Prospective study on outcome of MDR-TB using the shorter regimen during COVID-19 pandemic
CONCLUSION: Overall treatment success was similar when compared to other studies done previously. A shorter drug regimen was associated with minor adverse effects such as gastrointestinal adverse effects such as vomiting and hearing loss observed in elderly patients. Baseline unknown drug resistance and lower BMI were associated with unsuccessful outcomes. Measures should be taken to improve nutrition. Our results argue the need for improving baseline DST at peripheral areas in order to effectively evaluate resistance to other drugs, especially in settings with high levels of first and second-line drug resistance.PMID:3763...

Impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on Chinese assisted reproductive technology institutions and human sperm banks: reflections in the post-pandemic era
CONCLUSIONS: Given the growing frequency of outbreaks of global infectious diseases in recent years, ART institutions and human sperm banks should pay attention to improving their prevention and control capabilities. To a certain extent, decisions and measures adopted in China during COVID-19 pandemic are worthy of recognition and acceptance. Chinese scholars have discussed, proactively responded to and understand the key issues surrounding ART development during the pandemic with the aim of contributing to the substantial progress and healthy development of ART services in the world.PMID:37592335 | DOI:10.1186/s41043-023-00422-1

Maternal immunization during the second trimester with BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine induces a robust IgA response in Human Milk: A prospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Our study provides evidence that administering the mRNA-vaccine to pregnant females during the second trimester leads to increased levels of vaccine-specific IgA during lactation. Considering the significance of human-milk IgA in mucosal tissues and its prevalence throughout lactation, it is reasonable to recommend maternal immunization with the BNT162b2 mRNA-vaccine during the second trimester.PMID:37479184 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2023.07.013

Mushroom β-glucans: application and innovation for food industry and immunotherapy
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol. 2023 Jul 6. doi: 10.1007/s00253-023-12656-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAmong the most important sources of β-glucans are edible and medicinal mushrooms. These molecules are components of the cellular wall of basidiomycete fungi (mushrooms) and can be extracted even from the basidiocarp as the mycelium and its cultivation extracts or biomasses. Mushroom β-glucans are recognized by their potential effects as immunostimulants and immunosuppressants. They are highlighted as anticholesterolemic, anti-inflammatory, adjuvant in diabetes mellitus, mycotherapy for cancer treatment, as well as adjuva...
