Substantial SARS-CoV-2 infection in perivascular cells of inflamed blood vessels

A new study demonstrated that vascular inflammation leads to heightened SARS-CoV-2 infection in perivascular cells.

Study finds higher risk of thrombotic events after SARS-CoV-2 infection

A study from Sweden published by The BMJ today finds an increased risk of deep vein thrombosis (a blood clot in the leg) up to three months after covid-19 infection, pulmonary embolism (a blood clot in the lung) up to six months, and a bleeding event up to two months.

Evaluating immunogenicity after BNT162b2 booster vaccination

Researchers assessed the levels of IgG and IgA antibodies in sera samples from healthcare workers before vaccination, after the first vaccine dose, after eight months, and after a booster shot.

New laws let visitors see loved ones in health care facilities, even in an outbreak

Jean White’s mother has dementia and moved into a memory care facility near Tampa, Florida, just as coronavirus lockdowns began in spring 2020. For months, the family wasn’t allowed to go inside to visit.

Role of natural immunity to SARS-CoV-2 on post-vaccination antibody responses in staff and residents of long-term care facilities

A new study collected and analyzed sera from the staff at a local long-term care facility from August to December 2020, where an outbreak occurred in September 2020.

Collaborative modeling attempts could improve response to the COVID-19 pandemic

Researchers retrospectively analyzed a collaborative modeling attempt for guiding public health decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic.

8 Apr 2022

Improved seroprevalence and antibody response after third COVID-19 vaccination

Researchers evaluated the immunogenicity of a third COVID-19 vaccination in antibody deficient subjects.

8 Apr 2022

Neutralization potency against the Omicron variant of naturally expressed MBC-derived IgG antibodies from vaccinated individuals

Researchers have shown how the Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 successfully evaded a large fraction of antibodies derived from memory B cells, giving rise to a reduced, but incomplete immune escape.

Exploring SARS-CoV-2 detection by profiling micro RNAs

A new study analyzed the micro ribonucleic acid profiles in nasal swabs collected from COVID-19 patients.

Yale researchers discover immune response pathway that leads to severe COVID-19

Yale researchers have identified a particular immune response pathway that leads to severe illness and death in people infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

Scientists are searching for the ‘perfect protein’ to develop mRNA-based malaria vaccine

After the success of mRNA vaccines against COVID-19, scientists are cautiously optimistic that the same technology can be used to tackle other widespread diseases such as malaria.

Study on the viral dynamics of Omicron and Delta infected individuals

Researchers examine the infectious periods in vaccinated individuals infected with the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron and Delta variants.

7 Apr 2022

SARS-CoV-2 detected using smartphone biosensor

Researchers describe the use of RT-LAMP in combination with particle diffusometry to detect SARS-CoV2 in saliva samples.

7 Apr 2022

'Friend-shield effect' could increase a false sense of safety and contribute to COVID-19 infections

People may feel less vulnerable and take fewer safety precautions about COVID-19 when they are with, or even just think about, their friends instead of acquaintances or strangers, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.

7 Apr 2022

COVID-19 could change the levels of proteins related to male reproductive function

Many people who recover from COVID-19 experience long-term symptoms, such as brain fog or heart problems. Increasing evidence suggests that the virus can also impair fertility.

Researchers develop universal AI algorithm to "clean" noisy single-cell RNA sequencing data

Just as asking a single person about their health will provide tailored, personalized information impossible to glean from a large poll, an individual cell's genome or transcriptome can provide much more information about their place in living systems than sequencing a whole batch of cells.
