The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, driven by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has led to an unprecedented global surge in infections and fatalities. Notably, obesity has emerged as an important
A modular, multi-purpose, and cost-effective electrochemical biosensor based on a five-stranded four-way junction (5S-4WJ) system was developed for SARS-CoV-2 (genes S and N) and Influenza A virus (gene M) detection. The 5S-4WJ structure consists of
Monitoring for COVID-19 through wastewater has been used for adjunctive public health surveillance, with SARS-CoV-2 viral concentrations in wastewater correlating with incident cases in the same sewershed. However, the generalizability of these
CONCLUSION: Revision total knee arthroplasty patients diagnosed with COVID-19 postoperatively had increased rates of thromboembolic events, pneumoniae, and 90-day readmissions. Risk mitigation efforts would suggest extending the prophylactic
Both COVID-19 and vaccinations against it have been related to immune cutaneous manifestations. Here, we present a case of childhood vitiligo, developed after a COVID-19 infection.
CONCLUSIONS: Vaccines induce anti-RBD titers as high as the natural infection with lower neutralization capacity, and it does not boost immunity in pre-infected persons.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings reinforce the importance of examining pre-schoolers' mental health in the context of micro and macro-level factors. Interventions focussing on family factors such as parent mental health, as well as continued provision of
