CONCLUSIONS: Studies reviewed found many members of the public had negative or unclear perceptions of ACP. Improved knowledge and understanding appeared to influence perceptions of ACP but were not considered sufficient to change behaviours. The

CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that prolonged endothelial dysfunction is a hallmark of PCS, and impairments of the microcirculation seem to explain ongoing symptoms in patients. As potential therapies for PCS emerge, RVA parameters may become

The paper presents a novel statistical approach for analyzing the daily coronavirus case and fatality statistics. The survival discretization method was used to generate a two-parameter discrete distribution. The resulting distribution is referred to

Vaccination with different vaccines has been implemented globally to counter the continuous COVID-19 pandemic. However, the vaccine-elicited antibodies have reduced efficiency against the highly mutated Omicron sub-variants. Previously, we developed

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic decreased the operative case volume for surgical residents. Our institution implemented Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs) in all core surgical training programs to document the competency of graduating

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are a fundamental building block of many applications across nanotechnology as they have excellent biosafety which make them promising for a broad range of biomedical applications. Here we explore their in vivo toxicity

A nationwide survey of SARS-CoV-2 antinucleocapsid seroprevalence among blood donors in Japan revealed that, as of November 2022, infection-induced seroprevalence of the population was 28.6% (95% CI 27.6%-29.6%). Seroprevalence studies might

Outbreaks of infectious viruses cause enormous challenges to global public health. Recently, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) induced by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has severely threatened human health and

CONCLUSION: Since there was no difference in clinical improvement between the use of 250 mg or 1000 mg methylprednisolone in patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 infection, 1000 mg methylprednisolone was not required.

CONCLUSIONS: Knowing the diameters of maximum pulmonary artery and maximum ascending aorta and the maximum pulmonary artery-maximum ascending aorta ratio in hospitalized severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2-infected patients is a valuable
