Viral short RNAs detected in SARS-CoV-2 RNA transcriptome

Researchers analyzed the ribonucleic acid (RNA) transcriptome associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and SARS-CoV-1-infected human cells.

What is the global state of SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence in children?

Researchers conducted a systematic review to assess global pediatric SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence.

Phase III trial shows noninferiority of VV116 compared to nirmatrelvir–ritonavir among adults with mild-to-moderate COVID-19 at risk of progression

Researchers presented the results of a phase III randomized controlled trial of oral SARS-CoV-2 antiviral VV116.

3 Jan 2023

How can we characterize the burden of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 in the community?

Researchers characterized the burden of post-acute sequelae of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) [PASC] in community-dwelling individuals.

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

What is the impact of COVID-19 on the human genetic architecture?

Researchers recently described the second update on the study of human genetic architecture with respect to the effect of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

3 Jan 2023

Why do some people develop persistent lung sequelae after severe COVID-19?

Clinical presentation following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ranges from mild self-limiting illness to severe respiratory failure. Many studies have analyzed the early acute phases of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), but few focused on the longer-term sequelae following infection.

BA.4/BA.5 mutations reduced responsiveness of epitope-specific T cells with original mRNA vaccine

A new study in the journal Viruses examines the phenomenon of breakthrough infections due to the evasion of T-cell immunity by the Omicron BA.4/BA.5 subvariants, showing this to be due to spike gene mutations.

2 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.

Scientists explore efficacy of small molecule drugs against severe COVID-19 in vitro

Researchers evaluated the efficacy of small molecule drugs against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in vitro.

29 Dec 2022

What are the long-term consequences following COVID-19 and other viral respiratory infections?

Researchers compared coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-specific long-term consequences to other viral respiratory infections.

Study identified factors that helped the Alaskan capital mitigate COVID-19's impact on residents

To date, Juneau, Alaska has the highest vaccination rates, among the lowest coronavirus cases, and among the fewest deaths among other boroughs (counties) in Alaska.

29 Dec 2022

Alveolar macrophages present as antigens to promote virus-specific CD8+ T cell expansion

The human immune system is a highly complex network of cells, signals, and responses that is tightly regulated to ensure that the body can fight off infection without damaging its own tissues.

28 Dec 2022

Cancer myths more likely to be endorsed by conspiracy believers

In a recent study published in the British Medical Journal, researchers assessed attitudes and beliefs toward cancer prevention among anti-coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccination individuals (anti-vaxxers), flat earth believers, and reptilian conspiracists.
