Hepatitis B in Organ Transplantation—Current Evidence and Clinical Gaps
ABSTRACT Over the past several decades there have been significant advances in nucleos(t)ide analogue (NA) antiviral therapy for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and global expansion of primary prevention through immunization. Despite this, HBV remains a leading cause of chronic liver disease globally, affecting over 250 million people.

Abstract Background Newly positive hepatitis B virus (HBV) serologic results after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) may reflect passive antibody transfer from blood‐derived products rather than HBV infection. We investigated the incidence and temporal patterns of hepatitis B surface antibody (anti‐HBs) and antibody to hepatitis B ...

Persistent Immune Thrombocytopenia as a Post‐Acute Sequelae of COVID‐19: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a recognized hematologic complication associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19), but its persistence years after acute infection remains uncommon. We present a case of a 52‐year‐old male who was diagnosed with COVID‐19 in June 2020. Following recovery from the acute illness, he had persistent fatigue,
