CONCLUSION: Parameters of body composition correlate and affect antibody response in patients on hemodialysis. The main observation is that immunogenicity of mRNA vaccines is influenced by phase angle and prediction marker.
The massive spread of fake news (FN) requires a better understanding of both risks and protective psychological factors underlying vulnerability to misinformation. Prior studies have mostly dealt with news that do not bear any direct personal
CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that the pandemic caused a greater negative impact on job satisfaction of HCPs compared with teachers because they felt less supported by their superiors, which had a greater impact on their psychological health.
INTRODUCTION: While SARS-CoV-2 vaccines provide significant protection against severe COVID-19 illness, breakthrough infections have sparked confusion among patients about the effectiveness of vaccination. It's unclear if (or to what extent)
CONCLUSIONS: We describe our effective, safe and swift approach to bedside open tracheostomy during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our experience demonstrated a short mean procedural time, with no tracheostomy-related complications and no reported viral
This study reports that most patients with NSCLC had a significant increase in the nAb response to the currently circulating Omicron variants after bivalent booster vaccination and had Ab titers comparable to healthy participants. Interestingly
Since the start of COVID-19 pandemic, a huge effort has been devoted to understanding the Spike (SARS-CoV-2)-ACE2 recognition mechanism. To this end, two deep mutational scanning studies traced the impact of all possible mutations across receptor
The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic has highlighted the urgent need for strategies that rapidly inactivate airborne respiratory viruses and break the transmission cycle of indoor spaces. Air ions can reduce viable bacteria, mold, and virus counts
There are limited real-world data on the effectiveness of tixagevimab-cilgavimab as pre-exposure prophylaxis of COVID-19. We describe lessons learned when coordinating data collection and identifying breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infections among patients
