Article Abstract

Antinucleocapsid (anti-N) immunoglobulin G antibody responses were lower in plasma and oral fluid after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in vaccinated patients compared with patients infected before vaccination or infected without vaccination. This raises questions about the long-term use of anti-N antibodies as a marker for natural infection for surveillance.

The status of co-infection with porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type 1 (PRRSV-1) and type 2 (PRRSV-2) in Japan is poorly understood. A case of such co-infection was identified on a PRRSV-1 non-vaccinated farm in Kagoshima prefecture. Both PRRSV-1 and PRRSV-2 genomes were simultaneously detected in pig samples by RT-PCR, and molecular analysis confirmed PRRSV-1/PRRSV-2 co-infection in individual piglets.

The fraction that the elderly represent in the world's population is growing rapidly; numerous alterations that impact all organs and systems, including the immune system, are related to aging. A complex process common in the elderly, known as immunosenescence, is characterized by a decreased ability to respond to vaccination as well as an increased risk of bacterial and viral infections, autoimmune, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. These processes are associated with alterations in the innate and adaptive immune system and lead to a condition of chronic low-grade inflammation, referred to as inflammaging.

Introduction: Total splenectomy in children increases the risk of overwhelming post-splenectomy infection (OPSI). Laparoscopic subtotal splenectomy (LSS) is a technique to preserve splenic function while managing disease burden in pediatric hematologic disorders.

Materials And Surgical Technique: Three children aged 4 to 9 years with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML) or hereditary spherocytosis underwent LSS.

Whole genome characterisation of DS-1-like G8P[4] rotavirus A strains circulating in South Africa between 2009 and 2021 reveals endemic sub-lineages and evidence of radical epitope changes.

The sub-Saharan African region bears the highest burden of rotavirus-associated morbidity and mortality, with substantial genetic diversity observed in circulating strains despite vaccine introduction. The G8 genotype, originally predominant in bovine strains, has increasingly become prevalent in humans, suggesting a possible interface of animal-to-human transmission and highlighting its role in African strain diversity. In this study, we performed whole genome sequencing and evolutionary analysis of 21 archival G8P[4] strains collected through gastroenteritis surveillance in South Africa between 2009 and 2021 from children under five years of age.

Background: COVID-19 is still a significant health concern worldwide. B cell responses to COVID-19 have been extensively studied in acute severe disease, but less so during extended follow-up or mild disease. Persisting immunological changes together with herpesvirus reactivations during acute COVID-19 have been suggested as contributing factors for post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC).
