CONCLUSIONS: Patients who recover from COVID-19 have a high prevalence of subtle RV and LV dysfunction using GLS analysis. A moderate to severe episode was associated with worse RV and LV function measured by RV GLS, TAPSE, and LV GLS. Subjects with
CONCLUSIONS: The COVID-19 pandemic has lowered the threshold for switching from practice- or hospital-based ERT to home therapy or to SRT. No major GD complication was documented during the pandemic. Infection rate with SARS-CoV-2 in GD may rather be
INTRODUCTION: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. It was initially detected in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. In March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO)
CONCLUSIONS: Despite the catastrophic health, socio-economic and political crises associated with the COVID-19 emergency, it has also resulted in some positive health outcomes. Reduced air pollutants, improved disease prevention practices, increased
Two decades ago a research team clarified that cross-sectional associations of risk perceptions and protective behavior can only test an "accuracy" hypothesis: e.g., people with higher risk perceptions at T(i) should also exhibit low protective
Can messaging that emphasizes the costs of COVID-19 increase popular support for more proactive public health policies? People who experience disasters often become more supportive of policies to address their underlying causes, and the pandemic may
The molecular mechanism of the pathological impact of COVID-19 in lung cancer patients remains poorly understood to date. In this study, we used differential gene expression pattern analysis to try to figure out the possible disease mechanism of
