Polyethylene terephthalate nanoplastics (PET-NPs) are one of the most frequently distributed nanoplastics in daily life. Betaine is thought to be a promising hepatoprotective agent. The current investigation focused on whether orally administered PET-NPs caused hepatotoxicity and ameliorative effect of betaine.

Purpose: This phase I study aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the PIKA-adjuvanted recombinant severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike (S) protein subunit vaccine in healthy adults aged 18 years and older.

Materials And Methods: This is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation study at three dose levels (5 µg, 10 µg, and 20 µg) of the PIKA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine administered intramuscularly. The three vaccine arms are (A) subjects who have never received any COVID-19 vaccination or have had COVID-19 infection for >6 months prior to enrolment; (B1) subjects whose COVID-19 primary vaccination series was completed with an inactivated COVID-19 vaccine; and (B2) subjects whose primary series was completed with messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccine.

Objective:  Fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increasingly used for evaluation of fetal anomalies, and rates of incidental maternal findings are not well characterized. Our objective was to evaluate the rate of incidental maternal findings at the time of antenatal MRI performed for fetal indications.

Study Design:  This was a retrospective cohort study that included all fetal MRIs performed between 2018 and 2023 at a single tertiary care institution with a multidisciplinary fetal diagnosis and treatment center.
