description: Background: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) is crucial for controlling HIV-1 infection through wide-scale treatment as prevention and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Potent tenofovir disoproxil fumarate-containing regimens are increasingly used to treat and prevent HIV, although few data exist for frequency and risk factors of acquired drug resistance in regions hardest hit by the HIV pandemic. We aimed to do a global assessment of drug resistance after virological failure with first-line tenofovir-containing ART. Methods: The TenoRes collaboration comprises adult HIV treatment cohorts and clinical trials of HIV drug resistance testing in Europe, Latin and North America, sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. We extracted and harmonised data for patients undergoing genotypic resistance testing after virological failure with a first-line regimen containing tenofovir plus a cytosine analogue (lamivudine or emtricitabine) plus a non-nucleotide reverse-transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI; efavirenz or nevirapine). We used an individual participant-level meta-analysis and multiple logistic regression to identify covariates associated with drug resistance. Our primary outcome was tenofovir resistance, defined as presence of K65R/N or K70E/G/Q mutations in the reverse transcriptase (RT) gene. Findings: We included 1926 patients from 36 countries with treatment failure between 1998 and 2015. Prevalence of tenofovir resistance was highest in sub-Saharan Africa (370/654 [57%]). Pre-ART CD4 cell count was the covariate most strongly associated with the development of tenofovir resistance (odds ratio [OR] 1·50, 95% CI 1·27–1·77 for CD4 cell count
"Translational Agency in Liang Shiqiu's Vernacular Sonnets," Shakespeare's Global Sonnets: Translation, Adaptation, Performance, ed. Jane Kingsley-Smith and W. Reginald Rampone, Jr. (Palgrave, 2023), pp. 161-179

description: Like Virginia Woolf's Orlando, Shakespeare's Sonnets challenge the binaries between gender and between the vernacular and the literary. Translators take up this challenge and turn it into an opportunity for humanist interpretations of literature, as in the case of Taiwanese essayist Liang Shiqiu's (1903–1987) translation. Widely known in the Sinophone world as the only poet to have single-handedly translated and annotated all of Shakespeare's works into vernacular Chinese, Liang uses translations of the Western canon to (1) promote the written vernacular (baihua wen) during a time when classical Chinese was regarded as the preferred vehicle for literature; and (2) to render the sonnets more gender neutral. Based on W. J. Craig's Oxford edition (a 1943 reprint), Liang's annotated translation of the Sonnets gloss over what he considers unpalatable sexual references. The translation also brushes aside the (then sensitive) question of a male speaker asking a young man to reproduce in Sonnets 1–17. Since gendered pronouns are sometimes interchangeable in the Chinese language, Liang avoided having to assign male or female identities to a speaker in the poems. While Liang pursued a gender-neutral vernacular translation with a conservative agenda, his version turns out to be ahead of his time, as the revisionist approaches of Paul Edmondson and Stanley Wells demonstrate the addressees in many sonnets cannot be gendered because the context is fluid and ambiguous.

description: Many strategies have been applied to increase seasonal influenza vaccination; however, gaps in coverage remain. We synthesized the evidence on effectiveness of implementation strategies to increase seasonal influenza vaccination among U.S. adults. Studies performed from February 2010–August 2023 in the United States, focused on seasonal influenza vaccination, and measuring uptake and coverage were included. Guidance from Cochrane was followed. Interventions were mapped to Expert Recommendations for Implementing Change strategies. A total of 1,585 non-duplicate records were identified, full-text screening was performed for 353 records, and 51 studies met inclusion criteria. Among these studies, implementation strategies included those that engaged consumers, trained and educated stakeholders, and supported providers. Considerable heterogeneity was found in the study setting, populations, design, and methods. Substantial study variation limits the ability to conclude which strategies are most effective at increasing influenza vaccination uptake and coverage in U.S. adults.

description: Metasurfaces are broadly defined as artificially engineered material interfaces that have the ability to determinately control the amplitude and phase signatures of an incident electromagnetic wave. Subwavelength sized optical scatterers employed at the planar interface of two media, introduce abrupt modifications to impinged light characteristics. Arbitrary engineering of the optical interactions and the arrangement of the scatterers on plane, enable ultra-compact, miniaturized optical systems with a wide array of applications (e.g. nanoscale and nonlinear optics, sensing, detection, energy harvesting, information processing and so on) realizable by the metasurfaces. However, maturation from the laboratory to industry scale realistic systems remain largely elusive despite the expanding reach and vast domains of functionalities demonstrated by researchers. A large part of this multi-faceted problem stems from the practical constraints posed by the commonly used plasmonic materials that limit their applicability in devices requiring high temperature stability, robustness in varying ambient, mechanical durability, stable growth into nanoscale films, CMOS process compatibility, stable bio-compatibility, and so on. Aiming to create a whole-some solution, my research has focused on developing novel, high-performance, functional plasmonic metasurface devices that utilize the inherent benefits of various emerging and alternative material platforms. Among these, the two-dimensional MXenes and the refractory transition metal nitrides are of particular importance. By exploiting the plasmonic response of thin films of the titanium carbide MXene (Ti3C2Tx) in the near infrared spectral window, a highly broadband metamaterial absorber has been designed, fabricated and experimentally demonstrated. In another work, high efficiency photonic spin Hall Effect has been experimentally realized in robust phase gradient metasurface devices based on two different refractory transition metal nitrides –titanium nitride (TiN) and zirconium nitride (ZrN). Further, taking advantage of the refractory nature of these plasmonic nitrides, a metasurface based temperature sensor has been developed that is capable of remote, optical sensing of very high temperatures ranging up to 1200oC.

description: Vergi yükü terimi, literatürde çeşitli anlamlarda kullanılmaktadır. Yapılan çalışmada, vergi yükü terimi ile toplam vergi yükü kavramı ifade edilmiştir. Vergi yükü, iki yöntem ile hesaplanabilmektedir. Hesaplama yöntemlerinden ilkinde sadece vergi gelirleri dikkate alınmakta, hesaplama yöntemlerinden ikincisinde ise, vergi gelirlerine ilave olarak vergi benzeri gelirler de dikkate alınmaktadır. Vergi yükünün, ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisi oldukça önemlidir. Ülkeler, vergi teşviki ile ilgili politikaları uygulayarak ekonomik sistemde bulunan sermaye miktarını kendilerine çekmeye çalışmaktadırlar. Bu nedenle, diğer ülkeler de sermaye çekebilmek adına bu yönde politikalar uygulayabilmektedirler. Yapılan bu çalışmada, Ekonomik büyüme ile vergi yükü arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmak için, modele enflasyon değişkeni ilave edilerek VAR (Vector Autoregression) modelinden yararlanılmıştır. Model oluşturulurken, değişkenlerin durağanlık düzeylerini ölçmek amacıyla ADF (Augmented Dickey-Fuller) ve PP (Phillips-Perron) birim kök testleri kullanılmıştır. Testler neticesinde birim kökün var olup olmadığı test edildikten sonra, değişkenler arasındaki nedenselliğin belirlemesi amacıyla Granger nedensellik analizi ve etkileri incelemek için etki-tepki analizleri uygulanmıştır. Ulaşılan sonuçlara bakıldığında, vergi politikalarının ekonomik büyüme sürecinde kritik bir role sahip olduğu ve enflasyonla etkileşim içinde şekillendiği ortaya konulmuştur. Bu bağlamda, sürdürülebilir büyüme politikaları tasarlanırken vergi yükü ve fiyat istikrarının dengeli bir şekilde yönetilmesi gerektiği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Zur Verbesserung des Ausbruchsmanagements und der Prävention ist es sinnvoll, die aktuelle Literatur zu Ausbrüchen in NICUs für S. aureus inklusive MRSA regelmäßig zu analysieren. Der hier vorgelegte Beitrag aktualisiert und erweitert eine 2007 publizierte Übersicht von Gastmeier et al. und analysiert NICU-Ausbrüche durch S. aureus sowie deren Kontrolle.
description: In terms of the unique risk profile of the patients and the morbidity associated with S. aureus infections in this vulnerable patient population, the literature on outbreaks of S. aureus (including MRSA) in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) needs to be analyzed separately from reports derived from other intensive care units. With the objective of updating important information for those involved in outbreak management and fostering preventive efforts, this article summarizes the results of a systematic literature analysis, referring to an earlier publication by Gastmeier et al. It focuses on NICU outbreaks caused by S. aureus (including MRSA) and on controlling them.

description: Despite a lack of a traditional cinema culture, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), has recently witnessed an increase in film production. This rise can be attributed to a number of factors, not least of which, is the opening of movie theaters, the establishment of international film festivals and the arrival of film companies. These ventures have helped nurture a nascent industry at its beginnings, promote a cinema culture and led to a rise in the number of Emirati filmmakers.  These recent UAE productions are also an attempt at constructing the current Emirati identity, which finds itself at a crossroads between a past that for many needs to be preserved and the future which the young country aspires to be part of.  In addition, some of the works, such as the short films produced by Nāyla Al-Khāja, call for social change, highlighting problems faced by this rapidly developing nation. The first section of the article begins with a brief history of Emirati cinema and a discussion on a number of short films and documentaries to highlight the development of film in the UAE, before examining the emergence and prevalence of ‘lighter’ popular genres, namely comedy and horror. These popular genres not only offer glimpses into the culture, but also play a role in defining the current identity.

description: This bibliometric and visualization study provides a comprehensive analysis of global research hotspots and trends in DNA vaccine research from 2014 to 2024. By employing data sourced from the Web of Science Core Collection, we identified a total of 3,600 articles. Our analysis reveals a declining trend in annual publications. Active countries, institutions, journals, and authors were identified, with China, the Pasteur Network, the Vaccine Journal, and David B Weiner being the most prolific contributors. Keywords cluster analysis distinguished four major research directions: infectious disease and immunity, viral challenge and vaccine development, optimization of DNA vaccine delivery systems, and cancer and immunotherapy research. The literature co-citation analysis revealed four major research hotspots, including DNA vaccines for Zika virus, human papillomavirus (HPV), and COVID-19, as well as safety, efficacy, and immunogenicity studies of DNA vaccines. Concurrently, the burst citation analysis identified emerging themes, including the development of DNA vaccines for COVID-19, Ebola, and MERS-CoV, as well as innovations in antigen design and delivery technologies. This study offers valuable insights into the evolution and future directions of DNA vaccine research, emphasizing its importance for global public health and the potential to address current and future health challenges.

description: Cryptococcus neoformans and C. gattii are pathogenic basidiomycetous yeasts and the commonest cause of fungal infection of the central nervous system. Cryptococci are typically haploid but several inter-species, inter-varietal and intra-varietal hybrids have been reported. It has a bipolar mating system with sexual reproduction occurring normally between two individuals with opposite mating types, α and a. This study set out to characterize hybrid isolates within the C. neoformans/C. gattii species complex: seven unisexual mating intra-varietal VNI/VNII (αAAα) and six novel inter-varietal VNII/VNIV (aADα). The URA5-RFLP pattern for VNII/VNIV (aADα) differs from the VNIII (αADa) hybrids. Analysis of the allelic patterns of selected genes for AD hybrids showed 79% or more heterozygosis for the studied loci except for CBS132 (VNIII), which showed 50% of heterozygosity. MALDI-TOF MS was applied to hybrids belonging to different sero/mating type allelic patterns. All hybrid isolates were identified as belonging to the same hybrid group with identification scores ranging between 2.101 to 2.634. All hybrids were virulent when tested in the Galleria mellonella (wax moth) model, except for VNII/VNIV (aADα) hybrids. VNI/VGII hybrids were the most virulent hybrids. Hybrids recovered from larvae manifested a significant increase in capsule and total cell size and produced a low proportion (5–10%) of giant cells compared with the haploid control strains. All strains expressed the major virulence factors—capsule, melanin and phospholipase B—and grew well at 37°C. The minimal inhibitory concentration of nine drugs was measured by micro-broth dilution and compared with published data on haploid strains. MICs were similar amongst hybrids and haploid parental strains. This is the first study reporting natural same sex αAAα intra-varietal VNI/VNII hybrids and aADα inter-varietal VNII/VNIV hybrids.

description: Here, we report a case of a 51-year-old man with acute pericardial tamponade requiring emergency pericardiocentesis after he suffered from sore throat, headache, malaise, and sweats for two weeks. Serological analyses revealed increased mumps IgM and IgG indicating an acute mumps infection whereas other bacterial and viral infections were excluded. In addition, MRI revealed atypical swelling of the left submandibular gland. Whereas mumps has become a rare entity in children due to comprehensive vaccination regimens in western civilizations, our case highlights mumps as an important differential diagnosis also in adults, where the virus can induce life-threatening complications such as pericardial tamponade.

description: COVID-19 vaccination rates are decreasing despite vaccination being the most effective tool against severe disease from COVID-19. From October 1, 2022, to February 1, 2023, we conducted a cross-sectional study among adults in the Vaccine Safety Datalink about attitudes and beliefs regarding bivalent COVID-19 Omicron booster vaccine (hereafter referred to as COVID-19 bivalent vaccine) stratifying by vaccination status and race and ethnicity. Analysis was weighted for response and selection bias. The response rate was 27% (385/1430); 33% [95% CI: 21%–44%] of respondents were ‘fully vaccinated’ (had received COVID-19 bivalent vaccine), 54% [42%−67%] were partially vaccinated, and 13% [7%−19%] were unvaccinated. Fully vaccinated adults were more likely to consider COVID-19 bivalent vaccine ‘very effective’ (64%, [43%−86%]) at preventing hospitalization due to COVID-19 than partially (31%, [12%−50%]) or unvaccinated (2%, [0%−6%]) adults. Fully vaccinated adults were more likely to report COVID-19 bivalent vaccine was ‘very safe’ (83%, [69%−98%]) than partially (43%, [23%−63%]) or unvaccinated adults (2%, 0%−6%). Non-Hispanic White adults were more likely to report COVID-19 bivalent vaccine was ‘very safe’ (71%, [54%−87%]) than Non-Hispanic Black (36%, [21%−50%]) and Hispanic (26%, [7%−45%]) adults. A dose–response effect between vaccination status and perceptions of COVID-19 bivalent vaccine safety and effectiveness was observed, with fully vaccinated respondents having the most favorable attitudes. Racial and ethnic differences in perceived vaccine safety were also found. Improved communication about vaccine effectiveness and safety is key to improving low vaccination rates.

description: In Germany, routine childhood varicella vaccination was implemented in 2004 with two doses recommended since 2009. We used an immunisation information system based on countrywide health insurance claims data to analyse vaccine effectiveness (VE) and factors influencing VE. We applied proportional hazard models to estimate VE under various conditions and compared the risk of acquiring varicella among unvaccinated children in regions with high vs low vaccination coverage (VC). Among 1.4 million children we identified 29,404 varicella cases over a maximum follow-up of 8 years post-vaccination. One-dose VE was 81.9% (95% confidence interval (CI): 81.4–82.5), two-dose VE 94.4% (95% CI: 94.2–94.6). With dose one given 1–27 days after measles-containing vaccine (MCV), one-dose VE was 32.2% (95% CI: 10.4–48.6), two-dose VE 92.8% (95% CI: 84.8–96.6). VE was not associated with age at vaccination (11–14 vs ≥ 15 months), time since vaccination, or vaccine type. Unvaccinated children had a twofold higher risk of acquiring varicella in low VC regions. Our system generated valuable data, showing that two-dose varicella vaccination provides good protection for at least 8 years. Unvaccinated children benefit from herd effects. When the first varicella vaccine dose is given shortly after MCV, a second dose is essential.

description: The partition of British India into two sovereign independent nations of India and Pakistan in 1947 was one of the most defining moments of the socio-political course of the sub-continent. The fight for independence from colonial rule and the rise of nationalism rooted in the religious discourse of two prominent religious communities- Hindus and Muslims, led to a precarious situation in the general atmosphere of the nation. It was even more pronounced in the case of women whose voices were marginalised and underrepresented in the discourse.  Building on the theories of precarity and applying the theories of feminist geography, this paper aims to investigate how, through the everyday materiality of heritage spaces and historical memory, Muslim women tried to cope with the precarity of the time. It further aims to highlight the role of tangible and intangible heritage and memory in making sense of place in the select partition writings by Muslim women.

description: Hintergrund: Aufgrund des Polio-Ausbruchs in Syrien und der steigenden Anzahl von Asylsuchenden aus Syrien in Deutschland 2013 empfahl das Robert Koch-Institut am 1.11.2013 im Rahmen der bestehenden Impfempfehlungen für Asylsuchende vordringlich die Polioimpfung syrischer Asylsuchender. Für syrische Asylsuchende unter drei Jahren wurde zusätzlich ein Stuhlscreening auf Poliovirusausscheidung empfohlen. Ziel: Dieser Beitrag evaluierte die Umsetzung beider Empfehlungen in den deutschen Erstaufnahmeeinrichtungen (EAE), um Erkenntnisse zur Durchführung von Impfungen in EAE gewinnen und zukünftige Empfehlungen anpassen zu können. Methode: Alle deutschen EAE erhielten einen elektronischen Fragebogen, in dem für den Zeitraum vom 1.11.2013 bis 31.1.2014 um folgende Informationen gebeten wurde: allgemeine Angaben zur EAE und zur Durchführung von Impfungen, Haupthindernisse bei der Empfehlungsumsetzung, Zahlen zu in der EAE angekommenen, geimpften und auf Poliovirusausscheidung untersuchten Asylsuchenden sowie Umsetzbarkeit und Bewertung der Empfehlung und der begleitenden mehrsprachigen Informationsblätter. Ergebnisse und Diskussion: Alle 20 identifizierten EAE antworteten. Im Studienzeitraum kamen 33.874 Asylsuchende in den EAE an. Im Mittel besaßen, nach Angaben der EAE, 1,6 % der Asylsuchenden einen Impfpass. Alle EAE begannen zeitnah mit der Polioimpfung syrischer Asylsuchender unter drei Jahren; acht EAE erreichten hier Impfquoten von ≥ 80 %. Beim Stuhlscreening waren dies fünf von 19 EAE. 11 EAE bewerteten beide Empfehlungen als „sehr gut/gut umsetzbar“. Personalmangel und Sprachbarrieren, welche als Haupthindernisse der Umsetzung genannt wurden, könnten in zukünftigen Empfehlungen durch Zusammenarbeit mit Hilfsorganisationen und Einsatz von Informationsmaterial in weiteren Sprachen, wie fünf EAE vorschlugen, gemindert werden.
Do Queer Theory and Victorian Studies Still Have Anything to Learn from Each Other?

description: This essay argues that an antiracist, anticolonialist Victorian studies must remain open to universalizing claims of the kind found in early works of queer theory, particularly Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's Epistemology of the Closet (1990). Although recent work in queer studies (as well as literary studies generally) finds inspiration in Sedgwick's late-career turn to the more modest notion of “reparative reading,” strong knowledge claims are necessary to disrupt the colonial matrix of power that systematically renders both racism and heteronormativity invisible. Rereading Epistemology in light of postcolonial theories of comparison, I argue that, although Sedgwick does not address how the late Victorian “crisis of homo/heterosexual definition” takes place within the overall colonial system of power, she nevertheless inhabits a critical position remarkably similar to what Walter Mignolo calls “the border epistemology” of “decolonial thinking.” This entails making universalizing claims that promote the emancipation of disenfranchised groups but also rejecting the imperialist fantasy of critical neutrality in favor of political commitment and historical self-awareness. I end by putting the Sedgwick of Epistemology in dialogue with critical race theorist Sylvia Wynter to suggest how scholars might integrate their respective critical approaches by analyzing the figure of “the human” in Victorian literature and culture.

description: Sparsentan has been approved for reducing proteinuria in adult patients with primary IgA nephropathy (IgAN) at risk of rapid disease progression, yet comprehensive studies evaluating its drug safety framework are lacking. Adverse event (AE) reports following the market release of sparsentan were collected from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration AE Reporting System. Disproportionate analysis was used to identify previously unrecognized positive novel signals at both the system organ class and preferred term levels. Additionally, analysis on clinical priorities and subgroup analysis were conducted. A total of 504 patients with IgAN were included. Two novel system organ classes and 14 novel preferred terms were identified. Hypotension and dizziness were established as moderate clinical priority events. Males had a higher relative risk of nausea, peripheral edema, feeling abnormal, decreased blood pressure, and hypotension, while females were at greater risk for fatigue, pain, increased blood creatinine, dizziness, and somnolence. Among those aged 18–45, the relative risk of experiencing fatigue, pain, and dizziness was higher, individuals aged 45 and older had a higher relative risk of peripheral edema, decreased blood pressure, and hypotension. Based on the available AE reporting data, sparsentan exhibits a favorable safety profile, with no high-priority clinical events identified. Our findings offer valuable insights to optimize the use of sparsentan and understand its potential side effects.

description: During the recent Ebola outbreak in West Africa several international mobile laboratories were deployed to the mainly affected countries Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia to provide ebolavirus diagnostic capacity. Additionally, imported cases and small outbreaks in other countries required global preparedness for Ebola diagnostics. Detection of viral RNA by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction has proven effective for diagnosis of ebolavirus disease and several assays are available. However, reliability of these assays is largely unknown and requires serious evaluation. Therefore, a proficiency test panel of 11 samples was generated and distributed on a global scale. Panels were analyzed by 83 expert laboratories and 106 data sets were returned. From these 78 results were rated optimal and 3 acceptable, 25 indicated need for improvement. While performance of the laboratories deployed to West Africa was superior to the overall performance there was no significant difference between the different assays applied.

description: Francisella tularensis is an intracellular pathogen for many animals causing the infectious disease, tularemia. Whereas F. tularensis subsp. holarctica is highly pathogenic for humans, F. novicida is almost avirulent for humans, but virulent for mice. In order to compare metabolic fluxes between these strains, we performed 13C-labeling experiments with F. tularensis subsp. holarctica wild type (beaver isolate), F. tularensis subsp. holarctica strain LVS, or F. novicida strain U112 in complex media containing either [U-13C6]glucose, [1,2-13C2]glucose, [U-13C3]serine, or [U-13C3]glycerol. GC/MS-based isotopolog profiling of amino acids, polysaccharide-derived glucose, free fructose, amino sugars derived from the cell wall, fatty acids, 3-hydroxybutyrate, lactate, succinate and malate revealed uptake and metabolic usage of all tracers under the experimental conditions with glucose being the major carbon source for all strains under study. The labeling patterns of the F. tularensis subsp. holarctica wild type were highly similar to those of the LVS strain, but showed remarkable differences to the labeling profiles of the metabolites from the F. novicida strain. Glucose was directly used for polysaccharide and cell wall biosynthesis with higher rates in F. tularensis subsp. holarctica or metabolized, with higher rates in F. novicida, via glycolysis and the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (PPP). Catabolic turnover of glucose via gluconeogenesis was also observed. In all strains, Ala was mainly synthesized from pyruvate, although no pathway from pyruvate to Ala is annotated in the genomes of F. tularensis and F. novicida. Glycerol efficiently served as a gluconeogenetic substrate in F. novicida, but only less in the F. tularensis subsp. holarctica strains. In any of the studied strains, serine did not serve as a major substrate and was not significantly used for gluconeogenesis under the experimental conditions. Rather, it was only utilized, at low rates, in downstream metabolic processes, e.g., via acetyl-CoA in the citrate cycle and for fatty acid biosynthesis, especially in the F. tularensis subsp. holarctica strains. In summary, the data reflect differential metabolite fluxes in F. tularensis subsp. holarctica and F. novicida suggesting that the different utilization of substrates could be related to host specificity and virulence of Francisella.

description: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are the algorithm of choice for various applications that require modeling large datasets, such as image classification, object detection and natural language processing. DNNs present highly parallel workloads
that lead to the need of custom hardware accelerators. Deep Learning (DL) models specialized on different tasks require a programmable custom hardware, and a compiler to efficiently translate various DNNs into an efficient dataflow to be executed on the accelerator. Given a DNN oriented custom instructions set, various compilation phases are needed to generate efficient code and maintain generality to support
many models. Different compilation phases need to have different levels of hardware awareness so that it exploits the hardware’s full potential, while abiding with the hardware constraints. The goal of this work is to present a compiler workflow and its hardware aware optimization passes for a custom DNN hardware accelerator. The compiler uses model definition files created from popular frameworks to generate custom instructions. Different levels of hardware aware code optimizations are applied to improve performance and data reuse. The software also exposes an interface to run the accelerator implemented on various FPGA platforms, proving an end-to-end solution.

description: SARS-CoV-2 vaccination campaigns on current endemic situation would benefit from vaccine alternatives with easy logistics and accessibility, sustained response and cross-reactivity against emerging variants. Herein, safety and immunogenicity of PHH-1V, adjuvanted recombinant RBD-based vaccine, as fourth dose for the most prevalent SARS-CoV-2 variants in Spain in subjects ≥18 years was investigated for 6 months in HIPRA-HH-2 open-label extension study. Subjects received a fourth dose of PHH-1V after either two BNT162b2 doses plus one PHH-1V dose (cohort 1) or three BNT162b2 doses (cohort 2). As regulatory endpoint, neutralization titers were investigated for PHH-1 V as fourth dose vs BNT162b2 as third dose in subjects receiving previous BNT162b2-based regimens. PHH-1 V immunogenicity (GMT) was investigated against Beta, Delta, and Omicron BA.1, BA.4/5 and XBB.1.5 on Days 14, 98 and 182 post-immunization. Two hundred and eighty-eight subjects received PHH-1V. Neutralizing antibodies against Omicron BA.1 at Day 14 significantly increased after the PHH-1V as fourth booster vs the third BNT162b2 booster (GMT ratio 0.43 (95% CI: 0.28; 0.65; p-value < .0001)). PHH-1V fourth booster induced a significant increase in neutralizing titers vs baseline (GMFR on Day 14 [95% CI]: Beta 6.96 [5.23, 9.25]; Delta 6.27 [4.79, 8.22]; Omicron BA.1 9.21 [5.57, 15.21]; Omicron BA.4/5 11.80 [8.29, 16.80]; Omicron XBB.1.5 5.22 [3.97, 6.87]), remaining significantly higher up to 6 months. The most frequent adverse events were injection site pain and fatigue. As conclusion, PHH-1V booster induced sustained humoral and cellular immune response against Beta, Delta variants and cross reactivity against distant Omicron subvariants and could be an appropriate strategy for implementing heterologous vaccination campaigns.

description: Vaccine hesitancy poses a significant challenge to worldwide public health and has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to heightened polarization and the spread of misinformation. Addressing vaccine hesitancy requires multifaceted strategies in which healthcare professionals (HCPs) play a critical role. Nonetheless, HCPs may also be hesitant toward vaccination. The 31-item original Pro-VC-Be tool, designed to measure the psychosocial determinants of vaccine attitudes in HCPs, was first validated in France, French-speaking Belgian regions, and Quebec (Canada). The validity of a short-form version was evaluated and found to be comparable to that of the long-form. Given differing vaccination recommendations and the changing pandemic context, assessing the tool’s stability among diverse Canadian HCPs is crucial. Relying on the original short version of the Pro-VC-Be tool, a cross-sectional online survey was conducted among various Canadian HCPs (N = 544) to explore the psychosocial determinants that impact vaccination-related behaviors (frequency of general vaccination activity, vaccine recommendations activity, and willingness to recommend vaccines). The findings underscore three crucial dimensions – vaccine confidence, proactive efficacy, and trust in authorities – as robust predictors of positive professional practice and attitudes, and thus globally support the results obtained in previous studies using the Pro-VC-Be tool. HCPs with higher vaccine confidence, high proactive efficacy, and higher trust in authorities were 80% and 180% more likely to recommend vaccines to their patients and 80% more likely to have received a COVID-19 vaccine than other HCPs, respectively. By identifying the root causes of vaccine hesitancy among HCPs, adapted strategies can be developed.
