Heart failure with improved ejection fraction (HFimpEF) has better outcomes than HF with reduced EF (HFrEF). However, factors contributing to HFimpEF remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate clinical and longitudinal characteristics associated with subsequent HFimpEF.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFTuberculosis consistently causes more deaths worldwide annually than any other single pathogen, making new effective vaccines an urgent priority for global public health. Among potential adjuvants, STING-activating cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) uniquely stimulate a cytosolic sensing pathway activated only by pathogens. Recently, we demonstrated that a CDN-adjuvanted protein subunit vaccine robustly protects against tuberculosis infection in mice.
