Various novel platform technologies have been used for the development of COVID-19 vaccines. In this nested cohort study among healthcare workers in Australia and Brazil who received three different COVID-19-specific vaccines, we (a) evaluated incidence adverse events following immunization (AEFI); (b) compared AEFI by vaccine type, dose country; (c) identified factors influencing AEFI; (d) assessed association between reactogenicity anti-spike IgG antibody responses. Of 1302 participants...
BCG vaccination and revaccination are increasingly being considered for the protection of adolescents adults against tuberculosis and, more broadly, off-target protective immunological effects other infectious noninfectious diseases. Within an international randomized controlled trial in healthcare workers (the BRACE trial), we evaluated incidence local serious adverse events, as well impact previous on injection site reactions (BCG revaccination). Prospectively collected data from 99%...
Aortocaval fistulas (ACFs) are rare with varied etiologies. Symptoms can be acute or delayed predominant manifestations being high output cardiac failure. Acute coronary syndrome due to ACF has not been widely reported. We present a case of 68-year-old male who presented signs and symptoms suggestive syndrome. This was confirmed by electrocardiogram changes rise in enzymes. A large abdominal aortic aneurysm diagnosed initially imaging without evidence leak rupture. angiogram showed only mild...
An accelerated local injection site reaction following Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination has been associated with underlying active tuberculosis (TB) in high TB-prevalence settings. The clinical significance of this BCG individuals without TB symptoms, particularly low countries, is unclear.Using safety surveillance data and baseline interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA) within an international randomised trial healthcare workers (the BRACE trial), we aimed to determine the...
Pulmonary calcification can develop as a complication of end-stage renal failure. Most patients are asymptomatic, with characteristic parenchymal changes incidentally detected on computed tomography (CT) imaging and clinical course that is usually benign. In this report, we describe 64-year-old female history inadequate peritoneal dialysis who presented severe chronic cough, symptom persisted despite treatment for respiratory tract infection. On follow-up bronchoscopic examination, white...
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends targeted screening for latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) among high-risk populations. Recent studies that evaluate school-based programmes in low burden settings are scarce.To a school programme recently arrived migrant students from moderate and high (TB) countries estimate (1) the number of cases active TB were prevented (2) cost per case prevented.Students screened with tuberculin skin tests (TST) at schools population intake. Those...
