SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are an invaluable resource against COVID-19. Current vaccine shortage makes it necessary to prioritize distribution the most appropriate segments of population.This is a prospective cohort study 63 health care workers (HCWs) from General Hospital. We compared antibody responses two doses BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 between HCWs with previous infection (experienced HCWs) and without (naïve HCWs).Seven days after first dose, experienced 126-fold increase in levels (p<0·001)....
Abstract Background and Objectives Nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT), in blood services context, is used for the detection of viral parasite nucleic acids to reduce transfusion‐transmitted infections. This project reviewed NAT screening donations globally. Materials Methods A survey on usage, developed by International Society Blood Transfusion Working Party Transfusion‐transmitted Infectious Diseases (ISBT WP‐TTID), was distributed through ISBT WP‐TTID members. Data were analysed...
Abstract Different agencies have emphasized the need to evaluate current serological methods for screening patients with suspected urogenital schistosomiasis. However, there is still a lack of evidence regarding most appropriate this purpose. Here we assessed diagnostic efficacy newly developed technique that utilizes recombinant protein Sh -TSP-2, applied urine and serum migrants having The sensitivity, specificity, positive negative predictive values an in-house enzyme-linked immunosorbent...
Abstract Background and Objectives Nucleic acid‐amplification testing (NAT) is used for screening blood donations/donors blood‐borne viruses. We reviewed global viral NAT characteristics NAT‐yield confirmatory by operators. Materials Methods during 2019 was surveyed internationally the International Society of Blood Transfusion Working Party Transfusion‐Transmitted Infectious Diseases. Reported are presented herein. Results mainly performed under government mandate. Human immunodeficiency...
COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) is an experimental treatment against SARS-CoV-2. Although there has so far been no evidence of transmission through transfusion, pathogen reduction technologies (PRT) have applied to CCP mitigate risk infectious disease. This study aims assess the impact methylene blue (MB) plus visible light PRT on virus-neutralising activity specific antibodies SARS-CoV-2.Thirty-five doses collected by plasmapheresis from donors were subjected MB PRT. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 RBD...
Citrus leaf blotch virus (CLBV) was first detected in a Nagami kumquat, clone SRA-153 from Corsica (France), showing bud union crease when propagated on Troyer citrange.Citranges are important rootstocks Spain, presently being used for about 50% of all commercial citrus trees.Therefore, dispersal graft-transmissible pathogen causing this rootstock could potentially cause economic losses.CLBV has filamentous particles 900 × 14 nm size, with single-stranded, positive sense, genomic RNA (gRNA)...
The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission is a next generation satellite expected to provide 2km-resolution observation of the sea surface height (SSH) on two-dimensional swath. Processing SWOT data will be challenging, because large amount data, mismatch between high spatial resolution low temporal resolution, errors. present paper focuses reduction spatially structured errors SSH data. It investigates new error method assesses its performance in an observing system simulation...
While it is known that patients with moderate or severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) are at a higher risk of adverse events following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), the impact mild TR less well understood. We aimed to further investigate relationship between and outcomes among undergoing TAVR our center. A retrospective study was conducted major academic center on from 2018-2022. Patients were placed into 2 groups: those without/trivial (WTR) (MTR). excluded moderate/severe...
Elective cases of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) have been reported to shorter lengths stay and lower incidences adverse events compared urgent cases. Other studies shown outcomes be similar between the two groups. This study aims investigate relationship elective TAVR their among patients. We performed a retrospective analysis patients undergoing from 2018-2022 at major academic medical center in Chicago, Illinois. Patients were separated into groups: (EP) (UP). Primary...
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a less invasive treatment option for stenosis compared to open-heart surgery. Studies have shown that discharge disposition home can be associated with better outcomes TAVR patients. Our study aims investigate the relationship between and of patients undergoing at 6 12 months. We conducted retrospective analysis from 2018-2022 major academic medical center in Chicago. Patients were categorized as discharged (DH) or elsewhere (DO), which...
Introduction: Sex-related short-term outcomes following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) are known. There is less data comparing the long-term differences in between sexes. Studies suggest women likely to be referred for TAVR and have higher mortality. This study investigated genders races on 6 12 months post-TAVR. Questions: Are there males females who undergo TAVR? of different undergoing Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort among 252 patients 2018 2023 at major...
Abstract Background Vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 have provided an invaluable resource in the fight this infection. Given current vaccine shortage, vaccination programs must prioritize their distribution to most appropriate segments of population. Methods We carried out a prospective cohort study with 63 health care workers (HCWs) from public General Hospital. compared antibody responses two doses BNT162b2 mRNA Covid-19 between HCWs laboratory-confirmed infection before (experienced HCWs) and...
