Evaluating the Safety and Satisfaction of HYAcorp MLF2 for Noninvasive Buttock Augmentation: A Multicenter Study.

Background: The increasing demand for noninvasive gluteal augmentation using hyaluronic acid (HA) gel highlights the need for research into its safety and effectiveness. This study aimed to assess the safety and satisfaction levels of patients and physicians regarding HA body filler for buttock enhancement. It also explores variations in outcomes across different injection sites and among different practitioners.

Antigen affinity and site of immunization dictate B cell recall responses.

Protective antibodies against HIV-1 require unusually high levels of somatic mutations introduced in germinal centers (GCs). To achieve this, a sequential vaccination approach was proposed. Using HIV-1 antibody knockin mice with fate-mapping genes, we examined if antigen affinity affects the outcome of B cell recall responses.

Expression and purification of E140 protein antigen fragments of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium berghei for serological assays.

Malaria, a life-threatening disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, continues to pose a significant global health threat, with nearly 250 million infections and over 600 000 deaths reported annually by the WHO. Fighting malaria is particularly challenging partly due to the complex life cycle of the parasite. However, technological breakthroughs such as the development of the nucleoside-modified mRNA lipid nanoparticle (mRNA-LNP) vaccine platform, along with the discovery of novel conserved Plasmodium antigens such as the E140 protein, present new opportunities in malaria prevention.

Clinical Outcomes and Predictors of Poor Prognosis in Non-aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A 10-Year Cohort Analysis.

Introduction A large majority of spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAH) are attributed to aneurysm rupture, though the cause remains unknown in a notable percentage of cases. Non-aneurysmal SAH (naSAH) is generally thought to follow a more benign clinical course than aneurysmal SAH (aSAH); however, similar complications may occur, and poor outcomes are still possible. Given the limited research on naSAH, this study aims to characterize these patients and correlate clinical and radiographic findings with outcomes.

Predictive factors for ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement in aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhages.

Introduction: Aneurysmatic subarachnoid hemorrhages (aSAH) are life-threatening events with high mortality and morbidity. Hydrocephalus is a common complication, initially managed with an external ventricular drain (EVD). Persistent hydrocephalus often requires ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) placement to relieve intracranial pressure and prevent further neurological damage.
