Abstract The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of a rapidly spreading illness, disease 2019 (COVID-19), affecting more than seventeen million people around world. Diagnosis and treatment guidelines for clinicians caring patients are needed. In early stage, we have issued “A rapid advice guideline diagnosis (2019-nCoV) infected pneumonia (standard version)”; now there many direct evidences emerged may change some previous recommendations it ripe...
Sepsis is a lethal and complex clinical syndrome caused by infection or suspected infection. Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) widely distributed cold-shock that plays proinflammatory role in sepsis may induce organ damage. However, studies regarding the use of CIRP for prognostic evaluation are lacking. The purpose this research was to investigate significance peripheral blood concentrations sepsis. assessed using several common measures, including Acute Physiology Chronic Health...
COVID-19 patients may experience "cytokine storm" when human immune system produces excessive cytokines/chemokines. However, it remains unclear whether early responses of inflammatory cytokines would lead to high or low titers anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.
Trauma is the leading cause of death and disability for individuals under age 55. Many severely injured trauma patients experience complicated clinical courses despite appropriate initial therapy. We sought to identify novel circulating metabolomic signatures associated with outcomes following trauma.Untargeted metabolomics plasma immune mediator analysis was performed on collected during 3 post-injury time periods (<6 hours [h], 6 h-24h, day 2-day 5) in critically ill enrolled between April...
Background: The epidemiological and clinical characteristics of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients in the cities near to Wuhan remain not very clear. Methods: data COVID-19 hospitalized Public Health Treatment Center Changsha, China were collected analyzed. Findings: Of 242 with COVID-19, median age was 45 years old (range, 1-84 years) 50.8% women. 41.3% had a exposure history, which one Huanan seafood market history. Three medical staff infected, only doctor's infection deemed be...
Objective Association of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) use with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remains controversial. We aimed to investigate the impact ACEI/ARB on all-cause mortality in severe COVID-19 patients hypertension. Methods enrolled 650 from Changsha and Wuhan city between 17 January 2020 8 March 2020. Demographic, clinical characteristics, outcomes were collected. Multivariable analysis propensity-score matching...
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused substantial threats to people's physical health and lives, claiming the lives of over 6 million people worldwide. Although mortality rate COVID-19 is very low, many survivors may have different degrees various sequelae. Previous studies shown that pulmonary fibrosis (PF) were common on discharged patients, PF itself a poor prognostic factor.227 hospitalized patients' clinical laboratory data from first 15 days following admission...
Background Cigarette smoking has been proven to be a risk factor in the development of many diseases. However, it remains controversial with respect relationship COVID-19. The purpose this study was explore role Methods A total 622 patients COVID-19 China were enrolled study. Corresponding clinical and laboratory data collected analyzed. Meanwhile, Kaplan-Meier curve Cox regression analysis employed analyze association survival Results Smoking statistically significant comparing...
Triglyceride to high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-c) is crucial when researching metabolic and vascular diseases, its involvement in COVID-19 was sparsely elaborated on. The purpose of the study explore inflammatory associations between TG/HDL-c prognosis.A total 262 patients consisting 244 survivors 18 non-survivors were retrospectively investigated. clinical features baseline hematological parameters recorded analyzed. receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) used...
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused substantial threats to people's physical health and lives, claiming the lives of over 5 million people worldwide. It is imperative identify severity intervene with effective therapy as early possible. Previous studies have shown that low free triiodothyronine (FT3) may possess predictive value on COVID-19 prognosis.In this retrospective cohort study, 15-day clinical laboratory data 186 hospitalized patients after admission were...
