Conventional dendritic cell 2 links the genetic causal association from allergic asthma to COVID-19: a Mendelian randomization and transcriptomic study - Journal of Big Data
Recent evidence suggests that allergic asthma (AA) decreases the risk of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, the reasons remain unclear. Here, we systematically explored data from GWAS (18 cohorts with 11,071,744 samples), bulk transcriptomes (3 cohorts with 601 samples), and single-cell transcriptomes (2 cohorts with 29 samples) to reveal the immune mechanisms that connect AA and COVID-19. Two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis identified a negative causal correlation from AA to COVID-19 hospitalization (OR = 0.968, 95% CI 0.940–0.997, P = 0.031). This correlation was bridged through white cell count. Furthermore, machine learning identified dendritic cells (DCs) as the most discriminative immunocytes in AA and COVID-19. Among five DC subtypes, only conventional dendritic cell 2 (cDC2) exhibited differential expression between AA/COVID-19 and controls (P
The Daily — Experiences of Canadians with long-term symptoms following COVID-19
As of June 2023, the majority of Canadians had been infected by the virus causing COVID-19. Most people recover from their symptoms and are able to carry on with their lives, however, for many others, symptoms persist for months, often impacting their ability to work and their quality of life overall.
Ventricular Tachycardia as a Late Complication of COVID-19 in a Young Patient with no History of Cardiovascular Disease
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus has been associated with heart disease. Reports have shown an increased incidence of arrhythmias following COVID-19. In fact, cardiac injury is suggested to be a driver of the arrhythmogenic substrate, and some case reports showed development of ventricular arrhythmias following COVID-19 in acute settings. However, recent literature is defining a new entity: long-haulers COVID, as many patients are reporting at least one residual symptom after COVID-19 resolution (1
). In this context, we report the case of a patient who developed ventricular tachycardia after COVID-19 resolution, presenting as a cardiac manifestation of long-hauler COVID-19.

Statistical analysis of three data sources for Covid-19 monitoring in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany
In Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany, a system of three data sources has been established to track the Covid-19 pandemic. These sources are the number of Covid-19-related hospitalizations, the Covid-19 genecopies in wastewater, and the prevalence derived from a cohort study. This paper presents an extensive comparison of these parameters. It is investigated whether wastewater data and a cohort study can be valid surrogate parameters for the number of hospitalizations and thus serve as predictors for coming Covid-19 waves. We observe that this is possible in general for the cohort study prevalence, while the wastewater data suffer from a too large variability to make quantitative predictions by a purely data-driven approach. However, the wastewater data as well as the cohort study prevalence are able to detect hospitalizations waves in a qualitative manner. Furthermore, a detailed comparison of different normalization techniques of wastewater data is provided. ### Competing Interest Statement The authors have declared no competing interest. ### Funding Statement This work has been supported by the Ministry for Science and Health of Rhineland-Palatinate. ### Author Declarations I confirm all relevant ethical guidelines have been followed, and any necessary IRB and/or ethics committee approvals have been obtained.

Hybrid immunity to SARS-CoV-2 arises from serological recall of IgG antibodies distinctly imprinted by infection or vaccination
We used plasma IgG proteomics to study the molecular composition and temporal durability of polyclonal IgG antibodies triggered by ancestral SARS-CoV-2 infection, vaccination, or their combination ("hybrid immunity"). Infection, whether primary or post-vaccination, mainly triggered an anti-spike antibody response to the S2 domain, while vaccination predominantly induced anti-RBD antibodies. Immunological imprinting persisted after a secondary (hybrid) exposure, with 60% of the ensuing serological response originating from the initial antibodies generated during the first exposure. We highlight one instance where hybrid immunity arising from breakthrough infection resulted in a marked increase in the breadth and affinity of a highly abundant vaccination-elicited plasma IgG antibody, SC27. With an intrinsic binding affinity surpassing a theoretical maximum (KD 5 pM), SC27 demonstrated potent neutralization of various SARS-CoV-2 variants and SARS-like zoonotic viruses (IC50 ∼0.1–1.75 nM) and provided robust protection in vivo . Cryo-EM structural analysis unveiled that SC27 binds to the RBD class 1/4 epitope, with both VH and VL significantly contributing to the binding interface. These findings suggest that exceptionally broad and potent antibodies can be prevalent in plasma and can largely dictate the nature of serological neutralization. ### Competing Interest Statement R.S.B., G.G., J.J.L., G.C.I., and W.N.V. are inventors on a provisional U.S. patent application for mAb SC27 and other new antibodies described in this manuscript, entitled "Broadly neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies that target the SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain (RBD)" (63/491,270).

Long COVID is associated with severe cognitive slowing: a multicentre cross-sectional study
Together, these results robustly demonstrate pronounced cognitive slowing in people with PCC, which distinguishes them from age-matched healthy individuals who previously had symptomatic COVID-19 but did not manifest PCC. This might be an important factor contributing to some of the cognitive impairments reported in patients with PCC.
Die Entstehung von JN.1 und ihre Auswirkungen auf die COVID-Pandemie
DMZ – FORSCHUNG ¦ Lena Wallner ¦ In diesem Artikel geben führende Gesundheitsforscher, darunter: Suman Majumdar, Associate Professor und Chief Health Officer - COVID and Health Emergencies am Burnet Institute, Brendan Crabb, Director and CEO des Burnet Institute, Emma Pakula, Senior Research and Policy Officer am Burnet Institute, und Stuart Turville, Associate Professor im Bereich Immunovirology and Pathogenesis Program am Kirby Institute, UNSW Sydney, einen Überblick über ihre Analysen und Erkenntnisse im Zusammenhang mit dem Artikel "The emergence of JN.1 is an evolutionary ‘step change’ in the COVID pandemic. Why is this significant?". Es wird auch auf ihre Hintergründe und mögliche Interessenkonflikte eingegangen, um Lesern eine transparente Basis für die präsentierten Informationen zu bieten. Der Beitrag hebt die Bedeutung von JN.1 als eine evolutionäre Wendung in der COVID-Pandemie hervor und erklärt, warum diese Entwicklung von globaler Relevanz ist. Seit seiner Entdeckung im August 2023 hat sich die JN.1-Variante von COVID weit verbreitet. Sie hat sich als dominante Variante in Australien und weltweit etabliert und treibt die größte COVID-Welle voran, die in vielen Ländern seit mindestens einem Jahr zu beobachten ist. Die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) klassifizierte JN.1 im Dezember 2023 als "Variante von Interesse" und betonte im Januar nachdrücklich, dass COVID eine fortwährende globale Gesundheitsbedrohung darstellt, die "weit übermäßig viel" vermeidbare Krankheiten verursacht und ein besorgniserregendes Potenzial für langfristige gesundheitliche Folgen birgt. JN.1 ist bedeutend. Erstens als Pathogen – es handelt sich um eine überraschend neuartige Version von SARS-CoV-2 (dem Virus, das COVID verursacht), das schnell andere zirkulierende Stämme (Omicron XBB) verdrängt. Es ist auch bedeutend für das, was es über die Evolution von COVID aussagt. Normalerweise ähneln SARS-CoV-2-Varianten denen davor recht stark, sammeln nur wenige Mutationen, die dem Virus einen bedeutenden Vorteil gegenüber seinem Ursprung geben. Gelegentlich, wie bereits bei der Entstehung von Omicron (B.1.1.529) vor zwei Jahren, tauchen jedoch Varianten auf, die markant unterschiedliche Merkmale aufweisen als ihre Vorgänger. Dies hat bedeutende Auswirkungen auf Krankheit und Übertragung. Bislang war nicht klar, ob diese "Schlüsselveränderung" der Evolution erneut eintreten würde, insbesondere vor dem Hintergrund des anhaltenden Erfolgs der stetig evolvierenden Omicron-Varianten. JN.1 ist so deutlich und verursacht eine derartige Welle neuer Infektionen, dass viele sich fragen, ob die WHO JN.1 als die nächste besorgniserregende Variante mit ihrem eigenen griechischen Buchstaben anerkennen wird. In jedem Fall sind wir mit JN.1 in eine neue Phase der Pandemie eingetreten. Woher stammt JN.1? Die Geschichte von JN.1 (oder BA.2.86.1.1) beginnt mit dem Auftreten seines Ursprungslinie BA.2.86 etwa Mitte 2023, der von einer viel früheren (2022) Omicron-Untervariante BA.2 stammt. Chronische Infektionen, die bei einigen Menschen monatelang (wenn nicht sogar jahrelang) ungelöst bleiben, spielen wahrscheinlich eine Rolle bei der Entstehung dieser Schlüsselveränderungsvarianten. Bei chronisch infizierten Menschen testet das Virus still und leise und behält schließlich viele Mutationen bei, die ihm helfen, Immunität zu umgehen und in diesem Menschen zu überleben. Für BA.2.86 führte dies zu mehr als 30 Mutationen im Spike-Protein (einem Protein auf der Oberfläche von SARS-CoV-2, das es ihm ermöglicht, sich an unsere Zellen zu binden). Die schiere Anzahl von Infektionen weltweit schafft die Voraussetzungen für eine bedeutende virale Evolution. SARS-CoV-2 hat weiterhin eine sehr hohe Mutationsrate. Entsprechend mutiert und entwickelt sich JN.1 selbst bereits schnell weiter. Wie unterscheidet sich JN.1 von anderen Varianten? BA.2.86 und nun JN.1 verhalten sich in Labortests auf zwei Arten einzigartig. Die erste betrifft die Art und Weise, wie das Virus Immunität umgeht. JN.1 hat mehr als 30 Mutationen im Spike-Protein geerbt. Es hat auch eine neue Mutation, L455S, erworben, die die Fähigkeit von Antikörpern (einem Teil der schützenden Reaktion des Immunsystems) verringert, sich an das Virus zu binden und eine Infektion zu verhindern. Die zweite betrifft Veränderungen in der Art und Weise, wie JN.1 in unsere Zellen eindringt und sich repliziert. Ohne auf die molekularen Details einzugehen, haben jüngste, hochkarätige Laboruntersuchungen aus den USA und Europa beobachtet, dass BA.2.86 Zellen aus der Lunge auf ähnliche Weise wie vor-Omicron-Varianten wie Delta betritt. In einem Kontrast dazu zeigen vorläufige Arbeiten des Kirby Institute in Australien unter Verwendung unterschiedlicher Techniken Replikationscharakteristika, die besser mit Omikron-Linien vereinbar sind. Weitere Forschung zur Klärung dieser unterschiedlichen Zelleintragsbefunde ist wichtig, da dies Auswirkungen darauf hat, wo das Virus bevorzugt im Körper repliziert, was die Schwere der Krankheit und die Übertragung beeinflussen könnte. Wie auch immer, diese Ergebnisse zeigen, dass sich JN.1 (und SARS-CoV-2 im Allgemeinen) nicht nur um unser Immunsystem herumarbeiten kann, sondern auch neue Wege findet, um Zellen zu infizieren und effektiv zu übertragen. Wir müssen weiter untersuchen, wie sich dies bei Menschen auswirkt und wie es sich auf klinische Ergebnisse auswirkt. Ist JN.1 schwerwiegender? Die Schlüsselveränderung von BA.2.86, kombiniert mit den immunumgehenden Merkmalen von JN.1, hat dem Virus einen globalen Wachstumsvorteil weit über die auf XBB.1 basierenden Linien hinaus verschafft, denen wir uns 2023 gegenübersahen. Trotz dieser Merkmale legen Beweise nahe, dass unser adaptives Immunsystem BA.286 und JN.1 immer noch effektiv erkennen und darauf reagieren kann. Aktualisierte monovalente Impfstoffe, Tests und Behandlungen bleiben gegen JN.1 wirksam. Es gibt zwei Elemente zur "Schwere": Erstens, ob es "intrinsisch" schwerwiegender ist (schwerere Krankheit bei einer Infektion in Abwesenheit von Immunität) und zweitens, ob das Virus eine größere Übertragung aufweist, was zu größeren Krankheiten und Todesfällen führt, einfach weil es mehr Menschen infiziert. Letzteres trifft sicherlich auf JN.1 zu. Wie geht es weiter? Wir wissen einfach nicht, ob dieses Virus auf einem evolutionären Weg ist, um zum "nächsten gewöhnlichen Schnupfen" zu werden oder nicht, noch haben wir eine Vorstellung davon, in welchem Zeitrahmen dies geschehen könnte. Während die Betrachtung der Trajektorien von vier historischen Coronaviren uns einen Einblick geben könnte, wohin wir uns bewegen könnten, sollte dies nur als ein möglicher Weg betrachtet werden. Die Entstehung von JN.1 unterstreicht, dass wir weiterhin eine andauernde Epidemie mit COVID erleben und dass dies für die absehbare Zukunft der Weg nach vorne ist. Wir befinden uns jetzt in einer neuen Pandemiephase: post-Notfall. Dennoch bleibt COVID die wichtigste Infektionskrankheit, die weltweit Schaden anrichtet, sowohl durch akute Infektionen als auch durch Long-COVID. Auf gesellschaftlicher und individueller Ebene müssen wir die Risiken akzeptieren, Welle um Welle von Infektionen zu akzeptieren, neu überdenken. Alles in allem unterstreicht dies die Bedeutung umfassender Strategien zur Reduzierung der COVID-Übertragung und -Auswirkungen, mit möglichst geringen Einschränkungen (wie sauberen Innenraumluftinterventionen). Die Menschen werden weiterhin dazu aufgefordert, aktive Schritte zum Schutz ihrer selbst und ihrer Mitmenschen zu unternehmen. Für eine bessere Pandemie-Vorbereitung auf aufkommende Bedrohungen und eine verbesserte Reaktion auf die aktuelle ist es entscheidend, dass wir die globale Überwachung fortsetzen. Die geringe Vertretung von Ländern mit niedrigem und mittlerem Einkommen ist ein besorgniserregender blinder Fleck. Intensivierte Forschung ist ebenfalls entscheidend.

Safety Monitoring of Bivalent COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines Among Recipients 6 months and Older in the United States
Importance Active monitoring of health outcomes after COVID-19 vaccination provides early detection of rare outcomes post-licensure. Objective To evaluate health outcomes following bivalent COVID-19 Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2) and Moderna (mRNA-1273.222) vaccination among individuals 6 months and older in the United States. Design Monthly monitoring of health outcomes from August 2022 to July 2023 in four administrative claims databases. Descriptive analyses monitored vaccine uptake, outcome counts and coadministration of bivalent COVID-19 and influenza vaccines. Sequential analyses tested for elevated risk of each outcome in a prespecified post-vaccination risk interval, or a period of hypothesized elevation based on clinical guidance, compared to a historical baseline. Participants and Exposures Persons 6 months and older who received a bivalent COVID-19 BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273.222 vaccine during the study period, with continuous enrollment in a medical insurance plan from the start of an outcome-specific clean interval to the COVID-19 vaccination date. Vaccines were identified using product-specific codes from medical coding systems. Health Outcomes Twenty outcomes were monitored in BNT162b2 vaccine recipients 6 months-4 years, and mRNA-1273.222 vaccine recipients 6 months-5 years. Twenty-one outcomes were monitored in BNT162b2 vaccine recipients 5-17 years and mRNA-1273.222 vaccine recipients 6-17 years. Eighteen outcomes were monitored in persons 18 years and older for both mRNA vaccines. Results Overall, 13.9 million individuals 6 months and older received a single bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. The statistical threshold for a signal was met for two outcomes in one database: anaphylaxis following bivalent BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273.222 vaccines in persons 18-64 years and myocarditis/pericarditis following bivalent BNT162b2 vaccines in individuals 18-35 years. There were no signals identified in young children. Conclusions Results were consistent with prior observations from published studies on COVID-19 vaccine safety. This study supports the safety profile of bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccines and the conclusion that the benefits of vaccination outweigh the risks. ### Competing Interest Statement Co-authors from U.S. Food and Drug Administration and Acumen LLC declared no conflicts of interests.

Post COVID-19 pulmonary fibrosis; a meta-analysis study : Annals of Medicine and Surgery
PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases were searched to identify English language studies published up to December 3, 2021. Results; The systematic search initially revealed a total of 618 articles - of which only 13 studies reporting 2018 patients were included in this study. Among the patients, 1047 (51.9%) were male and 971 (48.1%) were female. The mean age was 54.5 years (15–94). The prevalence of PCPF was 44.9%. The mean age was 59 years in fibrotic patients and 48.5 years in non-fibrotic patients. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was the only comorbidity associated with PCPF. Fibrotic patients more commonly suffered from persistent symptoms of dyspnea, cough, chest pain, fatigue, and myalgia (p-value 0.05). Factors related to COVID-19 severity that were associated with PCPF development included computed tomography score of ≥18, ICU admission, invasive/non-invasive mechanical ventilation, longer hospitalization period, and steroid, antibiotic and immunoglobulin treatments (p-value 0.05). Parenchymal bands (284/341), ground-glass opacities (552/753), interlobular septal thickening (220/381), and consolidation (197/319) were the most common lung abnormalities found in fibrotic patients. Conclusion, About 44.9% of COVID-19 survivors appear to have developed pulmonary fibrosis. Factors related to COVID-19 severity were significantly associated with PCPF development. HIGHLIGHTS Pulmonary fibrosis is a severe and frequently reported COVID-19 sequela.Its prevalence in COVID-19 survivors and risk factors are yet to be established.This meta-analysis aims to investigate the prevalence of post-COVID-19 pulmonary fibrosis and the potential risk factors....
Persistent Systemic Microbial Translocation and Intestinal Damage During Coronavirus Disease-19
Microbial translocation (MT) and intestinal damage (ID) are poorly explored in COVID-19. Aims were to assess whether alteration of gut permeability and cell integrity characterize COVID-19 patients, whether it is more pronounced in severe infections and whether it influences the development of subsequent bloodstream infection (BSI). Furthermore, we looked at the potential predictive role of TM and ID markers on Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission and in-hospital mortality. Over March–July 2020, 45 COVID-19 patients were enrolled. Markers of MT [LPB (Lipopolysacharide Binding Protein) and EndoCab IgM] and ID [I-FABP (Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein)] were evaluated at COVID-19 diagnosis and after 7 days. As a control group, age- and gender-matched healthy donors (HDs) enrolled during the same study period were included. Median age was 66 (56-71) years. Twenty-one (46.6%) were admitted to ICU and mortality was 22% (10/45). Compared to HD, a high degree of MT and ID was observed. ICU patients had higher levels of MT, but not of ID, than non-ICU ones. Likewise, patients with BSI had lower EndoCab IgM than non-BSI. Interestingly, patients with high degree of MT and low ID were likely to be admitted to ICU (AUC 0.822). Patients with COVID-19 exhibited high level of MT, especially subjects admitted to ICU. COVID-19 is associated with gut permeability.
