Serological immunity against vaccine‐preventable diseases in children with inflammatory bowel disease at diagnosis

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of vaccine‐preventable diseases. However, vaccination coverage in this population is often suboptimal. This retrospective study assessed the vaccination status and vaccine serology of children diagnosed with IBD in a high‐income country with broad vaccine access ...

When protein losing enteropathy persists: A case series of viral and lymphatic‐associated etiologies

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein‐losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare condition that is characterized by loss of plasma protein in the intestines leading to hypoproteinemia with subsequent peripheral edema and possibly anasarca. The pathophysiology of PLE varies depending on the etiology and involves either intestinal mucosal injury or lymphatic system alterations ...

Buccal Mucosa as Substrate for Direct Immunofluorescence Should Be Included Early in the Diagnostic Work Up of Ocular Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In ocular mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) direct immunofluorescence (DIF) represents the gold standard for definitive diagnosis. However, up to 50% of ocular MMP cases do not meet the immunopathological criteria. In addition, the risk of exacerbating conjunctival cicatrization makes ocular biopsy technically difficult to obtain ...

Beta Human Papillomaviruses Seropositivity and the Association With Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is one of the most common nonmelanoma skin cancers, with increasing incidence globally. Beta genus human papillomaviruses (β‐HPVs), particularly in immunocompromised individuals, have been implicated in the development of cSCC. However, the strength of association between β‐HPV seropositivity

Identification of Clinical Factors Associated With the Immunogenicity of Homologous ChAdOx1‐nCoV‐19 Vaccine in Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at higher risk of severe COVID‐19 and may exhibit suboptimal vaccine responses. This study evaluates the factors influencing vaccine‐induced immunity in HD patients following the second dose of the Vaxzevria. A total of 276 HD patients and 126 controls were included. Antibody responses were assessed using binding
