Chimeric vaccine strain of type O foot-and-mouth disease elicits a strong immune response in pigs against ME-SA and SEA topotypes
Publication date: Available online 26 December 2018Source: Veterinary MicrobiologyAuthor(s): Mi-Kyeong Ko, Hae-Eun Cho, Joo-Hyung Choi, Su-Hwa You, Sung Ho Shin, Hyundong Jo, Min-Ja Lee, Su-Mi Kim, Byounghan Kim, Jong-Hyeon ParkAbstractFoot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is an acute infectious disease occurring in cloven-hoofed animals. There are many variations of the virus, making it difficult to protect against the various strains with one virus vaccine. The immunogenicity has generally been evaluated in pigs using neutralizing antibodies to determine the protection level against foot-and-mouth disease virus type O. Therefore,...

How COVID-19 Catalysed Digital Health Trends
Coronavirus has shattered our world and changed nearly all aspects of our lives. It has also changed our relationship to healthcare. It is slowly becoming a cliché to say that COVID-19 has catalysed healthcare trends – but nevertheless, it’s true. Everyone in the world has seen what devastating impact healthcare can have on our daily lives and how underfunded healthcare systems depend on the heroic frontline workers, who are holding the walls from falling apart. The windfall of the era of digital health is unquestionable, but it has always been. The hurdle was the adoption of these changes, for they posed infrastru...

Can Rusty Nails Cause Tetanus?
Discussion Clostridium tetani is a gram-positive bacillus that is anaerobic and spore forming. Tetanus spores are found universally worldwide in the soil and the stool of animals and people. The spores are hardy and can persist in a variety of environments. Contamination through the skin in wounds (especially deep puncture wounds) and the umbilicus are the primary entry points. It is not unusual for the organism not to grow in cultures. The bacteria grow in low oxygen environments and produces a potential neurotoxin which blocks the myoneural junction. Incubation period is 3-21 days, averaging 10 days. Neonatal tetanus gen...

Clinical features and management of animal bites in an emergency department: a single-center experience
CONCLUSION: Animal bites often cause minor injuries. However, multiple dog attacks can be seen related to a high number of stray animals in our country. Therefore, these patients may present major traumas. Surgical intervention and hospitalization may be required. Emergency physicians play an essential role in acute management and rabies prophylaxis in these patients.PMID:36093812 | DOI:10.1080/00325481.2022.2124089

Imst-03. a critical role for dendritic cells in priming a robust anti-glioma cd8 t cell response following picornavirus vaccination
Vaccine strategies to treat central nervous system (CNS) cancers hold great promise. However, the mechanisms leading to generation of an immune response to CNS cancers are unclear. Specifically, the antigen presenting cell (APC) required to activate a CNS tumor antigen-specific T cell response is unknown. To address this question, we generated a novel cell-type specific deletion of the H-2Kb MHC I molecule in C57BL/6 mice. By deleting H-2Kb on proposed APCs, including dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, and microglia, we can define which APCs are required to result in effective vaccination for the murine GL261-quad ca...

Doctors Do Know Best. Exhibit A: The Charlie Gard Case.
By SAURABH JHA, MD For American conservatives, Britain’s NHS is an antiquated Orwellian dystopia. For Brits, even those who don’t love the NHS, American conservatives are better suited to spaghetti westerns, such as Fistful of Dollars, than reality. The twain is unlikely to meet after the recent press surrounding Charlie Gard the infant, now deceased, with a rare, fatal mitochondrial disorder in which mitochondrial DNA is depleted – mitochondrial depletion disorder (MDD). In this condition, the cells lose their power supply and tissues, notably in the brain, die progressively and rapidly. The courts forbade Charlieâ...

Comment Treatment strategies to fight the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2: A challenge for a Rubik's Cube solver.
Authors: Tsitoura E, Bibaki E, Bolaki M, Vasarmidi E, Trachalaki A, K Symvoulakis E, A Spandidos D, M Antoniou K Abstract SARS-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the etiologic agent of the new lung disease COVID-19 is closely related to SARS-CoV, and together with MERS-CoV are three new human coronaviruses that emerged in the last 20 years. The COVID-19 outbreak is a rapidly evolving situation with higher transmissibility and infectivity compared with SARS and MERS. Clinical presentations range from asymptomatic or mild symptoms to severe illness. The prevalent cause of mortality is pneumonia that progresses to ARDS. The ...

Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus
Semin Respir Crit Care Med. 2021 Dec;42(6):828-838. doi: 10.1055/s-0041-1733804. Epub 2021 Dec 16.ABSTRACTThe past two decades have witnessed the emergence of three zoonotic coronaviruses which have jumped species to cause lethal disease in humans: severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 1 (SARS-CoV-1), Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), and SARS-CoV-2. MERS-CoV emerged in Saudi Arabia in 2012 and the origins of MERS-CoV are not fully understood. Genomic analysis indicates it originated in bats and transmitted to camels. Human-to-human transmission occurs in varying frequency, being highest in h...

The (sort of, partial) Father mRNA Vaccines Who Now Spreads Vaccine Misinformation (Part 2)
By DAVID WARMFLASH, MD This is part 2 of David Warmlash’s takedown of Robert W. Malone’s appearance (transcript) on the Rogan podcast. Part 1 is here Menstruation and Fertility Much more than the line about reproductive damage in the Wisconsin News clip that we used to open the story, Malone used the Rogan interview to dive more deeply into the topic, starting with:  …there’s a huge number of dysmenorrhea and menometrorrhagia… By that, he meant excessive menstrual cramping and very heavy, often irregular, bleeding, which he followed up with: …they DENY it… Judging by other parts ...

Looking Back At Today ’s Healthcare In 2060
I receive many questions after my talks and on my online channels about the not yet visible future. People want to know what healthcare will be like in the next decades. But throwing around predictions will not help us design a better healthcare. Although showing a utopian future of healthcare might do so. On a chilly October afternoon in 2060, after having watched the leaves falling off the trees in our garden for too long to get bored, my beautiful and overtly curious grandchild, Nina, came to me and started asking me questions. She pointed at one of the many CubeSensors in the living room – small,...

Animal Models for the Study of SARS-CoV-2-induced Respiratory Disease and Pathology
Comp Med. 2022 Oct 13. doi: 10.30802/AALAS-CM-22-000089. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEmergence of the betacoronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in a historic pandemic, with millions of deaths worldwide. An unprecedented effort has been made by the medical, scientific, and public health communities to rapidly develop and implement vaccines and therapeutics to prevent and reduce hospitalizations and deaths. Although SARS-CoV-2 infection can lead to disease in many organ systems, the respiratory system is its main target, with pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome as the hallmark features of severe disease. The la...
