The Impact of COVID19 on Treatment Practices for Patients With Early Breast Cancer: A Cross-Sectional Study From a Large Cancer Center In Italy
CONCLUSIONS: There was no evidence for major changes in the management of patients with EBC during 2019-2021 and no treatment delays were observed. Our findings suggest that more women presented with palpable nodules at diagnosis, but the stage distribution did not change over time. Validation on a larger cohort of patients is warranted to robustly assess the impact of the COVID19 pandemic on treatment practices for patients with EBC.PMID:37699107 | DOI:10.1093/oncolo/oyad255

Reducedhumoral response against variants of concern in childhood solid cancer patients compared to adult patients and healthy children after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination
CONCLUSIONS: The humoral response against VOCs after the CoronaVac vaccination in CCP was moderately impaired although the vaccine was safe. Age and chemotherapy time seem to be the primary reason for poor response and low serology levels.PMID:37304300 | PMC:PMC10247972 | DOI:10.3389/fimmu.2023.1110755

Within-Host Evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in a B-Cell Depleted Patient With Successful Treatment
J Korean Med Sci. 2023 Jun 5;38(22):e175. doi: 10.3346/jkms.2023.38.e175.ABSTRACTProlonged viral shedding of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in an immunocompromised host is a challenge as the treatment and infection control for chronic coronavirus disease 2019 infection is not well established and there is a potential risk of new variants emerging. A 48-year-old woman who underwent chemotherapy, including rituximab and steroid, had reactivation of SARS-CoV-2 68 days after the virus was first detected. She successfully recovered after receiving convalescent plasma and intravenous immunoglobulin....

Immunogenicity of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine in patients with hematologic malignancies
CONCLUSION: Immune responses were impaired in individuals with hematologic malignancies, particularly patients undergoing ongoing therapy and B-cell-depleting therapy. Additional vaccinations should be considered for these patients, and further investigated.PMID:37214149 | PMC:PMC10193112 | DOI:10.7774/cevr.2023.12.2.107

The state of current research on COVID-19 and antibiotic use: global implications for antimicrobial resistance
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first bibliometric analysis of COVID-19-related research on antibiotics. Research was carried out in response to global requests to increase the fight against AMR and awareness of the issue. More restrictions on the use of antibiotics are urgently needed from policy makers and authorities, more so than in the current situation.PMID:37173756 | DOI:10.1186/s41043-023-00386-2
