Clinical leaders, health experts and ministers convene in Downing Street for NHS Recovery Forum

Clinical leaders, health experts and ministers will convene in Downing Street for an NHS Recovery Forum today (Saturday 7 January).

Does the immunization order of vaccine types influence the efficacy of heterologous prime-boost vaccination, especially mRNA and protein-based vaccines?

A new study aimed to analyze whether the order of immunization of vaccine types impacted the efficacy of a heterologous prime-boost vaccination strategy.

People with latent tuberculosis infection could be at a higher risk for cardiovascular disease

Newly published research from the University of Cincinnati finds that people with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) have more inflammation and could be at a higher risk for cardiovascular disease.

The risk factors and outcomes of ARDS following infection with SARS-CoV-2 in a young adult population

Researchers evaluated the outcomes and identified risk factors associated with the development of ARDS after SARS-CoV-2 infections among young adults.

New machine learning tool can shed light on chronic COVID symptoms

Long COVID has emerged as a pandemic within the pandemic. As scientists work to untangle the many remaining unanswered questions about how the initial infection impacts the body, they must now also investigate why some people develop debilitating, chronic symptoms that last months to years longer.

Recently discovered protein holds potential for the development of new tests for infectious diseases

In a first for the genetic toolset known as CRISPR, a recently discovered protein has been found to act as a kind of multipurpose self-destruct system for bacteria, capable of degrading single-stranded RNA, single-stranded DNA and double-stranded DNA.

Study shows the potential of a game-changing drug to treat upper urinary tract urothelial cancers

A team from 15 U.S. medical centers led by UT Southwestern Simmons Cancer Center researchers has performed the first analysis of a potentially game-changing drug to treat upper urinary tract urothelial cancers.

4 Jan 2023

Study demonstrates safety and efficacy of a three-dose whole-parasite vaccine against malaria

A three-dose regimen of a whole-parasite vaccine against malaria – called Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite (PfSPZ) vaccine – demonstrated safety and efficacy when tested in adults living in Burkina Faso, West Africa, which has endemic malaria.

Public health agencies try to restore trust as they fight misinformation

By the summer of 2021, Phil Maytubby, deputy CEO of the health department here, was concerned to see the numbers of people getting vaccinated against covid-19 slipping after an initially robust response.

4 Jan 2023

Subtle variations in every day cognitive performance associated with susceptibility to viral illness

If your alertness and reaction time is see-sawing more than usual, you may be more at risk of a viral illness.

3 Jan 2023

Analyzing electronic medical records to identify COVID-19 sequelae

In a recent study published in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases, researchers analyzed and compared pre‒ and post‒COVID-19 diagnostic codes to identify symptoms that had higher encounter incidence in the post‒COVID-19 period as sequelae. COVID-19 sequelae and future emerging diseases can be generated and monitored using this method.

3 Jan 2023

Cardiac MRI of individuals with acute or post-acute COVID-19

In a recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, researchers in Italy reported cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings in individuals with myocarditis-like syndrome during the acute phase of SARS-CoV-2 infection (AMCovS) and post-acute phase (cPACS).

Bacterial outer membrane vesicles: utility as vaccines and novel engineering approaches

Scientists have described the utility of gram-negative bacteria-derived outer membrane vesicles as vaccines and methods to expand their applications.

Effects of hybrid immunity on humoral immune response following COVID mRNA vaccination in a cohort of essential and frontline workers

Researchers longitudinally evaluated humoral immune responses to the second and third doses of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines among individuals with and without prior history of SARS-CoV-2 infections.

3 Jan 2023

Underlying genetic cause for MIS-C complications after COVID-19 identified

A recent Science journal study determined the underlying cause of MIS-C related to SARS-CoV-2 in some children. It hypothesized that monogenic inborn errors of immunity (IEI) is the primary reason for this condition. Identifying these inborn errors is expected to help elucidate the disease's cellular, molecular, and immunological basis.

2 Jan 2023

COVID-19 prevention and control measures associated with decrease in influenza activity

A recent study provides preliminary evidence of the long-term relationship between prevention and control measures and influenza transmission in China during the COVID-19 pandemic, accounting for the impact under various prevention and control levels. This study, the first of its kind, was published in Health Data Science, a Science Partner Journal.
