The unprecedented speed of delivery of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic vaccines has redefined the limits for all vaccine development. Beyond the aspirational 100-day timeline for tomorrow's hypothetical pandemic vaccines, there is a sense of optimism that

The use of Polypropylene PP in disposable items such as face masks, gloves, and personal protective equipment has increased exponentially during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, contributing significantly to microplastics and nanoplastics in the

This was a household-based prospective cohort study conducted in Rio de Janeiro, in which people with laboratory-confirmed Covid-19 and their household contacts were followed from April 2020 through June 2022. Ninety-eight reinfections were

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a +sense single-strand RNA virus. The virus has four major surface proteins: spike (S), envelope (E), membrane (M), and nucleocapsid (N), respectively. The constitutive proteins present

This study reports on the successful conjugation of SARS-CoV-2 S1 spike protein fragments with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) that were synthesised with Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis (USP). This method enables the continuous synthesis of AuNPs with a high

Salivary myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a key mediator of the oral immune system, acting as an enzyme that utilises H(2)O(2) to generate molecules with high bactericidal activity. While MPO determination in plasma is quite common, the use of saliva is

Autoimmune cardiopathies (AC) following COVID-19 and vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 occur at significant rates but are of unknown etiology. This study investigated the possible roles of viral and bacterial mimicry, as well as viral-bacterial co

CONCLUSIONS: Socioeconomic inequality, health and well-being inequity in transgender people appear to be exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria. Interventions are necessary to mitigate socioeconomic challenges, address structural inequality

CONCLUSIONS: Patients with IBD who are treated with anti-TNF biologics show impaired neutralisation against novel omicron sublineages BQ.1.1 and XBB.1.5 and may benefit from prioritisation for future variant-adapted vaccines.

Group A rotaviruses (RVAs) are major etiologic agents of gastroenteritis in infants and young children worldwide. To study the prevalence and genetic characteristics of RVAs, a hospital-based surveillance study was conducted in Wuhan, China from June
