A monoclonal antibody (mAb) and an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) for ornidazole (ONZ) detection were developed. ONZ was conjugated with cationic bovine serum albumin as a hapten to generate the artificial immunogens and coating antigens. BALB/c mice were immunized, and mAbs were obtained. The competitive inhibition curve of ic-ELISA was y=0.0438x-0.2101x+0.2925, with R=0.9941. The 50% inhibition concentration, the limit of detection, and limit of quality for ONZ were 0.15, 0.01, and 0.05µg/kg, respectively. The cross-reactivity of the mAbs to secnidazole was 0.33%. The recoveries were from 89.18% to 101.63% and the coefficient of variation was less than 7.15% in chicken, chicken liver, and honey samples, all of which had ONZ concentrations of 0.05 and 0.1μg/kg. Results showed that the ic-ELISA based on mAb could be used for the rapid detection for ONZ.

Our current prospective cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the effect of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs used in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity on retinal maturation and persistent avascular retina (PAR). Retinal imaging was performed with Optos confocal laser ophthalmoscopy for 100 patients aged 4 to 8 years who were screened and treated for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) during the neonatal period. The ROP examination findings (stage and zone) and treatment history (age in weeks at time of treatment and anti-VEGF drug used) from the neonatal period were reviewed.

In the past decade, the treatment paradigm for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has markedly shifted from traditional chemoimmunotherapy towards targeted therapies. A fixed-duration, targeted regimen with venetoclax, a potent oral BCL-2 inhibitor, combined with obinutuzumab, a glycoengineered type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (Ven-Obi), has become the standard to beat for time-limited therapy in CLL. Ven-Obi allows for the rapid induction of remissions with high rates of undetectable minimal residual disease (uMRD) in patients across different treatment settings.

Introduction: Tacrolimus-induced thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) causing acute kidney injury (AKI) without systemic features is a rare entity, particularly after non-renal solid organ transplantation.
Case Report: We describe the case of a patient with AKI after combined heart and lung transplantation. Renal biopsy revealed acute thrombotic microangiopathy which ultimately prompted initiation of eculizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeted against complement C5, with subsequent recovery in renal function.

Multiple myeloma (MM), a hematological malignancy which affects the monoclonal plasma cells in the bone marrow, is in rising incidence around the world, accounting for approximately 2 % of newly diagnosed cancer cases in the US, Australia, and Western Europe. Despite the progress made in the last few years in the available therapeutic options (e.g.

Brentuximab vedotin (BV)-bendamustine (90 or 120 mg/m2 day 1 and 2) every 28 days is an effective treatment for relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R HL) but associated to high toxicity especially for elderly patients. We conducted in St Louis Hospital, Paris, between 2015 and 2021 a retrospective single-center analysis of 44 patients with R/R HL treated with one-day BV-bendamustine (120 mg/m2) every 21 days. Sixteen percent of patients were ≥ 60 years old (yo).
