Prolonged grief disorder (PGD), a new diagnosis in some classification systems, has gained prominence due to the high mortality rates observed during the Covid-19 pandemic. Herein, the prevalence of PGD (diagnosed with structured clinical interviews)
Mutations in spike (S) protein epitopes allow SARS-CoV-2 variants to evade antibody responses induced by infection and/or vaccination. In contrast, mutations in glycosylation sites across SARS-CoV-2 variants are very rare, making glycans a potential
BACKGROUND: With the global continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, the large-scale administration of a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine is crucial to achieve herd immunity and curtail further spread of the virus, but success is contingent on public understanding
CONCLUSIONS: This intervention was able to reduce depression and suicidality during adverse experiences when rewarding events were diminished, such as pandemics.

We present a case report of pneumoperitoneum, pneumomediastinum, and subcutaneous emphysema in a patient with COVID-19 pneumonia-causing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) without any pneumothorax occurring. Pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic has challenged healthcare systems worldwide since late 2019. The interleukin-6 inhibitor tocilizumab is one of the most studied agents with a proven benefit for patients with
CONCLUSION: Psychosocial difficulties and the level of stress differ in ESRD patients undergoing HD and KT recipients; therefore, psychosocial interventions should be tailored for each patient group.
Patients undergoing kidney transplantation have a poor response to vaccination and a higher risk of disease progression of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The effectiveness of vaccine doses and antibody titer tests
