CONCLUSION: During the pandemic, new mothers and birth partners experienced fewer distractions, better communication with the hospital staff, and had better opportunities to bond with the newborn during labor and after birth, but did report missing
Severe COVID-19 outcomes have been reported in people living with HIV (PLWH), yet the underlying pathogenetic factors are largely unknown. We therefore aimed to assess SARS-CoV-2 RNAemia and plasma cytokines in PLWH hospitalized for COVID-19
CONCLUSION: Female sex, presence of COPD, rheumatic disease, hospitalization type and requirement of mechanical ventilation during index infection were identified as significant risk factors for the diagnosis of Long COVID. These findings emphasize
CONCLUSIONS: Nursing students were willing to work with patients with COVID-19 during the pandemic; however, a longitudinal study is recommended for trend analysis.
SARS-CoV-2 has infected over 340 million people, prompting therapeutic research. While genetic studies can highlight potential drug targets, understanding the heritability of SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility and COVID-19 severity can contextualize their
CONCLUSIONS: This study has used novel national data linkages to identify potential risk factors of workplace COVID-19 outbreaks, including possible protective effects of vaccination and increased physical distance at work. The same methodological
CONCLUSIONS: High age-adjusted NT-proBNP levels at the time of hospital admission for COVID-19 are associated with poor short and long-term prognosis. High NT-proBNP seems also to be related to worse prognosis in survivors of the acute phase of COVID
CONCLUSION: Patients with low age, long education, or employment had higher odds of a VC, while patients with high age and retired patients had lower odds. This difference in the access to VCs warrants further attention.
