An investigation of endometrial vascularity in normally menstruating women and those in other physiological states using 3D ultrasound imaging by Khan, Ammar Ahmed

“…The uterine and endometrial volume in the postnatal group were nearly double that of the luteal group (P value <0.01 and 0.014, respectively). There was a significant decrease in flow index in the postnatal group compared to the luteal group (P < 0.01), suggesting low flow intensity in the postnatal group. …”

Reinfections in COVID-19 Patients: Impact of Virus Genetic Variability and Host Immunity by Fakhroo, Aisha

“…Reinfection was attributed to several viral and/or host factors, including (i) underlying immunological comorbidities; (ii) low antibody titers due to the primary infection or vaccination; (iii) rapid decline in antibody response after infection or vaccination; and (iv) reinfection with a different SARS-CoV-2 variant/lineage. Infections after vaccination were also reported on several occasions, but mostly associated with mild or no symptoms. …”
