A substantial part of mortality during the COVID-19-pandemic occurred among nursing home residents which caused alarm in many countries. We investigate nursing home mortality in relation to the expected mortality prior to the pandemic. This

CONCLUSIONS: TSPO-PET can be a valuable tool in the diagnostic and therapeutic monitoring of COVID-19-related encephalitis, particularly in cases where MRI scans are negative. Aggressive immunosuppressive therapy can lead to sustained remission.

Cyanometabolites are active compounds derived from cyanobacteria that include small low molecular weight peptides, oligosaccharides, lectins, phenols, fatty acids, and alkaloids. Some of these compounds may pose a threat to human and environment

Vaccines play a critical role in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. Future control of the pandemic requires improved vaccines with high efficacy against newly emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants and the ability to reduce virus transmission. Here we compare

Emerging severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants with antigenic changes in the spike protein are neutralized less efficiently by serum antibodies elicited by legacy vaccines against the ancestral Wuhan-1 virus

Due to the continuous evolution of SARS-CoV-2, the Omicron variant has emerged and exhibits severe immune evasion. The high number of mutations at key antigenic sites on the spike protein has made a large number of existing antibodies and vaccines

The SIR or susceptible-infected-recovered model is the standard compartment model for understanding epidemics and has been used all over the world for COVID-19. While the SIR model assumes that infected patients are identical to symptomatic and

There is an ongoing debate on the COVID-19 infection fatality rate (IFR) and the impact of COVID-19 on overall population mortality. Here, we addressed these issues in a community in Germany with a major superspreader event analyzing deaths over time

INTRODUCTION: Currently, the implementation of new therapeutic options for treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) considerably improved the outcome of this disease. However, patients affected by CLL are at higher risk for infections, due to
