Passive immunization involves the administration of antibodies against a given agent to a susceptible individual for the purpose of preventing or treating an infectious disease due to that agent. A general principle of passive antibody therapy is that it is more effective when used for prophylaxis
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate a PET tracer (68Ga-Citrate) that can localize the origin of patients diagnosed with fever of unknown origin (FUO) using a PET/MRI scanner. We hope to learn if this can detect FUO better than with the present nuclear imaging standard of care (67Ga
The purpose of this study is to determine the immune response from the new Shingrix vaccine in UC patients on tofacitinib monotherapy in comparison to other UC therapies. the investigators plan to determine this by vaccinating IBD patients on (a) tofacitinib monotherapy, (b) anti-TNF monotherapy,

Tissue-invasive helminth parasites infect close to 500 million people worldwide and are associated with strong T helper (Th)2 responses and regulatory networks that downregulate potentially protective Th1 responses. The two common tissue invasive helminth parasites are Wuchereria bancrofti, that
Volatile anaesthetics including sevoflurane, desflurane, and isoflurane are often used during general anaesthesia for caesarean delivery. The cost effectiveness of isoflurane anaesthesia1 for caesarean delivery is widely used at many centres including the authors' centre, where general anaesthesia
