CONCLUSION: In a series with a large percentage of UNVAX patients, LTx appears to be safe, with no difference in the rate of COVID-19 or transplant-related outcomes compared to VAX. While we encourage vaccination to prevent severe COVID, based on our

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to negatively impact solid organ transplant recipients (SOTr). Data on the use of tixagevimab-cilgavimab (tix-cil) in vaccinated SOTr during circulation of Omicron and its subvariants are

The aim of this study was to identify and assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the diagnosis and treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients of the Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery of the 4th Military Teaching

CONCLUSION: Older participants with uncontrolled comorbidities were most likely to demise from COVID-19. Wave two (characterised by the 'Beta' variant) had the highest mortality rate.Contribution: This study provides insight into the risk factors

An attenuated SARS-CoV-2 virus with modified viral transcriptional regulatory sequences and deletion of open-reading frames 3, 6, 7 and 8 (∆3678) was previously reported to protect hamsters from SARS-CoV-2 infection and transmission. Here we report

A subset of cancer patients is particularly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 infection; however, real-world outcomes-based data on primary central nervous system tumor patients is sparse. This retrospective series describes a cohort of adult glioma patients

CONCLUSIONS: During a crisis SRMH can identify the majority of those most likely to benefit from additional assessment and support. Persistently poor SRMH indicates highest risk, detectable from routine screening.

The COVID-19 pandemic shows a critical need for rapid, inexpensive, and ultrasensitive early detection methods based on biomarker analysis to reduce mortality rates by containing the spread of epidemics. This can be achieved through the electrical

CONCLUSIONS: When compared with community-onset stroke, in-hospital stroke represents a distinct stroke subgroup with poorer outcomes and delays to thrombolysis emphasising the need for standardised approaches to evaluation and management.

Since SARS-CoV-2 is a highly transmissible virus, a rapid and accurate diagnostic method is necessary to prevent virus spread. We aimed to develop and evaluate a new rapid colorimetric reverse transcription loop--mediated isothermal amplification (RT
