Background: Multiple outpatient therapies have been developed for COVID-19 in high-risk individuals, but solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients were not well represented in controlled clinical trials. To date, few comparative studies have evaluated outcomes between outpatient therapies in this population.
Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study using de-identified administrative claims data from OptumLabs Data Warehouse.

Background: Following maternal COVID-19 vaccination, the persistence of antibodies in sera and breast milk for mothers and infants is not well characterized. We sought to describe the persistence of antibodies through 2 months after delivery in maternal and infant serum and breast milk following maternal COVID-19 mRNA vaccination and to examine differences by receipt of booster dose during pregnancy or postpartum.
Methods: This is a prospective cohort study with enrollment from July 2021 to January 2022 at 9 US academic sites.

The Nipah virus (NiV) is an emerging pathogenic paramyxovirus that causes severe viral infection with a high mortality rate. This study aimed to model the effectual binding of marine sponge-derived natural compounds (MSdNCs) towards RNA-directed RNA polymerase (RdRp) of NiV. Based on the functional relevance, RdRp of NiV was selected as the prospective molecular target and 3D-structure, not available in its native form, was modelled.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) still causes death in elderly and immunocompromised individuals, for whom the sustainability of the vaccine response may be limited. Antiviral treatments, such as remdesivir or molnupiravir, have demonstrated limited clinical efficacy. Nirmatrelvir, an acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) major protease inhibitor, is clinically effective but has been associated with viral rebound and antiviral resistance.
