RESUMEN

Serological testing for anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies is used to detect ongoing or past SARS-CoV-2 infections. To study the kinetics of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and to assess the diagnostic performances of eight serological assays, we used 129 serum samples collected on known days post symptom onset (dpso) from 42 patients with polymerase chain reaction-confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and 54 serum samples from healthy blood donors, and children infected with seasonal coronaviruses. The sera were analyzed for the presence of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin M (IgM), and immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies using indirect immunofluorescence testing (IIFT) based on SARS-CoV-2-infected cells. They were further tested for antibodies against the S1 domain of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (IgG, IgA) and against the viral nucleocapsid protein (IgG, IgM) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The assay specificities were 94.4%-100%. The sensitivities varied largely between assays, reflecting their respective purposes. The sensitivities of IgA and IgM assays were the highest between 11 and 20 dpso, whereas the sensitivities of IgG assays peaked between 20 and 60 dpso. IIFT showed the highest sensitivities due to the use of the whole SARS-CoV-2 as substrate and provided information on whether or not the individual has been infected with SARS-CoV-2. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays provided further information about both the prevalence and concentration of specific antibodies against selected antigens of SARS-CoV-2.

RESUMEN

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus (CCHFV) is a geographically widespread tick-borne arbovirus that has been recognized by the WHO as an emerging pathogen needing urgent attention to ensure preparedness for potential outbreaks. Therefore, availability of accurate diagnostic tools for identification of acute cases is necessary. A panel comprising 121 sequential serum samples collected during acute, convalescent and subsided phase of PCR-proven CCHFV infection from 16 Kosovar patients was used to assess sensitivity. Serum samples from 60 healthy Kosovar blood donors were used to assess specificity. All samples were tested with two IgM/IgG immunofluorescence assays (IFA) from BNITM, the CCHFV Mosaic 2 IgG and IgM indirect immunofluorescence tests (IIFT) from EUROIMMUN, two BlackBox ELISAs for the detection of CCHFV-specific IgM and IgG antibodies (BNITM), two Anti-CCHFV ELISAs IgM and IgG from EUROIMMUN using recombinant structural proteins of CCHFV antigens, and two ELISAs from Vector-Best (IgM: µ-capture ELISA, IgG: indirect ELISA using immobilized CCHFV antigen). Diagnostic performances were compared between methods using sensitivity, specificity, concordance and degree of agreement with particular focus on the phase of the infection. In early and convalescent phases of infection, the sensitivities for detecting specific IgG antibodies differed for the ELISA test. The BlackBox IgG ELISA yielded the highest, followed by the EUROIMMUN IgG ELISA and finally the VectorBest IgG ELISA with the lowest sensitivities. In the subsided phase, the VectorBest IgM ELISA detected a high rate of samples that were positive for anti-CCHFV IgM antibodies. Both test systems based on immunofluorescence showed an identical sensitivity for detection of anti-CCHFV IgM antibodies in acute and convalescent phases of infection. Available serological test systems detect anti-CCHFV IgM and IgG antibodies accurately, but their diagnostic performances vary with respect to the phase of the infection.

RESUMEN

Esta investigação qualitativa teve como objetivo compreender como o modelo de autoridade na família pode influir sobre o planejamento e a realização de projetos vocacionais pelos jovens na sociedade contemporânea. Partindo das novas sintomatologias identificadas (apatia, falta de motivação, condutas fóbicas frente à aprendizagem, abandono dos estudos, fragilidade e falta de consistência dos interesses vocacionais), realizou-se o diagnóstico situacional. Os resultados mostraram a necessidade de intervenção nas relações vinculares presentes na família que levaram à transformação do padrão de autoridade cristalizado como sintoma(AU)
