Vitamin D Supplementation During COVID-19 Lockdown and After 20 Months: Follow-Up Study on Slovenian Women Aged Between 44 and 66
Description
CONCLUSIONS: Vitamin D supplementation increased 7-fold compared to pre-pandemic levels and remained at a high level after 20 months. However, a significant number of participants discontinued supplementation, and only one-fifth were taking vitamin D
Viral kinetics of sequential SARS-CoV-2 infections
Description
The impact of a prior SARS-CoV-2 infection on the progression of subsequent infections has been unclear. Using a convenience sample of 94,812 longitudinal RT-qPCR measurements from anterior nares and oropharyngeal swabs, we identified 71 individuals
Vaccination prevents IL-1β-mediated cognitive deficits after COVID-19
Description
Up to 25% of SARS-CoV-2 patients exhibit post-acute cognitive sequelae. Although millions of cases of COVID-19-mediated memory dysfunction are accumulating worldwide, the underlying mechanisms and how vaccination lowers risk are unknown. Interleukin

Value-based care, prioritizing patient outcomes over service volume, is steering a transformative course in anesthesiology in the United States. With the rise of this patient-centric approach, anesthesiologists are adopting dynamic roles to meet the
Viral dissemination and immune activation modulate antiretroviral drug levels in lymph nodes of SIV-infected rhesus macaques
Description
CONCLUSION: These observations have broad implications for drugs that need to phosphorylate to exert their pharmacological activity, especially in the settings of the pre-/post-exposure prophylaxis and efficacy of antiviral therapies targeting
Vertical Transmission of SARS-CoV-2-Specific Antibodies and Cytokine Profiles in Pregnancy
Description
Despite intensive characterization of immune responses after COVID-19 infection and vaccination, research examining protective correlates of vertical transmission in pregnancy are limited. Herein, we profiled humoral and cellular characteristics in
Very Low Dose Radiation Therapy for Indolent Lymphomas: Comparing "Big Boom" (4 Gy x 1) vs. "Boom Boom" (2 Gy x 2)
Description
CONCLUSION: Both the 4 Gyx1 and 2 Gyx2 regimens demonstrated excellent ORR at the initial post-RT imaging assessment among patients with indolent lymphomas. While longer term follow-up is required to confirm durability of these findings, our initial
Vitamin D as a predictor of negative outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients: An observational study
