CONCLUSIONS: When conservative treatment fails, we recommend TUL as the second-line treatment over temporary procedures, such as double J stent or nephrostomy insertion. Of note, in a group of patients with an emergent clinical setting, including
(1) Background: Vaccine safety is an important topic with public health implications on a global scale. The purpose of this study was to systematically review available literature assessing sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) incidence and severity
Despite the outstanding progress that has been made in the prevention, detection, and management of hepatitis B during the past decades, hepatitis B remains a problem among healthcare personnel (HCP) in many countries. We reviewed studies on all
In Ethiopia, the WHO strategies to stop coronavirus transmission were implemented rapidly. As a result, there was a rapid change in hygiene behavior, which are basic for preventing COVID-19 and other contagious diseases. This research was designed to
With the ongoing evolution of severe acute respiratory virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases continues to rise. This study aims to investigate the impact of vaccination status, SARS-CoV-2 variants, and disease severity on the
This study delves into the intricate landscape of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine response in immunodeficient patients, focusing on the dynamics of both humoral and cell-mediated immunity. The cohort includes patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVI)
CONCLUSIONS: In pregnant people with prior SARS-CoV-2, vaccination before delivery provided more durable maternally-derived antibody responses than infection alone in infants through 6 months.
The efficacy of epitope vaccines depends on the included epitopes as well as the probability that the selected epitopes are presented by the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins of a vaccinated individual. Designing vaccines that
