RSV reemergence in Argentina since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

TL;DR: The authors in this paper studied the genetic characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) circulating strains in paediatric patients in Buenos Aires, Argentina before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conserved T-cell epitopes of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) delivered by recombinant live attenuated influenza vaccine viruses efficiently induce RSV-specific lung-localized memory T cells and augment influenza-specific resident memory T-cell responses.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that LAIV vector-based vaccination can induce robust lung-localized T-cell immunity to the inserted T- cell epitope of a foreign pathogen, without altering the immunogenicity of the viral vector itself.

EDP-938, a novel nucleoprotein inhibitor of respiratory syncytial virus, demonstrates potent antiviral activities in vitro and in a non-human primate model.

TL;DR: EDP-938 as discussed by the authors is a non-fusion replication inhibitor of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) which is highly active against all RSV-A and B laboratory strains and clinical isolates tested in vitro in various cell lines and assays, with half-maximal effective concentrations (EC50s) of 21, 23 and 64 nM against Long (A), M37 (A) and VR-955 (B) strains, respectively, in the primary human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs).
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of goblet cells in viral pathogenesis.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors outline what is known about the enteric and respiratory viruses that target goblet cells, the direct and bystander effects caused by viral infection and how viral interactions with the mucus barrier can alter the course of infection.

Meta-Analysis in Clinical Trials*

TL;DR: This paper examines eight published reviews each reporting results from several related trials in order to evaluate the efficacy of a certain treatment for a specified medical condition and suggests a simple noniterative procedure for characterizing the distribution of treatment effects in a series of studies.

TL;DR: The Global Burden of Disease 2015 Study provides a comprehensive assessment of all-cause and cause-specific mortality for 249 causes in 195 countries and territories from 1980 to 2015, finding several countries in sub-Saharan Africa had very large gains in life expectancy, rebounding from an era of exceedingly high loss of life due to HIV/AIDS.

Global, regional, and national causes of child mortality in 2000-13, with projections to inform post-2015 priorities: an updated systematic analysis.

TL;DR: The authors' projection results provide concrete examples of how the distribution of child causes of deaths could look in 15-20 years to inform priority setting in the post-2015 era.
