Neurological autoimmune diseases following vaccinations against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2): A follow‐up study

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 463-473, February 2023., 2023
In this study we define long‐term characteristics of various neurological autoimmune disorders encountered after SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccinations. Long‐term outcome was favorable in most cases. Re‐vaccinations were well‐tolerated and should be considered on an individual risk/benefit analysis.

A case of myasthenia gravis following alopecia areata

Journal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy, 2023
We present a case of myasthenia gravis that occurred after alopecia areata and evaluate the literature on the comorbidity of alopecia and myasthenia gravis. A 41‐year‐old male noticed hair loss on his scalp 4 months ago, and his hair loss progressed with

Cosmological Constraints on Large Extra Dimensions [PDF]

Phys.Lett.B508:335-339,2001, 2001
We calculate the production of massive Kaluza-Klein(KK) modes via nucleon-nucleon gravi-bremsstrahlung in the early universe. Overproduction of these states would result in early matter domination and therefore a low age for the universe so it is possible to place constraints on the number and size of large extra dimensions.

Factors associated with the severity of COVID‐19 outcomes in people with neuromuscular diseases: Data from the International Neuromuscular COVID‐19 Registry

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 30, Issue 2, Page 399-412, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background and purpose Clinical outcome information on patients with neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) who have been infected with SARS‐CoV‐2 is limited. The aim of this study was to determine factors associated with the severity of COVID‐19 outcomes in people with NMDs.

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Cardiovascular Adverse Events

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract In the last years, we assisted to a tremendous increase in therapeutic options for the management of cancers, with immunotherapy at the forefront of this innovation. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been developed to enhance the activity of the immune system against cancer cells (1) and the number of approvals for ICIs has rapidly ...

T‐cell receptor αβ+ double‐negative T cells in the kidney are predominantly extravascular and increase in abundance in response to ischemia–reperfusion injury

Immunology &Cell Biology, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 49-64, January 2023., 2023
T‐cell receptor+CD4−CD8− double‐negative (DN) T cells are a low abundance population of T cells relatively enriched in the kidney, but efforts to identify them have been hampered by their lack of defining surface markers. This paper describes a new flow cytometry–based approach for the accurate identification of these cells in kidneys.

Yang-Mills vacuum structure and quantum gravity [PDF]

Mod.Phys.Lett.A11:1807-1814,1996, 1996
Using renormalization group methods we calculate the derivative expansion of the effective Lagrangian for a covariantly constant gauge field in curved spacetime. Curvature affects the vacuum, in particular it could induce phase transitions between different vacua.
