    Differences in the immune response elicited by two immunization schedules with an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in a randomized phase 3 clinical trial

    Nicolás MS Gálvez, Gaspar A Pacheco ... Alexis M Kalergis
    The humoral and cellular immune responses were evaluated for two immunization schedules for the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine, CoronaVac, with two doses separated by 2 or 4 weeks, showing that these responses are mostly similar, with differences in neutralization capacities.

    Starting to have sexual intercourse is associated with increases in cervicovaginal immune mediators in young women: a prospective study and meta-analysis

    Sean M Hughes, Claire N Levy ... Alison C Roxby
    The immune system in the vagina becomes more active when young women begin to have sexual intercourse, and this immune activity could influence the risk of acquiring sexually transmitted infections.

    The ellipse of insignificance, a refined fragility index for ascertaining robustness of results in dichotomous outcome trials

    David Robert Grimes
    An ellipse of insignificant analysis is a robust method for ascertaining the strength of even large dichotomous outcome trials in biomedical science, and is a novel means to detect potentially dubious results and research fraud.

    Cannabinoid signaling modulation through JZL184 restores key phenotypes of a mouse model for Williams–Beuren syndrome

    Alba Navarro-Romero, Lorena Galera-López ... Andres Ozaita
    A mouse model of Williams–Beuren syndrome allowed us to assess the endocannabinoid system and the impact of targeting the monoacyl glycerol lipase in modulating key phenotypes such as cognitive and hypersocial phenotype as well as the cardiac phenotype.
