Viral adaptation to host immune responses occurs in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and adaptation is greatest in HBV e antigen-negative disease [PDF]

, 2012
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific T-cell responses are important in the natural history of HBV infection. The number of known HBV-specific T-cell epitopes is limited, and it is not clear whether viral evolution occurs in chronic HBV infection. We aimed to

Trends in hospitalizations for vaccine‐preventable diseases in the United States from 2014 to 2024

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Vaccination rates have declined in recent years, resulting in outbreaks of vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPDs) among children. We aimed to evaluate VPD hospitalization rates from 2014 to 2024 and to report associated trends in outcomes including intensive care utilization, mortality, readmissions, and costs.

Distinct cytokine patterns in Occult Hepatitis C and Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection [PDF]

, 2011
Background & Aim: The immunopathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a matter of great controversy. The imbalance of T-helper lymphocyte cell cytokine production was believed to play an important pathogenic role in ...

Precision immunomodulation for pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in intensive care

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
This review presents a bedside framework for recognizing pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and cytokine storm, stabilizing organ dysfunction, identifying the underlying phenotype, selecting targeted immunomodulation, considering extracorporeal adjuncts, and reassessing response within 24–72 h. ABSTRACT Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)
