Abstract
Background NVX-CoV2373, a Covid-19 vaccine was developed in the USA with ∼90% efficacy. The same vaccine is manufactured in India after technology transfer (called as SII-NVX-CoV2373), was evaluated in this phase 2/3 immuno-bridging study. Methods This was an observer-blind, randomised, phase 2/3 study in 1600 adults. In phase 2, 200 participants were randomized 3:1 to SII-NVX-CoV2373 or placebo. In phase 3, 1400 participants were randomized 3:1 to SII-NVX-CoV2373 or NVX-CoV2373 (940 safety cohort and 460 immunogenicity cohort). Two doses of study products (SII-NVX-CoV2373, NVX-CoV2373 or placebo) were given 3 weeks apart. Primary objectives were to demonstrate non-inferiority of SII-NVX-CoV2373 to NVX-CoV2373 in terms of geometric mean ELISA units (GMEU) ratio of anti-S IgG antibodies 14 days after the second dose (day 36) and to determine the incidence of causally related serious adverse events (SAEs) through 180 days after the first dose. Anti-S IgG response was assessed using an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) and neutralizing antibodies (nAb) were assessed by a microneutralization assay using wild type SARS CoV-2 in participants from the immunogenicity cohort at baseline, day 22, day 36 and day 180. Cell mediated immune (CMI) response was assessed in a subset of 28 participants from immunogenicity cohort by ELISpot assay at baseline, day 36 and day 180. The total follow-up was for 6 months. Trial registration: CTRI/2021/02/031554. Findings Total 1596 participants (200 in Phase 2 and 1396 in Phase 3) received the first dose. SII-NVX-CoV2373 was found non-inferior to NVX-CoV2373 (anti-S IgG antibodies GMEU ratio 0.91; 95% CI: 0.79, 1.06). At day 36, there was more than 58-fold rise in anti-S IgG and nAb titers compared to baseline in both the groups. On day 180 visit, these antibody titers declined to levels slightly lower than those after the first dose (13-22 fold-rise above baseline). Incidence of unsolicited and solicited AEs was similar between the SII-NVX-CoV2373 and NVX-CoV2373 groups. No adverse event of special interest (AESI) was reported. No causally related SAE was reported. Interpretation SII-NVX-CoV2373 induced a non-inferior immune response compared to NVX-CoV2373 and has acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
The occurrence of ischemia of the digits or digital gangrene is a well-known complication of systemic autoimmune diseases, such as systemic sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and anti-phospholipid syndrome, among others. The pathophysiological mechanisms are small vessel vasculitis, vasospasm of Raynaud’s phenomenon, microthrombi due to antiphospholipid syndrome, and/or accompanying accelerated atherosclerosis. Digital ischemia can also occur in the context of disseminated bacterial infections and sepsis. We present here the case of a patient who had digital ischemia and positive antinuclear antibodies but without well-defined clinical features of a connective tissue disease. A diagnosis of undifferentiated connective tissue disease was made.

Abstract
Metastasis to the parotid gland accounts for 10%-16% of parotid malignancies. Head and neck malignancies constitute the major bulk of metastatic lesions to the parotid. The other common primaries include the breast, kidney, lung, and prostate. Metastasis from the lung to the parotid is a relatively rare occurrence whose exact percentage is not known. Though intralymphatic spread into the parotid is known, intraparenchymal spread through hematogenous route is rare. The presence of intraparenchymal spread of lung Adenocarcinoma to the contralateral parotid diagnosed on fine needle aspiration (FNA) makes it a case worth reporting, highlighting the utility of cell block preparation and immunohistochemistry for a precise and early diagnosis.

Abstract
Background Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a highly fatal syndrome especially in resource constrained settings. In this study we prospectively studied the aetiology of ARDS and its short-term outcome. Methods Consecutive adults with suspected ARDS were screened. ARDS was diagnosed by the Berlin criteria. Aetiology was determined clinically, and by imaging and microbiological investigations. Patients presenting with fever, prominent cough and expectoration had a throat swab tested for influenza H1N1 virus. Outcome was discharge from hospital or death. Results A total of 42 patients, mean age 42.6 years, were studied. All received mechanical ventilation. Thirteen (31%) had pulmonary ARDS: H1N1 virus infection (n = 5), pneumonia (n = 7) and tuberculosis (n = 1). Twenty nine (69%) had extrapulmonary ARDS: sepsis (n = 16) and scrub typhus (n = 8). Thirty three (79%) died, of the nine survivors scrub typhus was diagnosed in seven patients. Conclusion The aetiology of ARDS in tropical medical setting is infection related. ARDS due to scrub typhus appeared to be mild with good outcome.
