Strength and durability of indirect protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection through vaccine and infection-acquired immunity by Sophia T. Tan, Isabel Rodríguez-Barraquer, Ada T. Kwan, Seth Blumberg, Hailey J. Park, Justine Hutchinson, David Leidner, Joseph A. Lewnard, David Sears, Nathan C. Lo

“…Here, we show that both vaccine-derived and infection-acquired immunity independently yield indirect protection to close social contacts with key differences in their strength and waning. Analyzing anonymized SARS-CoV-2 surveillance data from 9,625 residents in California state prisons from December 2021 to December 2022, we find that vaccine-derived indirect protection against Omicron SARS-CoV-2 infection is strongest within three months of COVID-19 vaccination [30% (95% confidence interval: 20–38%)] with subsequent modest protection. …”

Resin-Dentin Bonding Interface: Mechanisms of Degradation and Strategies for Stabilization of the Hybrid Layer by D. E. Betancourt, P. A. Baldion, J. E. Castellanos

“…Several studies have shown that the dentin-resin interface is unstable due to poor infiltration of resin monomers into the demineralized dentin matrix. This phenomenon is related to the incomplete infiltration of the adhesive system into the network of exposed collagen fibrils, mainly due to the difficulty of displacement and subsequent replacement of trapped water between interfibrillar spaces, avoiding adequate hybridization within the network of collagen fibrils. …”
