Hand preferences in captive gorillas, orang-utans and gibbons
TL;DR: One possible interpretation for these results correlates the degree of bipedal behavior of a species in its natural environment with its readiness to exhibit a unilateral population‐level hand preference with a bimodal distribution on all tasks.

Signaling through Toll-like receptors triggers HIV-1 replication in latently infected mast cells.
TL;DR: Stimulation by ligands for Toll-like receptor (TLR) 2, TLR4, or TLR9 significantly enhanced viral replication in both HIV-1-infected progenitor and latently infected mature mast cells, without promoting degranulation, apoptosis, cellular proliferation, or dysregulation of TLR agonist-induced cytokine production in infected mast cells.
Human tissue mast cells are an inducible reservoir of persistent HIV infection.

TL;DR: In vivo evidence is provided that HIV-infected women have both circulating prMCs and placental tissue MCs that harbor inducible infectious HIV even after highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) during pregnancy, providing the first in vivo evidence that tissueMCs comprise a long-lived inducibles reservoir of persistent HIV in infected persons during HAART.

Human immunodeficiency virus infection is a risk factor for adverse perinatal outcome.
TL;DR: Parturients in the authors' inner-city hospital who were infected with human immunodeficiency virus are at increased risk for delivery of low-birth-weight and premature infants.

Emerging infectious disease outbreaks: Old lessons and new challenges for obstetrician-gynecologists
TL;DR: All 3 outbreaks highlight the importance of obstetrician-gynecologists keeping current with new information as it emerges, and it is likely that novel disease threats will continue to emerge in the United States.
