Dose-dependent serological profiling of AdCLD-CoV19-1 vaccine in adults.

AdCLD-CoV19-1, a chimeric adenovirus-based severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine, was previously reported to elicit robust antibody responses in mice and non-human primates after a single dose. In this study, we conducted a systems serology analysis to investigate changes in humoral immune responses induced by varying doses of the AdCLD-CoV19-1 vaccine in a phase I clinical trial. Serum samples from participants receiving either a low or a high dose of the vaccine were analyzed for antibody features against prototype SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) domains (full-length S, S1, S2, and receptor binding domain), as well as Fc receptor binding and effector functions.

Evaluation of nasal septum deviation via reformatted computed tomography (CT) imaging following expansion using RPE and MARPE.

Objective: To evaluate whether rapid palatal expansion (RPE) or miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion (MARPE) affects nasal septum deviation (NSD).

Materials And Methods: The study population includes 22 RPE patients ages 9.62 ± 1.

Volatile methylsiloxanes of 141 personal care products in Korea: An adult exposure assessment.

The widespread use of personal care products (PCPs) and subsequent exposure to their volatile methylsiloxane (VMS) content are often overlooked worldwide. Moreover, regulatory measures addressing VMS levels are sparse, and research on VMS levels in PCPs is limited. Therefore in this study, 141 PCPs from Korea, one of the biggest PCP markets in the world, were extracted and analyzed for seven VMSs using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.

Exploring Physical Activity Among Mexican American Immigrants in New York City Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Two-Wave Panel, Mixed-Method Analysis.

The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with decreases in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and increases in sedentary time for children and adults, and there is some evidence that Latino populations were particularly affected. This article leverages a two-wave panel, mixed-method social network dataset collected before and during the pandemic with Mexican American immigrants living in New York City to examine social networks and other factors associated with physical activity and explore participants' perceptions about how the pandemic affected their physical activity. Participants (n = 49) completed in-person, egocentric social network interviews between January and June 2019 and virtual follow-up egocentric social network interviews between May and November 2021.

Effects of multi directional chin tuck against resistance exercise on tongue pressure and thickness and suprahyoid muscle activity.

The chin tuck against resistance (CTAR) exercise is a therapeutic method developed to activate and strengthen the oropharyngeal muscles related to swallowing in patients experiencing post-stroke dysphagia. However, existing CTAR exercises could be improved by considering the complex characteristics of the suprahyoid muscles. To investigate the efficacy of multidirectional (md-) CTAR on tongue pressure and suprahyoid muscle activity in older adults.
