PubMed COVID-19 Clinical Care

Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes (referred to as HLA or HLA in humans) are a key component of vertebrate immune systems, coding for proteins which present antigens to T-cells. These genes are outstanding in their degree of polymorphism

Patients suffering from neuro-inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) remain vulnerable to COVID-19. We investigated the risk of COVID-19 in MS and NMOSD patients over time

Both 25-autoimmunity and(25(OH)D: calcifediol) and its active form, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)(2)D: calcitriol), play critical roles in protecting humans from invasive pathogens, reducing risks of autoimmunity, and maintaining health

CONCLUSION: VAP is a common complication in COVID-19 patients. In contrast to already published studies, in our study implementing a structured microbiological monitoring program, COVID-19 patients with bacterial coinfection or VAP did not show

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has sparked an urgent demand for advanced diagnosis and vaccination worldwide. The discovery of high-affinity ligands is of great significance for vaccine and diagnostic reagent manufacturing

(1) Background: SARS-COV2 infection has a clinical spectrum ranging from asymptomatic infection to COVID-19 with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Although vitamin D deficiency is often found in patients with ARDS, its role in COVID-19 is

The XBB.1.16 SARS-CoV-2 variant, also known as Arcturus, is a recent descendant lineage of the recombinant XBB (nicknamed Gryphon). Compared to its direct progenitor, XBB.1, XBB.1.16 carries additional spike mutations in key antigenic sites

CONCLUSIONS: Despite the safety measures taken in place, patients felt anxious about dental appointments during the COVID-19 pandemic.

CONCLUSIONS: Inequality in COVID-19 vaccination in Africa was high. Promoting adequate information to the general population and providing financial and logistical support to low-income countries can help expand COVID-19 vaccination in Africa.

At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, organizations providing residential and respite care for individuals with developmental disabilities and complex care needs in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) were largely unprepared. As case
