Short-term outcome of pregnant women vaccinated with BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.

Objectives: To determine the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of the Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 mRNA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine among pregnant women compared with non-pregnant women, and to evaluate obstetric outcome following vaccination.

Methods: This was an observational case-control study of pregnant women who were vaccinated with a two-dose regimen of the BNT162b2 vaccine during gestation between January and February 2021 (study group) and age-matched non-pregnant women who received the vaccine during the same time period (control group). Participants received a digital questionnaire 1-4 weeks after the second dose and were asked to provide information regarding demographics, medication, medical history, history of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, timing of COVID-19 vaccine doses and side effects after each vaccine dose.

Role of psychosocial factors in long-term adherence to secondary prevention measures after myocardial infarction: a longitudinal analysis.

Purpose: Psychosocial factors have been linked to myocardial infarction (MI) outcomes. Whether psychosocial factors affect post-MI long-term adherence to secondary prevention recommendations remains uncertain.

Methods: Patients ≤65 years (n = 616) were assessed for optimism, perceived social support (PSS), sense of coherence (SOC), anxiety, and depression at initial hospitalization for acute MI (1992-1993).
