The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 has demonstrated that emerging variants can set back the global COVID-19 response. The ability to rapidly assess the threat of new variants is critical for timely optimisation of control strategies. We present a novel
CONCLUSIONS: In 158 hospitalized COVID-19 patients with respiratory failure evaluated for suspected PE, 40.8% patients had a positive CTA. We identified clinical predictors of PE and mortality from PE, which may help with early identification and
During pregnancy the maternal-fetal interface plays vital roles in fetal development. Its disruption is frequently found in pregnancy complications. Recent studies show increased incidences of adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with COVID-19
CONCLUSION: COVID-19 has negative consequences on various aspects of general health and voice-related QOL. Two months after recovery from COVID-19, the patients had the worst scores in all subscales of SF-36 and also, decreased physical, emotional
CONCLUSION: The performance of Ag-RDTs was optimized when asymptomatic participants tested 3 times at 48-hour intervals and when symptomatic participants tested 2 times separated by 48 hours.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that prior COVID-19 infection is a significant risk factor for adverse outcomes after autologous breast reconstruction. Patients with a history of COVID-19 have 183% higher odds of postoperative thromboembolic events
COVID-19 is still around, and in the most severe cases can rapidly progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome. When mechanical ventilation fails to improve oxygenation, we desperately shift our management to venovenous extracorporeal membrane
CONCLUSION: The use of lean management tool to allocate nursing human resources plays a positive role in ensuring zero infection of nurses, improving the cure rate of common patients and reducing the mortality rate of critically ill patients with
