Meaning: This study found that SARS-CoV-2 infection may be associated with an increased risk of perinatal complications; this information can help inform treatment of the infection during pregnancy, aid patients in understanding the risks of these complications, and support the recommendation for vaccination of pregnant individuals and those...
Semen Proteomics of COVID-19 Convalescent Men Reveals Disruption of Key Biological Pathways Relevant to Male Reproductive Function
Source : https://doi.org/10.1021/acsomega.1c06551
A considerable section of males suffered from COVID-19, with many experiencing long-term repercussions. Recovered males have been documented to have compromised fertility, albeit the mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the...
The major pathways involved in reproductive functions, such as sperm–oocyte recognition, testosterone response, cell motility regulation, adhesion regulation, extracellular matrix adhesion, and endopeptidase activity, were downregulated in COVID-19-recovered patients according to bioinformatics analysis. Furthermore, the targeted approach...
Meaning: The findings suggest that persons with immune dysfunction are at much higher risk for contracting a breakthrough infection and thus should use nonpharmaceutical interventions (eg, mask wearing) and alternative vaccination approaches (eg, additional dose or immunogenicity testing) even after full vaccination.

The analysis found the following:
- Vaccinated IBD patients showed high levels of antibody response, known as seroconversion, two weeks after the first vaccine, indicating a strong, positive response to the vaccine. The response was even higher after two doses, as compared with one dose.
- Vaccinated IBD patients did not experience a higher...
