The impact of pre-transplant anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine in 20 recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) and/or their donors is reported here, showing that the persistence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies can be detected in almost all patients, whatever the type of vaccine used, and up to 9 months post transplant. Also, an anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein CD3+ T-cell response could be detected in six (35%) of 17 evaluable patients. This study provides a rationale to consider anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination of both recipients and donors before Allo-HSCT.

Introduction: The use of antibody titers against SARS-CoV-2, as a method of estimating subsequent infection following infection or vaccination, is unclear. Here, we investigate whether specific levels of antibodies, as markers of adaptive immunity, can serve to estimate the risk of symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 (re-) infection.
Methods: In this real-world study, laboratory data from individuals tested for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies under routine clinical conditions were linked through tokenization to a United States medical insurance claims database to determine the risk of symptomatic/severe SARS-CoV-2 infection outcomes.

The generalisability of critical illness molecular phenotypes to low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is unknown. We show that molecular phenotypes derived in high-income countries (hyperinflammatory and hypoinflammatory, reactive and uninflamed) stratify sepsis patients in Uganda by physiological severity, mortality risk and dysregulation of key pathobiological domains. A classifier model including data available at the LMIC bedside modestly discriminated phenotype assignment (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) 0.

The COVID-19 outbreak has led to notable developments in point-of-care (POC) diagnostic devices, as they can be valuable resources in identifying and managing the spread of the pandemic. Currently, the majority of techniques demand advanced laboratory equipment and professionals to execute precise, efficient, accurate, and sensitive testing. In this work, we report a new method to significantly enhance the sensitivity of microwave sensing of the SARS-CoV-2 virus by functionalizing the sensor surface using anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody-gold nanoparticle (AuNPs) conjugates.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in children is often asymptomatic, posing challenges in detecting infections. Additionally, factors contributing to infection remain poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate trends in anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) nucleocapsid antibody seroprevalence, the relationship between seroprevalence and parental perception of child infection, and factors related to COVID-19 in children.

The efficacy of antibody responses is inherently linked to paratope diversity, as generated through V(D)J recombination and somatic hypermutation. Despite this, it is unclear how genetic diversification mechanisms evolved alongside codon optimality and affect antibody expression. Here, we analyze germline immunoglobulin (IG) genes, natural V(D)J repertoires, serum IgG, and monoclonal antibody (mAb) expression through the lens of codon optimality.
