Immunologic responses to the third and fourth doses of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines in cell therapy recipients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Multiple studies have provided evidence of suboptimal or poor immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy compared to healthy individuals. Given the dynamic nature of SARS-CoV2, characterized by the emergence of many viral variations throughout the general population, there is ongoing discussion regarding the optimal quantity and frequency of additional doses required to sustain protection against SARS-CoV2 especially in this susceptible population. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the immune responses of HSCT and CAR-T cell therapy recipients to additional doses of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccines.

Determining the predictive impact of donor parity on the outcomes of human leukocyte antigen matched hematopoietic stem cell transplants: a retrospective, single-center study.

Introduction: Donor choosing remains to play a pivotal role in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Numerous criteria beyond HLA compatibility impact the selection of a suitable donor.

Methods: We evaluated the effect of donor parity on transplant outcomes in a large homogeneously treated population that received an HLA-matched allo-HSCT between 2010 and 2021 at our center.

Evaluation of gallbladder contractility and Doppler findings in patients with irritable bowel syndrome; a case-control study.

Background: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal disorder causing abdominal pain, altered bowel habits and bloating without structural issues. Gallbladder dysfunction may be linked to IBS due to disrupted cholecystokinin release. This study aims to assess gallbladder function and related hemodynamic parameters using Doppler ultrasound in IBS before and after meals.

Ultrasound-guided interventional approach to intraperitoneal nail gun injury: A case report with literature review.

Literature review suggests that surgery is the only option for dealing with intraperitoneal foreign bodies (laparoscopy and laparotomy). We showed that an interventional method using ultrasound guidance could be considered alongside surgical options.

Spontaneous bilateral tubal ectopic pregnancy preoperatively diagnosed by the ultrasound: a case report.

Background: Bilateral ectopic pregnancy is extremely rare, with a tremendous maternal mortality and morbidity risk, requiring rapid diagnosis and management. This condition is usually diagnosed during surgery, as radiologists may not pay enough attention to the contralateral side of interest. Therefore, reminding of this rare but emergent situation can be beneficial for both radiologists and gynecologists.
