Waning immunity after two SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccinations and the emergence of variants precipitated the need for a third dose of vaccine. We evaluated early safety and immunogenicity after a third mRNA vaccination in adults who received the mRNA-1273 primary series in the Phase 1 trial approximately 9 to 10 months earlier. The booster vaccine formulations included 100 mcg of mRNA-1273, 50 mcg of mRNA-1273.351 that encodes Beta variant spike protein, and bivalent vaccine of 25 mcg each of mRNA-1273 and mRNA-1273.351. A third dose of mRNA vaccine appeared safe with acceptable reactogenicity. Vaccination induced rapid increases in binding and neutralizing antibody titers to D614G, Beta, and Delta variants that were similar or greater than peak responses after the second dose. Spike-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells increased to similar levels as after the second dose. A third mRNA vaccination was well tolerated and generated robust humoral and T cell responses. ClinicalTrials.gov numbers NCT04283461 (mRNA-1273 Phase 1) and NCT04785144 (mRNA-1273.351 Phase 1).

Background And Importance: In the Czech Republic, paramedics are required to consult a physician before administering intravenous opioids, which may delay effective prehospital pain management. As paramedic competencies expand in Europe, it is important to evaluate the safety and efficacy of independent opioid administration in prehospital emergency care settings.
Objectives: To assess the safety and effectiveness of intravenous sufentanil administered independently by trained paramedics compared to administration following remote physician consultation in adult trauma patients.

Topiramate is increasingly used in the treatment of epilepsy during pregnancy. However, its plasma concentration evidently decreases during pregnancy, which may reduce its efficacy. This study aimed to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of topiramate to simulate maternal and fetal pharmacokinetic changes across different trimesters and to propose dose adjustments.

The Hippo signaling pathway, a critical regulator of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and tumor progression, is often dysregulated in NSCLC and contributes to chemo-resistance. This study investigated the potential of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a green tea polyphenol, to overcome OSI resistance by modulating the Hippo signaling pathway, specifically through inhibition of the YAP-1 (Yes-associated protein)-TEAD (TEA domain transcription factor)-CTGF (connective tissue growth factor) axis.

Rationale: Primary polydipsia refers to excessive water intake due to psychogenic or non-psychogenic causes without being secondary to conditions such as hyperglycemia or renal dysfunction. Most cases of primary polydipsia are psychogenic in nature, with few cases of non-psychogenic primary polydipsia reported in the literature. In this case, the patient's excessive water intake appeared to be influenced by both psychogenic and non-psychogenic factors.

Aim: This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of survodutide on glycemic control and weight loss in adults.
Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the efficacy and safety of survodutide up to 12 July 2025.
