Despite the recent rise in case volume, little is known on designing the ideal NAC that maintains its aesthetics in dynamic settings. This study aimed to examine the characteristics of male NACs and their dimensional variability to help develop guidelines on designing the neo-NAC.

Recent studies provide conflicting evidence on the persistence of SARS-CoV-2 immunity induced by mRNA vaccines. Here, we aim to quantify the persistence of humoral immunity following vaccination using a coronavirus antigen microarray that includes 10 SARS-CoV-2 antigens. In a prospective longitudinal cohort of 240 healthcare workers, composite SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody levels did not wane significantly over a 6-month study period.

There is an unmet need for effective biological therapies for relapsed central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. Lenalidomide is active in activated B-cell type diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and rituximab is effective in CNS lymphoma. These observations are the basis for this first trial of an immunomodulatory drug as monotherapy in CNS lymphoma, and, in patients with inadequate responses to lenalidomide, with rituximab.
