Higher incidence of new atrial fibrillation in hospitalised COVID-19 patients compared to lower respiratory tract infection, however, less patients prescribed anticoagulants at discharge

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

Infection contributes to developing cardiac arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation (AF), which causes over 25% of ischaemic stroke. We analysed a hospital coding database of patients hospitalised with Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) ± AF or a lower

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Cardiovascular and Aortic Disease: A Narrative Review on Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), composed of DNA, histones, and antimicrobial proteins, are released by neutrophils in response to pathogens but are also recognized for their involvement in a range of pathological processes, including

Beyond Borders of the Cell: How Extracellular Vesicles Shape COVID-19 for People with Cystic Fibrosis

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

The interaction between extracellular vesicles (EVs) and SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, especially in people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) is insufficiently studied. EVs are small membrane-bound particles involved in cell-cell communications

An Approach for Engineering Peptides for Competitive Inhibition of the SARS-COV-2 Spike Protein

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

SARS-CoV-2 is the virus responsible for a respiratory disease called COVID-19 that devastated global public health. Since 2020, there has been an intense effort by the scientific community to develop safe and effective prophylactic and therapeutic

Evaluating Mortality Predictors in COVID-19 Intensive Care Unit Patients: Insights into Age, Procalcitonin, Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio, Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio, and Ferritin Lactate Index

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

CONCLUSIONS: Our study highlights significant predictors of mortality in COVID-19 ICU patients, including advanced age, elevated procalcitonin, FL index levels, the PLR, and the NLR.

The Stability of Social and Behavioral Rhythms and Unexpected Low Rate of Relevant Depressive Symptoms in Old Adults during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Saturday, April 13, 2024 - 4:00 AM

Background: The disruption of social rhythms was found to be associated with depressive disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic; lower rates of these disorders were surprisingly found in old adults. The present study aims to verify the stability of
