INTRODUCTION: Sepsis, the leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), is associated with a high morbidity and mortality. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an endogenous detoxifying enzyme. A recombinant human ALP compound, ilofotase alfa, showed no
The primary two-dose SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine series are strongly immunogenic in humans, but the emergence of highly infectious variants necessitated additional doses and the development of new variant-derived vaccines^(1-4). SARS-CoV-2 booster
CONCLUSIONS: Sentinel-based surveillance, previously established for influenza, is an effective way to track the circulation trend of SARS-CoV-2 during community-level epidemics. There was no co-prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 and influenza virus during the
Antibodies play a central role in the immune defense against SARS-CoV-2. Emerging evidence has shown that nonneutralizing antibodies are important for immune defense through Fc-mediated effector functions. Antibody subclass is known to affect
CONCLUSION: In healthy workers, the two doses of BBIBP-CorV were able to induce humoral immunity; however, 3 months following vaccination, the antibody levels started to decline. The BBIBP-CorV booster injections increase both the quantity and
Virus infection involves the manipulation of key host cell functions by specialized virulence proteins. The Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) small accessory proteins ORF3a and ORF7a have been implicated in favoring virus
