The PLSP summarizes results from the phase 2/3 KidCOVE trial examining mRNA-1273 (Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine) in children 6 through 11 years of age. This study reviewed results from two parts of the KidCOVE clinical trial: Part 1 of the study was performed to select a dose of mRNA-1273 (50 μg or 100 μg) in children. A 50-μg dose was selected for further evaluation based on minimally unwanted side effects and sufficient antibodies (immune responses) against SARS-CoV-2. Part 2 of the study further evaluated the 50-μg dose of mRNA-1273 and compared it with placebo in children. Two 50-μg doses of mRNA-1273 were well tolerated with no new safety concerns. Two 50-μg doses also produced antibodies (immune responses) similar to those in young adults who received mRNA-1273 (100 μg) in a separate phase 3 study (the COVE trial). Study findings suggest that two 50-μg doses of mRNA-1273 were well-tolerated, and can prevent COVID-19 in children 6 through 11 years of age. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT04796896 ( ClinicalTrials.gov )

Aim: To evaluate human adenovirus (HAdV) types associated with respiratory infections, nasopharyngeal aspirations (NPA) were collected from children under 2 years old that were hospitalized for acute respiratory tract infections (ARTI) during 2018–2019. Methods: PCR was used for viral screening and select samples were then sequenced by Sanger sequencing. Results: Among 194 samples, 30 were HAdV-positive and 14 were chosen for further sequencing. HAdV-F41, C2 and C5 circulated simultaneously with an unexpected predominance of HAdV-F41. HAdV infection occurred year-round, with a peak in winter and early spring. The age group most affected was those younger than 6 months. Conclusion: Continued surveillance of HAdV infections is necessary and the contribution of HAdV-F41 in ARTI should be studied.

Objective: To evaluate healthcare resource use for respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in Japan. Methods: Using JMDC and Medical Data Vision (MDV) claims databases, we retrospectively evaluated cost and length of hospital/intensive care unit stays in RSV-diagnosed cohorts of infants (<12 months) and older adults (OAs, ≥60 years). We analyzed the usage and costs of palivizumab in infants. Results: Mean costs among those hospitalized were $2823 (USD); $2851; and $6609 (¥131 [JPY]/$) in JMDC-infant (n = 13,752); MDV-infant (n = 22,142); and MDV-OA cohorts (n = 165), respectively. The mean cost was higher in those aged <1 month, with risk factors, and severe RSV disease. Mean cumulative cost of palivizumab prophylaxis in JMDC infant cohort was $6796/year. Conclusion: RSV causes enormous economic burden in infants and OAs.

Aim: This study aimed to present the characteristics and poor prognostic factors of Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) patients. Materials & methods: Adult patients (>18 years) with CCHF were included in this retrospective study. Demographics, risk scores and laboratory findings of survivors and nonsurvivors were compared. Results: Fifteen (9.2%) of 163 CCHF patients were nonsurvivors and had a higher Severity Score Index (p < 0.001), Severity Grade Score (p < 0.001) and De Ritis ratio (aspartate transaminase/alanine transaminase) (p < 0.001). De Ritis ratio was >3 in 10.1% of survivors and 53.3% of nonsurvivors (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, De Ritis ratio >3 (OR: 5.428, p = 0.045) and SGS (OR: 1.776, p = 0.005) were found as predictive factors. Conclusion: De Ritis ratio may predict prognosis in combination with severity risk scores in CCHF.

Aim: Epstein–Barr virus-related Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) is characterized by EBNA1 expression. Previous studies have hypothesized a correlation between Burkitt's lymphoma and endemicity of Euphorbia spp. whereas others have suggested it possesses antiviral activity. We aimed to investigate the effect of Euphorbia spp. on BL. Methods: AutoDock Vina, GROMACS 2020.4 and VEGA-QSAR were used for in silico assessments. Results: Daphnoretin had a higher binding affinity than the EBNA1 inhibitor VK0044, maintained a steady ligand RMSD value and displayed the largest negative binding energy at the EBNA1 active site. Conclusion: Daphnoretin, a phytochemical of Euphorbia spp., had superior inhibitory activity of EBNA1 over other tested chemicals, suggesting it is an effective therapeutic drug candidate.

Aim: This study investigated the correlation between anti-thyroid peroxidase (anti-TPO) antibody levels and human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) viral load as triggers for Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). Materials & methods: The study included 60 HT patients, 60 patients with non-autoimmune thyroid disease, and 60 subjects with normal thyroid function. HHV-6 viral loads in serum samples were detected using real-time PCR. Results: A significant correlation was found between the increase in viral load and increased levels of anti-TPO antibodies in serum samples from HT patients (p = 0.001). Conclusion: The aim of this study was to explore the potential involvement of HHV-6A in the onset of HT, with the goal of identifying improved treatment options for affected individuals.

Aim: DIAMANTE is a retrospective and prospective, non-interventional, cohort study to describe the effectiveness of darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) in real clinical practice in Italy. Patients & methods: The study enrolled 246 patients: group 1 included patients treated with a darunavir-based regimen (n = 81); group 2 included patients who received antiretroviral treatment not including darunavir before D/C/F/TAF (n = 43); and group 3 included naive patients (n = 122). Effectiveness was evaluated as the virological response at week 48. Results: The D/C/F/TAF virological response rate was 72.1–78.8% and was obtained despite longer follow-up intervals due to the coronavirus 2019 pandemic. The safety of D/C/F/TAF was good as was the overall patient satisfaction and quality of life. Conclusion: This study confirmed the effectiveness and tolerability of D/C/F/TAF in a real-life setting both in naive and pretreated patients, with and without darunavir.

Aim: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common cause of high-grade lesions and carcinogenesis such as cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer (CC). The prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV infection varies greatly in different geographical areas. Patients & methods: This study enrolled 92,932 patients from January 2017 to December 2021 and analyzed the prevalence and distribution of HPV genotypes. Results: 18038 (19.41%) specimens were HPV-positive. No significant difference in infection rates between men and women (19.05 vs 19.41%). The most prevalent HPV subtypes are HPV52, HPV58, HPV16, HPV53, HPV51 and HPV81. Single infection of HPV has dominated in HPV-positive patients. Conclusion: Our results show that the prevalence and distribution of HPV subtypes have obvious region-specific and age-specific characteristics.

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the pooled prevalence and potential correlation between Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection and brain cancers. Materials & methods: We searched for relevant studies in main databases and analyzed the heterogeneity, odds ratio and corresponding 95% CI among all studies using STATA software V.14. Results: Fourteen articles were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of EBV among brain cancer patients was 9% (95% CI: 3–16%; I2 = 91.06%). An association was found between EBV and brain cancer (OR: 6.90 [95% CI: 1.81–26.28]; I2 = 0%]). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate a significant association between EBV infection and brain cancer, suggesting EBV infection is a potential risk factor for brain cancer development.

Materials & methods: We searched for relevant studies in main databases and analyzed the heterogeneity, odds ratio and corresponding 95% CI among all studies using STATA software V.14. Results: Fourteen articles were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled prevalence of EBV among brain cancer patients was 9% (95% CI: 3–16%; I2 = 91.06%). An association was found between EBV and brain cancer (OR: 6.90 [95% CI: 1.81–26.28]; I2 = 0%]). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate a significant association between EBV infection and brain cancer, suggesting EBV infection is a potential risk factor for brain cancer development.","PeriodicalId":12505,"journal":{"name":"Future Virology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46701399","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
