Investigating Gender and Sex Differences in Immune Responses Through Vaccination of Transgender and Cisgender Persons
Sexual differences are a well-established source of biological variation in immune system functioning, with men often displaying lower adaptive immune responses (e.g. antibody production) to infections and vaccinations compared to women. The impact of sex and gender on immune responses and immune functioning warrants more in-depth investigation. This study is …
Adjunctive Doxycycline for Central Nervous System Tuberculosis
Although tuberculosis is now considered a treatable disease, central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS-TB) when managed with the current standard-of-care (SOC), still has mortality rates ranging from 30-50% even in tertiary hospital centers. At present, the SOC for the management of CNS-TB is anti-tuberculous therapy with adjunctive corticosteroids. In CNS-TB, the …
