Article Abstract
A 68-year-old woman with follicular lymphoma was treated with chemotherapy, including the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody obinutuzumab, and achieved remission. A month after the administration of obinutuzumab, the patient contracted coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and various antiviral drugs were administered. However, the infection had not been eliminated. One year and three months after chemotherapy, peripheral B cell recovery was achieved, and the infection had resolved. This report provides insight into the course of COVID-19 in patients with impaired humoral immunity.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) sustains viral latency and drives oncogenesis in EBV-driven malignancies such as nasopharyngeal carcinoma and lymphomas. The dimerization of EBNA1 acts as an indispensable molecular switch governing EBV latency and oncogenesis. Disruption of EBNA1 dimerization is a promising strategy, but existing small-molecule inhibitors lack sufficient specificity.

Numerous genetic conditions are represented within the biochemical pathway for de novo cholesterol biosynthesis. Among the emerging disease-gene associations is CYP51A1, encoding a lanosterol demethylase enzyme. Biallelic variants in CYP51A1 have been associated with congenital cataracts and variable liver disease but an appreciation of genotype/phenotype correlation is lacking due to the limited number of patients described.

Background: The World Health Organization recommends at-home management of mild COVID-19. While our preliminary evaluation provided evidence for saline nasal irrigation (SNI) and gargling in COVID-19, an update and risk-benefit assessment for self-care in Omicron infection is warranted, from treatment and preparedness perspectives, as new SARS-CoV-2 variants continuously emerge, while symptoms overlap with those of common colds and other upper respiratory tract infections.
Methods: Systematic literature searches for preclinical and clinical studies involving Omicron infection and saline, bias assessment, and review of outcomes (benefits, risks).
