STUDIES ON PNEUMOCOCCUS GROWTH INHIBITION

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1927
A study was made of the pneumococcidal action of serum-leucocyte mixtures of pneumococcus-resistant animals with a view to determining whether this property of the blood is to be accounted for by the presence of certain serum constituents or by cellular ...

Sutimlimab in Patients With Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD): Results From a Managed Access Program

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a low‐grade lymphoproliferative disorder accounting for 15%–30% of patients suffering from autoimmune hemolytic anemias. The clonal B cells produce autoantibodies primarily of the IgM‐κ class that cause agglutination of red blood cells (RBCs) at temperatures ≤ 37°C and activate the classical complement pathway ...

Factors Affecting Immune Reconstitution Post‐Allogeneic HSCT in Children: The Case for an Individualized Approach to Vaccination

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is increasingly used to treat malignant and non‐malignant diseases. Following allogeneic HSCT, patients are particularly vulnerable to vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPD) because conditioning depletes immune cells, including memory cells.

Late diagnosis of paediatric HIV infection in high‐income countries: Lessons from the HIV Perinatal Virtual Clinic

HIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Timely diagnosis of HIV in children remains a challenge in all settings including low‐prevalence, high‐income countries (HIC). We aimed to characterize the prevalence of late diagnosis, and prior missed diagnostic opportunities among new presentations of paediatric HIV in HIC referred to an international Perinatal Virtual Clinic ...
