The editors of Healthcare Quarterly (HQ) recently had the opportunity to speak with Heather Patterson - emergency physician, photographer and author of the recently released book Shadows and Light (Patterson 2022). Through the photographs she took at

CONCLUSIONS: Automated, quantitative, smartphone-based detection of cough is feasible in hospitalised patients and correlates with disease activity in lower respiratory tract infections. Our approach allows for near real-time telemonitoring of

CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests that strategic, targeted science communication efforts may have the potential to change state legislators' public discourse and use of evidence. Strategic science communication efforts are particularly needed in light

The rapid spread of the SARS-CoV-2 Variant of Concern (VOC) Gamma in Amazonas during early 2021 fueled a second large COVID-19 epidemic wave and raised concern about the potential role of reinfections. Very few cases of reinfection associated with

CONCLUSIONS: SARS-CoV-2 infection may have a role in the increase of tics and associated comorbidities in TS patients. Despite of these preliminary results, further investigations are necessary to improve knowledge about the acute and long-term

CONCLUSION: Diaphragm function was impaired during hospitalisation for COVID-19. During recovery in hospital and up to 1-year follow-up, diaphragm TF improved, suggesting a long recovery time of the diaphragm. Diaphragm ultrasound may be a valuable

Multiple recent reports indicate that the S protein of SARS-CoV-2 specifically interacts with membrane receptors and attachment factors other than ACE2. They likely have an active role in cellular attachment and entry of the virus. In this article

Community-clinical linkage models (CCLM) have the potential to reduce health disparities, especially in underserved communities; however, the COVID-19 pandemic drastically impacted their implementation. This paper explores the impact of the pandemic

Autoimmune polyglandular syndromes (APS) are rare disorders characterized by the coexistence of endocrine and non-endocrine dysfunctions mediated by autoimmune mechanisms. Autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1 is defined as coexistence of chronic

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) inactivation of pH-dependent graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets is presented. The observed virus inactivation using an authentic virus (Delta variant) and different GO dispersions at pH 3, 7
