Background: It remains unclear whether physicians should accept transplantation offers for candidates with a positive SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction test due to the potential risk of severe infection after initiating immunosuppressive therapy.
Methods: A multicenter observational study was conducted in 19 French solid organ transplantation units. Patients on the waiting list for liver or kidney transplants who had a positive SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction nasopharyngeal swab at the time of transplantation were recorded.

Son yıllarda pandemi nedeniyle virüslerin tanı ve tedavisine yönelik terapötik yöntemlerin geliştirilmesi ve antivirallerin test edilmesi amacıyla çok sayıda in vitro çalışma yapılmaktadır. Literatürde SARS-CoV-2'nin modellenebilmesi için HCoV-229E'nin kullanımının güvenli ve yeterli olup olmadığını inceleyen çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu sebeple bu çalışmada, BSL-2 şartlarında gerçekleştirilebilen HCoV-229E kültürü ve kantitasyon çalışmalarının, BSL-3 şartları gerektiren SARS-CoV-2 deneylerinde bir ön çalışma modeli olup olamayacağının antiviral etkinlik analizleri üzerinden araştırılması amaçlanmıştır.

With a high mortality rate, human-to-human transmission potential, and the widespread presence of bats, the natural reservoir, NiV remains a significant epidemic threat. Despite being a WHO priority pathogen, there has been no systematic effort to improve patient care for NiVD, leading to consistently poor outcomes.
