PubMed COVID-19 Clinical Care

International high-risk clones of Klebsiella pneumoniae are important human pathogens that are spreading to the environment. In the COVID-19 pandemic scenario, the frequency of carbapenemase-producing strains increased, which can contribute to the

CONCLUSIONS: Genome sequencing, a key strategy in genomic surveillance systems, helps to detect and monitor the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 variants, monitor the viral evolution of SARS-CoV-2, identify new variants for disease prevention, control, and

BACKGROUND: Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir (Paxlovid) and ensitrelvir are 3-chymotrypsin-like cysteine protease (3CL^(pro)) inhibitors which have been approved for the treatment of COVID-19 in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Previous studies have identified 3CL

Viruses remain the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (AGE) worldwide. Recently, we reported the abundance of AGE viruses in raw sewage water (SW) during the COVID-19 pandemic, when viral AGE patients decreased dramatically in clinics. Since

CONCLUSIONS: We argue that the pandemic presents concurrent "natural experiments" that can advance our understanding of the intricate ways in which global shocks produce direct, indirect, and spillover effects on local and regional landscapes and

BACKGROUND: Some human polymorphisms of ACE1, ACE2, IFITM3, TMPRSS2 and TNFα genes may have an effect on the susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection and increase the risk to develop severe COVID-19. We conducted a systematic review of current evidence

CONCLUSION: The quantitative findings suggest that gender influences nurses' perception of caring. The qualitative findings demonstrate that nurses regard themselves as both recipients and implementers of caring. The qualitative results indicate

A growing body of work clearly documents the gendered inequalities in health. The COVID-19 pandemic further exposed these deep inequities: men appear to be more vulnerable to poorer outcomes, but most of the global health workforce is female who are

Immune response to vaccines and pathogens remains unclear in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). To investigate this, a single-center retrospective study was conducted with 47 SLE patients vaccinated against COVID-19, including 13 who

People vary both in their embrace of their society's traditions, and in their perception of hazards as salient and necessitating a response. Over evolutionary time, traditions have offered avenues for addressing hazards, plausibly resulting in
