SARS-CoV-2 antibodies persist As the number of daily COVID-19 cases continues to mount worldwide, nature humoral immune response severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) remains uncertain. Wajnberg et al. used a cohort more than 30,000 infected individuals with mild moderate symptoms determine robustness and longevity anti–SARS-CoV-2 antibody response. They found that neutralizing titers against spike protein persisted for at least 5 months after infection. Although...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a global pandemic. The proportion of infected individuals who seroconvert is still an open question. In addition, it been shown in some that viral genome can be detected up to 3 months after symptom resolution. We investigated both seroconversion and PCR positivity large cohort convalescent serum donors the New York City (NY, USA) region.In this observational study, we ran outreach programme area. recruited participants...
Abstract SARS-CoV-2 has caused a global pandemic with millions infected and numerous fatalities. Questions regarding the robustness, functionality longevity of antibody response to virus remain unanswered. Here we report that vast majority individuals mild-to-moderate COVID-19 experience robust IgG responses against viral spike protein, based on dataset 19,860 screened at Mount Sinai Health System in New York City. We also show titers are stable for least period approximating three months,...
Abstract Background Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has caused a global pandemic. The percentage of infected individuals who seroconvert is still an open question. In addition, it been shown in some that viral genome can be detected at considerable time post symptom resolution. Here we investigated both seroconversion and PCR-positivity large cohort convalescent serum donors New York City. Methods Individuals with confirmed or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection were...
Background: SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing is important for understanding immunity prevalence, and may have implications healthcare workers (HCW) during the pandemic. Methods: We conducted immunologic of to determine prevalence IgG in this population. HCW were advised wait at least two weeks from time symptom onset or suspected exposure before undergoing testing. All participants self-reported asymptomatic three days Results: Two hundred eighty-five samples collected March 24, 2020 April 4,...
Despite the ubiquitous use of race within scientific literature, medical trainees are not taught how to critically appraise racial categories. We developed a tool in literature and workshop teach this approach.Third-year students second- third-year residents participated workshops between 2015 2018. evaluated our UME with postworkshop survey. GME pretest, immediate posttest, 6-month posttest on self-assessed knowledge, skills, Critical Appraisal Race Medical Literature (CARMeL) subsequent...

Introduction Cardiology is a complex discipline that requires mastery of key principles and the ability to apply them in varied clinical scenarios, which may be challenging teach traditional lecture-based format. The purpose this educational intervention was evaluate effect flipped classroom model on knowledge base attitudes towards high-yield cardiology concepts third fourth-year medical students at our institution. Methods An invitation optional course sent Icahn School Medicine Mount...
