Plasma antibodies from humans infected with zoonotic simian foamy virus do not inhibit cell-to-cell transmission of the virus despite binding to the surface of infected cells.
Zoonotic simian foamy viruses (SFV) establish lifelong infection in their human hosts.Despite repeated transmission of SFV from nonhuman primates to humans, neither transmission between human hosts nor severe clinical manifestations have been reported.We aim to study the immune responses elicited by chronic infection with this retrovirus and previo
Cost-effectiveness and economic analysis of antibiotics: a comprehensive study utilizing ICER and ACER metrics
Background: Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) is a valuable tool in healthcare used to evaluate the economic efficiency of antibiotic treatments by comparing their costs with clinical outcomes, such as cost per life saved or quality-adjusted life days (QALDs) gained.This approach aids in informed decision-making, highlights price variations, and id
