No cost-effectiveness information of preventive strategies for mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of hepatitis B virus (HBV) has existed for policy decision making. This study aimed to compare the cost-effectiveness of alternative strategies to prevent MTCT of HBV in Vietnam. Cost-utility analysis using a hybrid decision-tree and Markov model were performed from healthcare system and societal perspectives.

Inequalities in ownership and availability of home-based vaccination records in 82 low- and middle-income countries.

BMJ Glob Health

Department of Immunization, Vaccines, and Biologicals, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.

Introduction: Home-based records (HBRs) are widely used for recording health information including child immunisations. We studied levels and inequalities in HBR ownership in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) using data from national surveys conducted since 2010.

Methods: We used data from national household surveys (Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) and Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS)) from 82 LMICs.

The recent advancements in cancer immunotherapy have spotlighted the potential of natural killer (NK) cells, particularly chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-transduced NK cells. These cells, pivotal in innate immunity, offer a rapid and potent response against cancer cells and pathogens without the need for prior sensitization or recognition of peptide antigens. Although NK cell genetic modification is evolving, the viral transduction method continues to be inefficient and fraught with risks, often resulting in cytotoxic outcomes and the possibility of insertional mutagenesis.

A Neutrophil Extracellular Traps-Related Signature Predicts Clinical Outcomes and Identifies Immune Landscape in Ovarian Cancer.

Department of Gynecology, School of Medicine, Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Hospital, Tongji University, Shanghai, China.

Ovarian cancer (OvCa) is the most lethal gynaecology malignancies worldwide. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), net-like protein structures produced by activated neutrophils and DNA-histone complexes, have a central role in tumours, though haven't been fully explored in OvCa. We obtained transcriptome data from TCGA-OvCa database (n = 376) as training, ICGC-OvCa database (n = 111) as validation and GTEx database (n = 180) as controls.

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is an important environmental pollutant that disturbs the immune balance of the maternal-fetal interface (MFI) and is also a common environmental factor for the formation of cleft palate (CP). Therefore, the purpose is to investigate whether TCDD can cause CP by disrupting the immune balance of the maternal-fetal interface. Fifteen C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to three groups: control group, TCDD group, and TCDD plus Freund's complete adjuvant (FCA) (TCDD + FCA) group.
