Association between vaccination and persistent COVID-19-related symptoms among patients with mild Omicron infection: A prospective cohort study.

Background: While COVID-19 vaccination has been shown to reduce the risk of severe illness, its impact on the occurrence of persistent symptoms in patients with mild Omicron infection remains uncertain. Our objective was to investigate whether COVID-19 vaccination reduces the occurrence of persistent COVID-19-related symptoms 3 months after mild Omicron infection.

Methods: Multicenter prospective cohort study was conducted in Brazil between January 2022 and June 2023 when Omicron was predominant.

Adenine acts in the kidney as a signaling factor and causes salt- and water-losing nephropathy: early mechanism of adenine-induced renal injury.

Chronic adenine feeding is extensively used to develop animal models of chronic renal failure with metabolic features resembling those observed in humans. However, the mechanism by which adenine induces renal failure is poorly understood. In this study, we examined the early effects of adenine on water metabolism and salt balance in rats placed in metabolic cages and fed control or adenine-containing diets for 7 days.
