Studies in both the UK and the USA continue to show that gay and bisexual men put themselves at risk of exposure to HIV through unprotected intercourse, most often with regular partners. As part of a larger study of homosexually active men, 310 men who had had unprotected anal intercourse with a man in the previous year were asked to describe the last occasion on which this had happened. The majority of men had had unprotected intercourse with a regular partner and did not perceived it as risky, although most did not know the HIV status of their partner. Regular and non-regular partners were perceived differently. Men were more likely to be emotionally involved in regular partners and to perceive unprotected penetrative sex with a regular partner as not risky. Future health education initiatives must take into account men's emotional involvement in regular partners and their perception of unprotected intercourse with such partners as not risky.

Diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor is a newly defined entity under the neuronal and mixed neuronal-glial tumors category in the 2016 World Health Organization classification of brain tumors. In this series, we report clinical, radiologic, and histologic findings in 7 cases of diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor. Our cases and literature review indicate that the most characteristic imaging finding is diffuse intracranial and intraspinal nodular leptomeningeal thickening and enhancement. This is often associated with small cyst-like, nonenhancing lesions. It should be noted that tumors sometimes bear nontypical features, for example, presenting as a solitary spinal cord mass without leptomeningeal involvement or with a dominant intracranial mass. In children with characteristic imaging findings and without clinical features of infection, the radiologist has an opportunity to promptly raise the possibility of diffuse leptomeningeal glioneuronal tumor, and thereby, affect streamlined diagnostic evaluation.

Conventional MR imaging techniques are sensitive to pathologic changes of the brain and spinal cord seen in MS, but they lack specificity for underlying axonal and myelin integrity. By isolating the signal contribution from different tissue compartments, newly developed advanced multicompartment diffusion MR imaging models have the potential to detect specific tissue subtypes and associated injuries with increased pathologic specificity. These models include neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging, diffusion basis spectrum imaging, multicompartment microscopic diffusion MR imaging with the spherical mean technique, and models enabled through high-gradient diffusion MR imaging. In this review, we provide an appraisal of the current literature on the physics principles, histopathologic validation, and clinical applications of each of these techniques in both brains and spinal cords of patients with MS. We discuss limitations of each of the methods and directions that future research could take to provide additional validation of their roles as biomarkers of axonal and myelin injury in MS.
