Mashup Score: 3Additional SARS-CoV-2 vaccine doses: a little is better than none - 14 hour(s) ago
Vaccination remains the only strategy to generate durable protective immunity against any infectious disease, but data for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination continues to highlight those receiving B-cell depleting therapies, glucocorticoids, and antiproliferative medications such as mycophenolate mofetil as those with the greatest attenuation of immune responses, resulting in an increased risk of breakthrough infections.1 More worrisome is that additional vaccine doses might not seroconvert a large proportion of these patients, particularly those receiving B-cell depleting therapies,2 although many of these observations were done in a small observation study setting.

Mashup Score: 3
A third vaccine dose improved the serological and T-cell response in the majority of patients who are immunocompromised. Individuals with chronic renal disease, lymphoid malignancy, on B-cell targeted therapies, or with no serological response after two vaccine doses are at higher risk of poor response to a third vaccine dose.

Mashup Score: 0Protecting patients with SLE against herpes zoster: time for early proactive vaccine counselling - 3 day(s) ago
Vaccination is an effective strategy to mitigate the risk and disease burden of herpes zoster (shingles). With the arrival of a recombinant subunit vaccine (Shingrix), in addition to the longer lasting, live-attenuated vaccine (Zostavax), a window of opportunity exists to optimise protection against herpes zoster in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases without risk of infection. However, since the recombinant zoster vaccine was introduced in 2018, data on the safety and effectiveness in patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases are scarce.

Mashup Score: 12
The herpes zoster subunit vaccine induces humoral and cellular immunity against herpes zoster with a good safety profile in patients with SLE. A larger study is warranted to assess the efficacy of vaccines to prevent herpes zoster in patients with SLE.

A 47-year-old woman came to our institution with a 1-month history of breast erythema, swelling, and a new 1 cm purple skin plaque on her left breast which rapidly increased in size over the following weeks. She had no history of breast trauma. 6 years earlier, she had been treated for luminal A invasive ductal carcinoma in this breast with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by breast-conserving surgery, adjuvant radiation therapy, and oral tamoxifen. Which of the following diagnoses should be primarily
