Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Graphene‐based materials are attracting considerable interest for biomedical applications. Analysis of their biocompatibility is required before their clinical translation, and swine represents an excellent close‐to‐human model. This study evaluates the toxicological and immunological impact of pristine graphene and graphene oxide through a compendium ...

The Information Ecosystem of Online Groups with Anti- and Pro-vaccine Views on Facebook [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Opposition and hesitancy to vaccination have been one of the major threats to global health. Social media sites have been suspected as a breeding ground of misleading narratives about vaccines, but little is known about how pervasive anti-vaccine views are on the world's largest social media, Facebook.

Rational Design of Conjugate Vaccines [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1992 Whereas bacterial polysaccharides, classified as T-cell-independent antigens, elicit protective antibodies in adults, booster injections fail to produce an augmented response or promote antibody class switching. Because T-cell-dependent antigens, typically proteins, both produce boosted antibody levels and promote antibody class switching, it has been ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The new generation nanobomb, termed the stealth nanobomb, is fabricated through self‐assembly using a polymeric carbon monoxide carrier (PLGA(CO)), small molecule near‐infrared‐active agents (2TT‐OC46B), and phospholipid polyethylene glycol (DSPE‐mPEG2000). The stealth nanobomb can circulate in the bloodstream and specifically target pancreatic cancer,

Vaccination dilemma on an evolving social network [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Vaccination is crucial for the control of epidemics. Yet it is a social dilemma since non-vaccinators can benefit from the herd immunity created by the vaccinators. Thus the optimum vaccination level is not reached via voluntary vaccination at times.

Vaccination strategies and transmission of COVID-19: evidence across advanced countries [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Given limited supply of approved vaccines and constrained medical resources, design of a vaccination strategy to control a pandemic is an economic problem. We use time-series and panel methods with real-world country-level data to estimate effects on COVID-19 cases and deaths of two key elements of mass vaccination - time between doses and vaccine type.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Schematic illustration of the mechanism of targeted delivery of nanoparticles including 1) paracellular, 2) endolysosomal escape, 3) receptor mediated endocytosis, and 4) M cell mediated transport for non‐GI diseases by oral administration such as atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes, and brain diseases. Abstract Oral drug delivery is a promising approach

Epidemiology and Control of Meningococcal Disease in Canada: A Long, Complex, and Unfinished Story
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2019 The epidemiology of meningococcal disease in Canada has been punctuated by outbreaks caused by serogroup A strains in the 1940s, virulent serogroup C clones from 1985 to 2001, a serogroup B clone in Quebec from 2003 to 2014, and more recently a W clone ...
