This review aimed to summarise the relative risk (RR) of the main symptoms of long COVID in people infected with SARS-CoV-2 compared to uninfected controls, as well as the difference in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after infection. MEDLINE
CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: We observed a spike in antipsychotic prescribing in the dementia and care home groups, which correlated with lockdowns and was likely due to prescribing of antipsychotics for palliative care. We observed gradual increases
CONCLUSION-: Industries that consistently had disproportionate burden of the COVID-19 mortality may have benefitted from protections that consider workers' increased exposure and vulnerability to severe outcomes.
CONCLUSION: The MCP-1 gene polymorphism had no impact on COVID-19 severity. However, to confirm these results, a large-scale study needs to be conducted.
College immunization policies vary. To evaluate the landscape of college immunization programs, we distributed a 45-item survey to college health administrators between July and September 2021. Items measured perceptions of institutionally
CONCLUSIONS: Swift adoption of evidence driven protocols has resulted in comparable wait times for breast cancer ablative procedures. However, utilization of autologous techniques and wait times to second-stage reconstructions have increased.
The range of clinical manifestations associated with the infection by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) encompasses a broad spectrum, ranging from flu-like symptoms to the occurrence of multiple organ failure and death
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe respiratory condition characterized by increased lung permeability, hyper-inflammatory state, and fluid leak into the alveolar spaces. ARDS is a heterogeneous disease, with multiple direct and
CONCLUSION: A vast majority of patients with long-haul COVID-19 had some degree of ongoing olfactory complications, although the severity of symptoms was not dependent on the dominant SARS-CoV-2 variant at the time of infection.
