Applying the COM-B behaviour model to understand factors which impact school immunisation nurses' attitudes towards designing and delivering a HPV educational intervention in post-primary schools for 15-17 year old students in Northern Ireland, UK
CONCLUSION: IMNs feel that they are the most appropriate professionals to design/deliver HPV education for 15-17 year old students. National policy change, based on collaboration between the Public Health Agency and Education Authority, is a key factor in facilitating IMNs to implement this school-based HPV education intervention.PMID:37543445 | DOI:10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.07.066

High SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence in Lagos, Nigeria with robust antibody and cellular immune responses
CONCLUSIONS: These results have important implications for understanding the paradoxically high SARS-CoV-2 infection with low mortality rate in Africa and supports the need to better understand the implications of SARS-CoV-2 cellular immunity.PMID:37388808 | PMC:PMC10289822 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcvp.2023.100156

Building a Digital Immune System
Credit: Courtesy of Dr. Tomas Helikar.
The power of computer code has been a longtime fascination for Tomas Helikar, Ph.D., a professor of biochemistry at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL). In college, when he learned he could use that power to help researchers better understand biology and improve human health, Dr. Helikar knew he’d found his ideal career. Since then, he’s built a successful team of scientists studying the ways we can use mathematical models in biomedical research, such as creating a digital replica of the immune system that could predict how a patient will react to infectious microorganisms ...

Fight Aging! Newsletter, June 26th 2023
This study explored the association between different cooking fuel types and the risk of cancer and all-cause mortality among seniors constructing Cox regression models. Data were obtained by linking waves of 6, 7, and 8 of the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, which included a total of 7,269 participants who were 65 years old and over. Cooking fuels were categorized as either biomass, fossil, or clean fuels. And the effects of switching cooking fuels on death risk were also investigated using Cox regression models.
The results indicate that, compared with the users of clean fuels, individuals using bio...

Carcinoma vulva: Ten years experience in a teaching institution of North India
CONCLUSION: Tumour stage, nodal positivity and nodal ECS were poor prognostic factors. Radical surgery-extensive groin node dissection causes significant morbidity; hence, studies evaluating the role of neoadjuvant treatment are needed so as to modify current treatment practices. HPV vaccination as a preventive measure and a thorough and extensive evaluation of patients with suspicious signs in vulvar disease is needed.PMID:37312782 | PMC:PMC10259558 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_1731_22

T Cells May Play a Role in the Brain Inflammation Characteristic of Neurodegenerative Conditions
https://www.fightaging.org/archives/2023/03/t-cells-may-play-a-role-in-the-brain-inflammation-characteristic-of-neurodegenerative-conditions/
Alzheimer's disease, and other forms of neurodegenerative condition, are characterized by chronic inflammation in brain tissue. Unresolved inflammatory signaling is disruptive of tissue structure and function. Here, researchers provide evidence for T cells to become involved in this...

Chronic medical conditions associated with invasive pneumococcal diseases in inpatients in teaching hospitals in S ão Paulo city: Estimating antimicrobial susceptibility and serotype-coverage of pneumococcal vaccines
CONCLUSION: Vaccine with expanded valence of serotypes is necessary to offer broad prevention to IPD. The present data contribute to pneumococcal vaccination public health policies for vulnerable patients, mainly those with comorbidity and the elderly.PMID:36758625 | DOI:10.1016/j.bjid.2023.102746
