Acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated cerebellar ataxia without multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) or encephalopathy in children has been rarely reported. We reviewed medical records of hospitalized children who had
CONCLUSIONS: Beginning in the late 2021, excess cerebrovascular deaths coincided with the spread of the Omicron variant and may be associated with increased healthcare burden. In 2020, COVID-19 altered the geography of cerebrovascular deaths, with
CONCLUSIONS: There is a certain proportion of term late infants testing positive for EV nucleic acid in throat swabs during the COVID-19 epidemic, but the proportion is low. The clinical manifestations and laboratory test results of these infants are
We demonstrate a smartphone integrated handheld (SPEED) digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) device for point-of-care application. The device has dimensions of ≈100 × 200 × 35 mm³ and a weight of ≈400 g. It can perform 45 PCR cycles in ≈49 min
The Covid-19 pandemic and ongoing war in Ukraine caused unprecedented disruption in healthcare, including cytopathology activities. This paper elucidates the effect of two consecutive disasters-the COVID-19 pandemic followed by the war-on
SARS-CoV-2 enters cells via binding of the surface-exposed spike protein RBD to host cell ACE2 receptors. Therefore, in this study, we designed a scFv (single-chain fragment variable) based on the amino acid sequence of CC12.1, a neutralizing
CONCLUSION: Several studies reported elevated levels of profibrotic miRNAs in COVID-19 context. In addition, the balance of antifibrotic miRNAs responsible of the modulation of fibrotic processes is impaired in COVID-19. This evidence suggests that
