“…Obstacles to the implementation of online learning activities have been identified through previous study, 8,14,16 but improvements to the implementation of online learning activities are still difficult to do due to limited resources. 20 Researchers apply importance performance analysis (IPA) to measure the satisfaction of each factor that exists in online practicums as well as strategic management in determining priorities for developing the quality of online learning activities.…”

Background: The education sector is adapting in order to suppress the spread of the Corona Virus-19 through distance learning policies. Universities are required to continue to carry out teaching and learning activities using online learning method, including medical education. Medical education has the characteristics of problem-based learning, which consists of theoretical lectures, tutorials, laboratory sessions, and skills labs for clinical skills. The implementation of online lectures needs to be evaluated with measurable instruments to identify obstacles and determine the direction of improvement. The study aims to determine the gap in the quality of online lecture services and the direction of service improvement using the importance-performance analysis method.Methods: This study was conducted by the survey method using a quantitative approach. Questionnaires were distributed to 250 students from 684 populations in the Sebelas Maret University medical study program. The results of the study were analyzed using Importance-Performance Analysis.Results: Out of the 24 attributes, the IPA analysis showed five aspects need to be improved. Attributes in quadrant I as main priorities are responsiveness of lecturers, responsiveness of education staff, technical assistance in online learning constraints, suitability of materials, access to contact lecturers, and communication between lecturers and students.Conclusion: According to the results of the importance-performance analysis method approach, student satisfaction will be achieved by improving services that are in quadrant I, which is the implementation of online learning.

“…For three years, the world has been challenged by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, and a tremendous global effort has been made to tackle it. At the same time, we face other major health threats, such as infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), which is a disease affecting approximately 38 million people [ 1 , 2 ].…”

Humoral Response after Two Doses of BNT162b2 mRNA Vaccine Has a Role in Predicting Response after Three Doses That Is Related to Plasma HIV Viremia and Nadir CD4+ Cell Count in HIV-Positive Patients

We investigated the spike IgG levels of HIV+ patients on antiretroviral therapy six months after they received their second dose (T2) and six months after the third dose (T3) of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine, as well as the influence of different levels of plasma HIV viremia of overall CD4+ cell count and nadir value on the humoral time course. One hundred eighty-four patients were enrolled. The median age was 55 years, the median CD4+ cell count was 639 cells/mm3 and the median nadir value was 258 cells/mm3. On the basis of all tests performed during the study period, persistently undetectable plasma HIV RNA (PUD) was found in 66 patients, low-level viremia (LLV) in 57 and ongoing viremia (OV) in 61. Serum levels of IgG antibodies against a trimeric S-protein antigen were tested with DiaSorin Liaison SARS-CoV-2 TrimericS IgG and the response was classified as optimal (>75th percentile), intermediate (50th–25th percentile) and low (<25th percentile). The frequencies of the three different patterns of plasma HIV viremia (PUD, LLV and OV) were comparable in patients with low, intermediate and optimal IgG response evaluated at T2, with no difference in overall CD4+ cell count or nadir count. At T3, 92.9% of patients achieved an optimal response: T2 response proved to be the most important factor in predicting T3 optimal response in patients with LLV and OV.A nadir value ≤ 330 cells/mm3 had 100% sensitivity in predicting a non-optimal response. In conclusion, we demonstrated the persistence of anti-spike IgG, with high serum levels occurring in most patients six months after the third dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine and a predictive role of humoral response at T2 in subjects with detectable plasma HIV viremia. Immunological alterations related to past immunodeficiency may persist despite immune reconstitution, and the nadir value could be a useful tool for elaborating personalized vaccine schedules.

Objective: To determine whether prepandemic sera from patients with Chagas disease recognise SARS-CoV-2 antigens. Materials and Methods: Forty sera from patients with Chagas disease were tested for the presence of IgG cross-reactivity against the nucleocapsid protein (NP) and spike (S) SARS-CoV-2 proteins by ELISA. Positive samples were tested again using a different ELISA and CLIA, both against NP. Results: None of the sera from patients with Chagas disease, previously confirmed as positive for the presence of anti-Trypanosoma cruzi antibodies reacted against the SARS-CoV-2 S protein, and six samples tested positive for the NP antigen (15%). The six positive samples were re-tested, five remained positive by ELISA and all were negative by CLIA. Conclusion: According to our data, false-positive results might be a concern in the detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in patients with Chagas disease.
