Background: Monoclonal antibody therapy for Covid-19 springs up all over the world and get some efficiency. This research aims to explore the treating effect of BRII-196(Ambavirumab) plus BRII-198(Lomisivir) on Covid-19.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort research, patients received standard care or plus BRII-196 /BRII-198 monoclonal antibodies. General comparison of clinical indexes and prognosis between Antibody Group and Control Group was made. Further, according to the antibody using time and patients' condition, subgroups included Early antibody group, Late antibody group, Mild Antibody Group, Mild Control Group, Severe Antibody Group and Severe Control Group.
Results: Length of stay(LOS) and interval of Covid-19 nucleic acid from positive to negative of Antibody Group were 12.0(IQR 9.0-15.0) and 14.0(IQR 10.0-16.0) days, less than those(13.0 (IQR 11.0-18.0) and 15.0 (IQR 12.8-17.0) days) of Control Group(p = 0.004, p = 0.004). LOS(median 10days) of Early Antibody Group was the shortest, significantly shorter than that of Control Group (median 13days)(p < 0.001). Interval(median 12days) of Covid-19 nucleic acid from positive to negative of Early Antibody Group also was significantly shorter than that of Control Group(median 15days) and Late Antibody Group(median 14days)(p = 0.001, p = 0.042). LOS(median 12days) and interval(median 13days) of Covid-19 nucleic acid from positive to negative of Mild Antibody Group was shorter than that of Mild Control Group(median 13days; median 14.5days)(p = 0.018, p = 0.033).
Conclusion: The neutralizing antibody therapy, BRII-196 plus BRII-198 could shorten LOS and interval of Covid-19 nucleic acid from positive to negative. However, it didn't show efficacy for improving clinical outcomes among severe or critical cases.

Background: poses a considerable global public health challenge. In Egypt, approximately 60% of the inhabitants in the Northern and Eastern areas of the Nile Delta are affected by this parasite, whereas the Southern region experiences a significantly lower infection rate of 6%.
Aim: Construction of an immune phage display Nbs library based on the VHH framework for selecting -specific Nbs for seeking cost-effective, sensitive, and specific diagnostic tools for rapidly detecting mansoni.

Infection by human herpes simplex virus type 1 and type 2 (HSV-1/2) is common globally though with wide regional variability. Seroepidemiology of HSV-1/2 infections is of utmost importance in formulating control strategies, but there is a paucity of data from many regions of India. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of anti-HSV-1/2 antibodies in Uttarakhand and adjoining areas and to study its pattern and distribution in different subgroups.

Lewis antibodies, such as anti-Le and anti-Le, are commonly encountered in routine immunohematology. They are typically IgM in nature and are generally considered clinically insignificant, as they rarely cause hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTRs) or hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). However, rare cases have been reported where anti-Lewis antibodies caused mild transfusion reactions.

Autoimmune polyendocrine syndromes (APS) is a rare group of disorders caused by impaired function of multiple endocrine glands due to disruption of immune tolerance. Of which, type 2 (APS-2) is the most common. Glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is the rate-limiting enzyme for the synthesis of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Objectives: The feasibility of corticosteroid withdrawal (CW) for Takayasu arteritis (TAK) remains uncertain. Two autoantibodies (Abs) are identified against endothelial protein C receptor (EPCR) and scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-BI) in TAK, determining its three subgroups. This study aimed to evaluate CW using tocilizumab (TCZ) and its association with the Ab profile.
