional and non-deletional types of AT can develop various clinical complications, such as iron overload, gallstones, impaired liver function, osteoporosis, and elevated uric acid levels. Cardiopulmonary and skeletal deformities are common in patients from countries in the Western hemisphere who have elevated ferritin, while infections are the leading complication and cause of death in patients who live in countries in the Eastern hemisphere and have transfusion-dependent thalassemia.

Hemophilia is a genetic disease caused by mutation of one of the genes for coagulation proteins leading to dangerous, uncontrolled bleeding. In hemophilia B, a mutation in the gene for factor IX (FIX) leads to an endogenous deficiency in the clotting factor. The incidence of hemophilia B is the same across race and ethnic groups, affecting approximately 1 out of every 30,000 male births.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a disease in which leukemic cells accumulate in the peripheral blood, bone marrow, and lymphatic tissue. Elderly patients comprise the vast majority of those diagnosed with CLL with a mean patient age of 72 years. There are over 23,000 cases in the U.S. per year, with an annual mortality rate in excess of 4,400. CLL may have an indolent disease course and go undetected for some time. Patients may present clinically with a range of constitutional symptoms usually range from lymphadenopathy (the most common), night sweats, weight loss, weakness, and fever. Staging systems take into account a variety of factors, including lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, hepatomegaly, and the presence and severity of cytopenias, while a patient’s prognosis is impacted by cytogenetic abnormalities and earlier progression of disease. Both the presentation and progression of CLL vary between patients, although patients with very-high-risk disease have a median survival of 19 months and a five-year overall survival of less than 24%.
