Convalescent plasma in patients receiving rituximab or ocrelizumab for multiple sclerosis or neuromyelitis Optica spectrum disorder with Covid-19: A multicenter retrospective study.

Background: Despite vaccination, patients receiving anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for multiple sclerosis (MS) or neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) have an increased risk of developing severe or protracted COVID-19. The aim of this study was to describe the effect of COVID-19 convalescent plasma (CCP) in patients with MS or NMOSD exposed to anti-CD20 and infected by SARS-CoV-2.

Methods: This French national, retrospective cohort study was conducted between November 2020 and June 2023.

Rapid resistance detection is reliable for prompt adaptation of isoniazid resistant tuberculosis management.

Objectives: Appropriate tuberculosis (TB) management requires anti-TB drugs resistance detection. We assessed the performance of rapid resistance detection assays and their impact on treatment adaptation, focusing on isoniazid resistant (Hr) TB.

Methods: From 2016 to 2022, all TB cases enrolled in 3 hospitals were reviewed for phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (p-DST) and genotypic DST (g-DST) performed by rapid molecular testing, and next generation sequencing (NGS).

Post-traumatic stress among COVID-19 survivors: A descriptive study of hospitalized first-wave survivors.

Introduction: The coronavirus Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Type 1 induces a severe respiratory disease, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). After Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Type 1 and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome infection, increased post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) rates were described.

Methods: This single-centred, prospective study aimed to evaluate the rates of PTSD in patients who were hospitalized for COVID-19.
