AI Article Synopsis
- Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major health threat for infants and young children, leading to significant disease burdens.
- The Chinese Preventive Medicine Association has created a working group of experts to develop guidelines for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of RSV infections based on international practices.
- Their goal is to establish an expert consensus on passive immunization strategies for RSV in China to enhance the effectiveness of health professionals in managing the virus.
Article Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, which has the very heavy disease burdens, is the most common viral pathogen that seriously threatens the health of infants and young children. In order to better guide and standardize the clinical diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and immunization prevention and control of RSV infection in China, the Chinese Preventive Medicine Association jointly organized multidisciplinary experts to form a special working group, drawing on the implementation experience of foreign passive immunization prevention of RSV, integrating the existing evidence and the latest progress as a problem oriented, and putting forward the expert consensus on the passive immunization prevention of infant RSV infection in China in the future. The aim is to answer some professional questions about RSV infection and its immunoprophylaxis, especially passive immunoprophylaxis, in order to provide reference for the practice of immunoprophylaxis for professionals in medical institutions, disease prevention and control institutions and community health service centers at all levels.

The rapid development and deployment of mRNA and non-mRNA COVID-19 vaccines have played a pivotal role in mitigating the global pandemic. Despite their success in reducing severe disease outcomes, emerging concerns about cardiovascular complications have raised questions regarding their safety. This systematic review critically evaluates the evidence on the cardiovascular effects of COVID-19 vaccines, assessing both their protective and adverse impacts, while considering the challenges posed by the limited availability of randomized controlled trial (RCT) data on these rare adverse events.

Treponema denticola, a bacterium that forms a "red complex" with Porphyromonas gingivalis and Tannerella forsythia, is associated with periodontitis, pulpitis, and other oral infections. The major surface protein (Msp) is a surface glycoprotein with a relatively well-established overall domain structure (N-terminal, central and C-terminal regions) and a controversial tertiary structure. As one of the key virulence factors of T.

Infection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the causative agent of gonorrhoea, causes significant morbidity worldwide and can have long-term impacts on reproductive health. The greatest global burden of gonorrhoea occurs in low- and middle-income settings. Global public health significance is increasing due to rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which threatens future gonorrhoea management.
