Summary: Early life exposures to influenza viruses may imprint a hemagglutinin group-specific signature on immunity that impacts future responses to infection or vaccination. We assessed the administration of a live attenuated influenza virus (LAIV) vaccine in children. Two LAIV formulations (2016–1...

The study objective was to compare the ability of Brix values and the D2Dx immunity test to predict the mortality risk of calves under 30 days of age. Heifer calves at 2–3 days of age were enrolled from two farms: Farm A, which has a low calf mortality rate (n = 849, 2.9% mortality), and Farm B, whi...

Introduction. In the context of a pandemic of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19), research on the peculiarities of the formation of an immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in patients who have been ill and vaccinated is of particular relevance. However, most studies are currently devoted to evaluating...

Currently, there are two major theories regarding the pathogenesis of sepsis: hyperimmune and hypoimmune. The hyperimmune theory suggests that a cytokine storm causes the symptoms of sepsis. On the contrary, the hypoimmune theory suggests that immunosuppression causes the manifestations of sepsis. B...
