Engineering highly thermostable Cas12b via de novo structural analyses for one-pot detection of nucleic acids
Description
CRISPR-Cas-based diagnostics have the potential to elevate nucleic acid detection. CRISPR-Cas systems can be combined with a pre-amplification step in a one-pot reaction to simplify the workflow and reduce carryover contamination. Here, we report an
Evidence for Aerosol Transfer of SARS-CoV-2-Specific Humoral Immunity
Description
Infectious particles can be shared through aerosols and droplets formed as the result of normal respiration. Whether Abs within the nasal/oral fluids can similarly be shared between hosts has not been investigated. The circumstances of the SARS-CoV-2
Eight-Month Follow-up After the Third Dose of BNT162b2 Vaccine in Healthcare Workers: The Question of a Fourth Dose
Description
CONCLUSION: For HCWs who had coronavirus disease 2019 infection after completing a third vaccination, a sufficient antibody response was maintained until eight months after the third dose. The recommendation of the fourth dose may not be prioritized
Evaluation of the clinical effectiveness of telephone consultation compared to face-to-face consultation in terms of glycaemic control among patients with suboptimally controlled type 2 diabetes: a retrospective cohort study
Description
CONCLUSION: For patients with suboptimally controlled type 2 diabetes, one-time telephone consultation was non-inferior to face-to-face consultation in terms of glycaemic control in the short term. However, more studies are required to investigate
Effectiveness of Inactivated and mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines Against SARS-CoV-2 Infection, Severe Disease and Mortality in the Geriatric Population
Description
Older age (>60 years) has been identified as the main risk factor for COVID-19. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Pfizer-BioNTech and CoronaVac vaccines against COVID-19 infection, serious illness, and mortality in the geriatric
Effects of COVID-19 on School Nurse Mental Health Intervention Practices
Description
Mental health issues have been exacerbated by COVID-19; therefore we examined how the school nurses' role in addressing mental health changed during the pandemic. We administered a nationwide survey in 2021, guided by the Framework for the 21st
Effects of COVID-19 pandemic on pediatric tuberculosis: decrease in notification rates and increase in clinical severity
Description
The outbreak of COVID-19 resulted in a decrease in tuberculosis notification rates globally. We compared tuberculosis incidence rates and disease severity in children seen in our centre prior and during COVID-19 pandemic.We performed a cohort study
Expanding the Evidence on the Safety and Efficiency of 2-Way Text Messaging-Based Telehealth for Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision Follow-up Compared With In-Person Reviews: Randomized Controlled Trial in Rural and Urban South Africa
Description
CONCLUSIONS: Across rural and urban contexts in South Africa, 2wT was noninferior to routine in-person visits for AE ascertainment, demonstrating 2wT safety. The 2wT approach also significantly reduced the follow-up visit workload, improving
Efficacy of plasmapheresis in neutropenic patients suffering from cytokine storm because of severe COVID-19 infection
Description
CONCLUSION: Based on the study findings, plasmapheresis led to a significant improvement in laboratory markers and survival rate in patients with severe COVID-19. These findings reinforce the value of plasmapheresis in cancer patients as a critical
