Tozinameran, a messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) vaccine, has a favorable safety profile and is highly efficacious in preventing COVID-19. Adverse reactions such as pain at the vaccination site, fever, malaise, headache, rash, and anaphylaxis have been commonly reported for mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines. We report a case involving a 71-year-old Japanese woman who developed interstitial lung disease (ILD) after receiving an mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccine. We also review case reports of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine-associated ILD. Dyspnea or hypoxia that develops within 1-3 days after COVID-19 mRNA vaccination should be differentiated from ILD. Further studies to elucidate mechanisms and risk factors of rare adverse reactions such as ILD are warranted.

Idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), or myositis, are a heterogeneous group of autoimmune disorders that can affect multiple organs, including the muscles, skin, joints, lungs, heart, and gastrointestinal tract. While new-onset myositis has been reported following SARS-CoV-2 infection, cases associated with COVID-19 vaccination remain rare. We describe a unique case of severe progressive edematous facial myositis resembling angioedema in a 22-year-old man, with onset one to two weeks after receiving dual SARS-CoV-2 and influenza vaccinations.

The emergence of new variants and diverse vaccination regimens have raised uncertainty about vaccine effectiveness against SARS-CoV-2. This study aims to investigate the impact of Omicron primo-/reinfection and primary vaccination schedules on the immunogenicity of an mRNA-based booster dose over a six-month period. We conducted a prospective cohort study to assess the durability and level of antibodies of 678 healthcare workers fully vaccinated against COVID-19.

Subungual melanoma is a variant of acral lentiginous melanoma that arises from the nail matrix. Subungual melanomas present unique clinical challenges due to diagnostic difficulties and the lack of a standardized protocol for surveillance, also, there are no evidence-based studies that determine the ideal frequency and duration of clinical and dermoscopy follow-ups in patients with longitudinal melanonychia. This is highlighted by a case of longitudinal melanonychia in a 53-year-old patient who underwent malignant transformation to subungual melanoma after a biphasic growth.

Background: The unrelenting emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants has significantly challenged the efficacy of existing COVID-19 vaccines. Enhancing the stability and immunogenicity of the spike protein is critical for improving vaccine performance and addressing variant-driven immune evasion.
Methods: We developed an mRNA-based vaccine, RV-1730, encoding the Delta variant spike protein with the S6P mutation to enhance stability and immunogenicity.
