COVID-19 pneumonia presents several particularities in its clinical presentation (cytokine storm, silent hypoxemia, thrombo-embolic risk) and may lead to a number of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) phenotypes. While the optimal oxygenation
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 and its variants are still a concern for the World. The effectiveness of the BioNTech and Sinovac vaccines against the B.1.617.2 variant, particularly in the intensive care unit, has been unclear. This
Hookworm, a parasitic infection, retains a considerable burden of disease, affecting the most underprivileged segments of the general population in endemic countries and remains one of the leading causes of mild to severe anemia in Low and Middle
Life-long persistent herpesviruses carry "trans-inducers" to overcome the unusual codon usage of their glycoproteins for efficient expression. Strikingly, this "trans-inducibility" can be achieved by simply changing the codon-usage of acute virus
CONCLUSIONS: Greater variability in microvasculature perfusion occurs at sites of macular ischemia due to BRVO. We report a novel way for quantifying macular perfusion variability using OCTA. This technique may have applicability for studying the
