Abstract Pathologic immune hyperactivation is emerging as a key feature of critical illness in COVID-19, but the mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We carried out proteomic profiling plasma from cross-sectional and longitudinal cohorts hospitalized patients with COVID-19 analyzed clinical data our health system database more than 3300 patients. Using machine learning algorithm, we identified prominent signature neutrophil activation, including resistin, lipocalin-2, hepatocyte...

Abstract Thrombotic complications occur at high rates in hospitalized patients with COVID‐19, yet the impact of intensive antithrombotic therapy on mortality is uncertain. We examined in‐hospital intermediate‐ compared to prophylactic‐dose anticoagulation, and separately aspirin no antiplatelet therapy, a large, retrospective study 2785 adult COVID‐19 patients. In this analysis, we established two separate, nested cohorts (a) who received or anticoagulation (“anticoagulation cohort”, N =...

Background: Since the approval of oral factor Xa inhibitors, there have been concerns regarding ability to neutralize their anticoagulant effects after intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Multiple guidelines suggest using prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs) in these patients on basis research that includes a limited number with ICH. Given this, we aimed evaluate safety and efficacy PCCs for inhibitor–related ICH large, multicenter cohort patients. Methods: This was multicenter, retrospective,...

Evidence‐based management of analgesia and sedation in COVID‐19‐associated acute respiratory distress syndrome remains limited. Non‐guideline recommended analgesic sedative medication regimens deeper targets have been employed for patients with COVID‐19 due to exaggerated requirements extended durations mechanical ventilation. This, coupled a desire minimize nurse entry into patient rooms, marked obesity, altered end‐organ function, evolving shortages, presents numerous short‐ long‐term...

Thrombotic complications occur at high rates in hospitalized patients with COVID-19, yet the impact of intensive antithrombotic therapy on mortality is uncertain. How does in-hospital compare intermediate- versus prophylactic-dose anticoagulation, and separately aspirin no antiplatelet therapy, treatment COVID-19? Using data from 2785 adult COVID-19 patients, we established two separate, nested cohorts (1) who received or anticoagulation ("anticoagulation cohort", N = 1624), (2) were not...

Labour mobility has been extensively studied in China and the European Union (EU). However, there very little attempt to compare internal migration EU China. This article provides an account of initial exploratory quantitative comparison Chinese migration. The first makes case for comparing context growing literature on international comparisons Problems data definition are then explored, a review undertaken identify which determinants could be used as basis comparative study.
