The following results were obtained by analyzing serum IgG, IgM and IgA of blood from the umbilical cord chiefly of small-for-date infants (term SFD infants): (1) The serum IgG level was higher in the infant's blood than in the mother's blood in the cases of appropriate-for-date infants (term AFD infants). Its fetus/ mother ratio was 1.25 +/- 0.22. (2) The fetus/mother ratios of IgG in term SFD infants and premature infants were lower than in term AFD infants. (3) The placental transmission of IgG increased as the gestation weeks went by, and its fetus/mother ratio reached 1.0 by the 38th week of pregnancy. (4) The serum IgM level was lower in term SFD infants than in term AFD infants. (5) Term SFD infants showed no difference of serum IgA level from that of term AFD infants.

A powder formulation for mucosal administration of mRNA-encapsulated lipid nanoparticles (mRNA-LNPs) is expected to be useful for respiratory diseases. Although freeze-drying is widely used to obtain solid formulations of mRNA-LNPs, highly hydrosoluble cryoprotectants, such as sucrose are necessary. However, sucrose is not a suitable excipient for inhalation powders because of its hygroscopic and deliquescence properties.

Objective: To observe prosthetic-associated subclinical thrombotic events (PASTE) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) by cardiac CTA, and assess their impact on long-term patient outcomes.
Materials: We prospectively and consecutively enrolled 188 patients with severe aortic stenosis treated with TAVI from February 2014 to April 2017. At 5 years, 61 of 141 survived patients who had completed annual follow-up CTA (≥ 5 years) were included.
The association between depressive symptoms and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein: Is body mass index a moderator?

Interventional Psychiatry Program, St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, M5B 1M4, Canada.
Objective: Depression and obesity are highly comorbid conditions with shared biological mechanisms. It remains unclear how depressive symptoms and body mass index (BMI) interact in relation to inflammation. This cross-sectional study investigated the independent associations of depressive symptoms and BMI with high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), as well as the moderating role of BMI on the depressive symptoms-hs-CRP association.
