Neuroimmune pathophysiology of long COVID

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Although COVID‐19 was originally considered a respiratory illness, it is now well established that SARS‐CoV‐2 infection can have far‐reaching impacts on the nervous system. Neurological symptoms such as chemosensory dysfunction are frequently observed during acute infection and approximately 10% of COVID‐19 cases will go on to develop new or persistent

Vaccines for post-exposure prophylaxis against varicella (chickenpox) in children and adults

São Paulo Medical Journal
BACKGROUND: Live attenuated varicella vaccines for the prevention of varicella (chickenpox) has been demonstrated both in randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and in population-based immunisation programmes in countries such as the United States. However,

The incidence of varicella and herpes zoster in Massachusetts as measured by the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) during a period of increasing varicella vaccine coverage, 1998–2003

BMC Public Health, 2005
Background The authors sought to monitor the impact of widespread varicella vaccination on the epidemiology of varicella and herpes zoster. While varicella incidence would be expected to decrease, mathematical models predict an initial increase in herpes

A Phase 1, Open‐Label Study of the Pharmacokinetics of Ritlecitinib in Children Aged 6–12 Years With Alopecia Areata

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Alopecia areata (AA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by hair loss that can negatively impact quality of life. AA has a significant pediatric prevalence; however, no systemic treatments are approved for AA in patients aged < 12 years. Ritlecitinib, a JAK3/TEC family kinase inhibitor, is approved to treat adults and adolescents

The relationship between maternal periodontitis and congenital cytomegalovirus: A hypothetical model and therapeutic implications

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The primary goal of periodontology is to prevent tooth loss and reduce the risk of focal infections. Periodontitis lesions can harbor hundreds of thousands of active cytomegaloviruses (virions), which can easily enter the systemic circulation and potentially infect the fetus of a mother with compromised immunity.

Vaccine Adjuvants in the Immunocompromised Host: Science, Safety, and Efficacy

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vaccine adjuvants are essential for enhancing immune responses to vaccines, particularly in immunocompromised populations who typically demonstrate suboptimal responses to standard vaccination. This narrative review evaluates the safety and efficacy of approved and candidate adjuvants in immunocompromised hosts, with emphasis on solid organ ...

Influence of demographic changes on the impact of vaccination against varicella and herpes zoster in Germany – a mathematical modelling study

BMC Medicine, 2018
Background Epidemiological studies suggest that reduced exposure to varicella might lead to an increased risk for herpes zoster (HZ). Reduction of exposure to varicella is a consequence of varicella vaccination but also of demographic changes.
